THE OLD GUARD #1 - GEM OF THE MONTH
STORY: GREG RUCKA
ART / COVER: LEANDRO FERNANDEZ
FEBRUARY 22 / 40 PAGES/ FC / M / $3.99
Eisner-winning writer GREG RUCKA (LAZARUS, BLACK MAGICK, Wonder Woman) and critically acclaimed artist LEANDRO FERNANDEZ (THE DISCIPLINE, Deadpool, Punisher: MAX) team up together to introduce THE OLD GUARD, the story of old soldiers who never die…and yet cannot seem to fade away.
Trapped in an immortality without explanation, Andromache of Scythia—“Andy”—and her comrades ply their trade for those who can find—and afford—their services. But in the 21st century, immortality is a hard secret to keep, and when you live long enough, you learn that there are many fates worse than death.

So the Scythians are semi-famous for having women fight. Herodotus says that a clan of Scythian warrior women are the origin of the myth of the Amazons, and semi-recently the discovery of a bunch of women's skeletons buried as Scythian "elites", their warriors, set off another round of that.
I don't think that this is particularly a fantasy comic though, or if it is it's modern age running off the fumes of a couple of Scythian/Amazon myths (fun fact: the Scythians also brought weed to Europe). So it's very WW.

Kinda feeling the same.
What are the most out-there ongoing Image comics? I feel like everything is essentially light sci-fi/fantasy or horror. I'd love to see other genres (or even non-genre) stuff crop up. Like why hasn't anyone pitched a war or western that isn't some stupid fucking rehashed horror mashup?

>>87869141
I am straight up not a Hickman fan but the BMM is easily my favourite, and what I think is the best, of everything he's done. The occultism he's tapping feels more focused and more constructed - more in tune with a plot - and the characters so far actually all have distinct voices and sound as least as human as humans on TV.
I have a decent opinion of his F4 too. Very little else.
>>
>>87868865
You arent proving anything except that you are triggered anytime someone says the character being a female warrior is redundant.
>>
>>87869179
I still remember his as the guy who got me to read an Avengers title; also Secret Warriors still holds up. BMM for me hits the mark with the economic history of the powerful families, and how much of our world is shaped by these families handing down money through generation after generation.

If you read comics my point is in clear view. Most new Image fantasy titles have a female protagonist for no reason other than her being female, which is fine. What is not fine is its every damn new fantasy book that comes out. There needs to be some variation especially when its such a small genre.

lol, speaking in the passive tone and expecting to be taken seriously.
Also, stop being such a Sad Puppy about the whole thing. Was there a time when women weren't used to sell comics I'm not aware of? The first comics were written by women for women; when men started writing for men, they put women on the cover. Now, men and women write for men and women, and there are still hot chicks on the covers.
tl;dr history is cyclical; stop bitching.
>>
>>87869498
anon has provided nothing to argue against except hurr durr I'm not raciss stop oppressing me
seriously why wouldn't you make every comic in the world about female warriors?
If we produced nothing but that for 20 year comics would still be mostly about male protagonists

Semi-related, I really wish we'd get a Conan-style comic but with a more...feminine approach? Something like IDW Conan, where the reader is clearly meant to find him attractive. When it comes to half-naked barbarians, they could play with the female gaze a little bit more.

>>87870222
To be fair most writers don't really write a lot of female characters in genre comics so in that sense he's bucking the trend but as you say he ALWAYS does the same thing. At least give us another ethnicity of women or write about old women or a young girl or something.

>>87870290
No, the shirtless dude is just a shirtless dude. I think the people who buy that subgenre of comics consistently are faggots in a general sense who also just happen to be attracted to men.
>>
>>87870322
See but the issue here is your free association skills. You associate those kinds of comics with faggots. Ie seeing that guy shirtless makes you think of faggots. Ie you are thinking homosexual thoughts as soon as you see them. You are a textbook homosexual denying his sexuality.

They might, they've picked up a few series that way. Stray Bullets for example.
Usually that's only if the publisher is dead/unable to continue publishing the comic though.

>>87870921
Yes pretty much.
>>
>>87870921
Like Vertigo in terms of originality, but with $9.99 first volumes and $1 #1s.
Vertigo is still trying to be Vertigo (although I'm happy to have Lucifer back, and Sheriff of Babylon was good).
>>
>>87870921
Kinda. Because of Vertigo's weird copyright rules, Image is a hotspot for writers that are trying to get their comics turned into TV Shows/Movies.
Image is really less a comic company and more of a Publishing Stable. If you can pitch it, they'll publish it.

I like Rucka, so I'd argue his protagonists are very different to each other even if they are mostly women of a similar age. But I was genuinely surprised when I picked up his Atticus Kodiak novels and discovered he wasn't a woman.
