i'm still mad that the comics are going to be a reboot

but yay FINALLY.

syntheticjesso October 15 2009, 03:26:41 UTC

They are? How so?

foutu October 15 2009, 03:29:54 UTC

dunno. :/ it's also going to have zombies.

dabble_boy October 15 2009, 07:55:24 UTC

Well my understanding of zombie wasn't that they're necessarily gonna eat people or anything, but it's just gonna be a bunch of dead folk ambling around, not squawking for brains or anything.

I imagine part of the sell was to make it have some appeal to people who mostly read comic books that don't already crossover into watching PD. I figured it would be something like the Buffy season 8 in comic form in that they'll amp up stuff that they wouldn't have the budget for in a live action show. (Or necessarily any interest in as a 44 minute episode or story arc.)

I still kind of wish for a movie (theater or made for TV) but that Wonderfalls dream went nowhere and I'm willing to settle for anything. When's it supposed to come out? The details are so sparse that last I heard I thought it was supposed to be Oct/Nov of either this or next year. (And it is gonna be from DC right?)

i personally think that cheno's emmy win should've persuaded abc to put them back on air.

christinadagood October 15 2009, 03:56:18 UTC

but, i'll just deal with the comics

loorea October 15 2009, 03:57:19 UTC

christinadagood October 15 2009, 03:59:21 UTC

So... the comics are supposed to be... what, exactly? I heard they were kind of a prequel, but... won't Chuck be in them?

We need closure on season two, dang it.

I heard that it doesn't pick up right where we left off, but that everything you (or any new PD fans) need to know is addressed in the first comic. Treat this series as a separate adventure of the gang. It's not a direct continuation and it's not a remake of the show. That's what I got from Fuller.

clau019 October 15 2009, 13:42:04 UTC

But didn't Bryan say that the comics would feature what would have happened if the show had gone on?

aggiegurl22 October 16 2009, 08:56:53 UTC

I think so, but I took that to mean that storylines will be tied up, but that the comics won't follow the same episode formula. In my mind, they're off having some adventure away from the Pie Hole. Am I even making any sense? I really need sleep. I could be completely wrong. He was so vague on the details that I don't know what to expect. Take what I say with a grain of salt. =)
