Hey /co/ heard some good reviews so I picked up the first trade a couple days ago. My question is this: Am I missing something? It's an admittedly cool concept, but I feel like it's mired by cringeworthy writing, which really surprised me cause this is the same guy that did Fear Itself and 2012 Hawkeye. Susie and Jon's dialogue seem really juvenile and as though a teenager wrote everything. Even the artwork is kinda bad after you spend a decent amount of time looking at it.
What does /co/ think of Sex Criminals? Am I alone? Does it get better?

Why are you implying Fear Itself and Hawkeye were well-written?

Anon, Fear Itself was absolute dogshit.

I appreciated Hawkeye cause it was a breath of fresh air at the time. I think it got bad pretty fast. And fuck you I like Fear Itself.

Was Fear Itself that bad? What did I miss?

Yeah I only read the first trade, but I got real tired of every issue starting in medias res " Okay this looks bad" then a flashback

That's fair.

It gets better.
And then it gets a lot worse.
I'm STILL on the first trade after over a year. I'm just finding it a chore to read. Good concept, but the execution is boring.

Fear Itself was one of the worst Marvel events ever put out. Only CW2 was worse
The coloring hurts my eyes and I physically couldn't read the first issue
