Do Androids Dream of Better Comics? | |
Even if you are making the first original comic set in the legendary Blade Runner universe (previous comics were adaptations of the movie and the novel on which it was based), you still have to make the comic GOOD. The art, atmosphere, and production value are great. Not much else is. The main character, Ash, is bland and uninspired. The author follows the modern trend of making a character that has a lot of descriptors, but no personality. Ash is a physically-disabled visible-minority female, but she isn’t engaging. She isn’t exciting. She lacks the down-on-her-luck world-weary elements of Deckard from the movie and book and Ray McCoy from the PC game. She lacks the badass properties of Crystal, the tough bounty-hunting lady from the game. She comes off as a stale cyberpunk cliché, one less creative than the trenchcoat-wearing protagonist of the Dex video game. Couple the bland character with a story that hits the reader over the head with a “Corporations Are Bad” theme (even though that IS true, it was not a key point of the film or book) and pretends that Replicants are some kind of oppressed people (even though they are manufactured machines -- are we supposed to feel bad for our refrigerators and air conditioners?) and what you’re left with is something akin to a broken Spinner – it just can’t get off the ground, and ends up going nowhere. An artbook of visual futurist Syd Mead’s Blade Runner drawings and concept art would’ve been more worth the time of any fan of the classic cyberpunk film. |
