the pozz will be off the charts

>It's another clubbing someone to death with a rotting severed horse cock episode

>it's another murdering a bunch of cannibalistic kindergartners with a shotgun and hunting rifle blasts to the face as they sit and cry episode

What the fuck was Garth ennis thinking with that story about the comics nerds raping some female comic writer and in the end she kills them all with the help of a interratial gay couple and she leaves the comic book store and walks fine in a street filled with crosseds?

Ennis isn't subtle.

>its another hollowing out your mother's corpse and crawling inside her to return to the womb episode

>Not his Punisher MAX or Hellblazer
Only good things he's done

eh, it all felt a little edgy for the sake of edgy, not to mention the pace is honestly lighting quick, too much to be honest. Felt like I barely got to know anyone

It was so shit they care more about sending a message than writing a decent story

>its another got infected by raping your clearly infected 7 year old daughter episode

Probably the best Superman writer out there too.

Hitman was his best work.

Did Ennis write that one?

Yeah i remember a story about a group in a frozen place and there's was a sniper who burned his body and he say he was the prince harry (you never know if he was saying the true)
But in the next part literally in the first page they show you the crossed killing him it was so anticlimatic it never shows you how they got him in the first place

I tried with Preacher and I hated it so much
fucking terrible writing
not even going to bother with The Boys
fuck you Seth

He is the creator of this stuff so i think he read the scripts before giving green light

I kinda like the concept of not getting attached to anyone because they could die at any minute. It's why I liked the Feast films.

Ennis is pretty hands off and let's people do what they want so long as they don't try to stop the apocalypse going on from what I understand.

Is that the one with the dirty sanchez guy?

I'm sure if they ever adapted it into anything else they'd tone down the needless violence and have it make more logical sense. Like the disease just makes you go crazy instead of some bullshit about how everyone is a sadistic murdering rapist on the inside and the disease lets it out or something. Like sure even that sweet loving family would totally murder and rape each other if they could.

It can be more easily milked than walking dead. Random episodes where nothing happens and then some edgy shit happens

>tone down the needless violence

So make it not Crossed then.

Pretty much. The very concept is fucking retarded, but you can take that and make something better out of it.

Toned down violent disease spreading already happened with the Crazies.

Why are you against the idea of ultra violent, rape happy, completely monstrous representations of humans?

Happened with 28 days later and basically fast zombie stuff too.

Crossed is a pretty good example of horror really. An impossible situation, you have no control over it, the cause is basically unknown or only basically understood, you can't change the situation but if you are very lucky you might survive it. The very fact that people are repulsed by what happens means the medium does a good job of conveying the stuff going on, because it isn't supposed to inflict another response. I can also respect the series for doing a good job of avoiding the foibles of having a happy romance plot or some kind of heroic character because that shit gets you killed during such scenarios.

Nothing necessarily wrong with that so much as they drop the whole "HURR THIS IS WHAT EVERYONE IS LIKE ON THE INSIDE" angle. Like those kids who put their parents in a woodchipper or whatever and use their guts for a waterslide. Like any kid would think to do something like that. It doesn't even make sense to compare that sort of shit with the horrible things that normal people are capable of doing the way the comic does. Just drop the whole pretentious message about how the Crossed are no different than regular people.

garth ennis is the perfect mix of cringe edgy dumb shit while at the same time somehow having genuinely funny dialogue and engaging characters.

I don't really get how he does it.

Have humans not shoved other humans in wood chippers or done stuff with their organs before? Wear human faces as decorations? Rape murder victims?

Humans are violent, destructive, and debased without a virus cranking that aspect of us up to 11. Putting our absolute worst aspects on the forefront while keeping our imagination and intellect intact very much might generate such levels of destruction and debauchery.

Wish You Were Here is the only good Crossed comic

>it's another boardwalk covered entirely in human skin episode

no way they could capture the violence, but there could be some kino
