Supernatural Origins #1

[samvara]

A six issue comic book 'prequel'.

I have mixed feelings about this. The visual style is not one I'm attracted to; it looks very rough and half done. This may be deliberate and is appropriate to the show in that it's surreal, dark and grim looking.

I'd like to know more about whether the content is supposed to support the show or whether it's an AU spinoff because based on my first reading it is the latter. The overall quality isn’t so high that I'd continue to read it on it's own merit, but I would read it for back-story.

I like the idea of this. I always feel like there's backstory I've missed to supernatural (thus my confusion at ur psychic kids post). I re-watched the episodes earlier in the year and was surprised to see I'd seen all but two.

Hey I've just read the first three Buffy Season 8 comics. I'm lovvvvvvvvvvvvvving them. And I finally got Anita Blake Guilty Pleasures issue 1 so I can read them all in order (I have up to 6).

It's a very comicy week!

Ah well that was partly me assuming... [hides]

I've got Buffy #1 but haven't picked up the next 2 yet. Happy happy.

Guilty Pleasures? Can I borrow or are you all packed up and ready to go?
