>When telling a story in a specific time period–like a historically significant war–research usually plays a big role and ‘Namwolf was no different. That said, the type of research certainly wasn’t typical and crossed into several mediums. Rangel, Jr. said they used “’80s movies with werewolves in them, reading about Vietnam, and reading the Marvel comic, The ‘Nam” as resources while researching the book.. Faerber spent time studying photos from the era to make sure uniforms and weapons were accurate. He also spent plenty of time watching classic films about the Vietnam War, name-checking everything from Full Metal Jacket to Good Morning Vietnam.

No. It's not. No one ever wanted this. It's just five random words thrown together to hopefully maker a coherent story.

>>89452130
No I think they are exactly. It's supposed to be some schlocky '80s action movie or something which means it's going to be shit because all hipsters nowadays know how to do is go "find something somewhat underground from 20+ years ago, claim to love it, create horrible derivative media based on it because your work is wrapped in irony". How the fuck can you take the literal tumblr nose art seriously in this?

I don't think that's always the case, but this is from the writer of Space Riders so you're dead on.

>black dude is firing a revolver that ejects rounds

If you're gonna do a war comic, at least do your fucking research.

>>89456915
what a charming looking woof

>>89459710
It works if you read it in Sam Elliot's voice

>>89459809
That's not a revolver

Why is this so sterile, theres no substance or grit or nothing to it. Its like someone said "Lets have a vietnam comic WITH A WEREWOLF!" and no one told him what else happened after, the violence is meh, the characters are literally cliches and the art is typical tumblr crap that for some reason is obsessed with glowing noses.

WHY DO THEY DRAW THE NOSES LIKE THEY'RE INFECTED OR SOMETHING?! WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH THAT!.

>>89460212
>the characters are literally cliches

From the writer of Space Riders, another comic full of boring "badass" cliches and hollow nothing characters

>>89460149
I don't think it's anything. It's got a revolver grip but a pistol's ejection port, and certainly looks like nothing the US used in Nam.

Chalk it up to sheer laziness on the artist's part.

After how great Hillbilly has been it's a shame that the first non Eric Powell comic from his indie imprint is this

I'd rather just reread one of Ennis's many vietnam comics.

>spidey not joining the good guys in the war

>>89456915

That's technically a wolf-like alien, not a werewolf.

>>89452130
Why is absolutely ever medic in a Vietnam film/comic/show always a black guy?

>zero trigger discipline
Wasn't really a thing in Vietnam, TD didn't really start to become a big time thing until about the 90's thanks to Cooper, and even then you can find Marine training manuals from the 90's that show a complete lack of TD

>>89452953
Because Stokoe puts out one issue of Orc Stain about every six years.
That, and I doubt Disney/ Marvel want to put Spidey in Vietnam: it wouldn't synergise well with the MCU.
Also, Marvel doesn't seem to do What-if's anymore.

>>89453921
>"what would happen if these two completely different genres of fiction were to combine"
>creatively bankrupt
I mean, I get where you're coming from (Nazi zombies from mars kind of schlock), but war overlaps with horror, and figuring out how and when to use elements from each is a skill in itself.
Just because few people do it well doesn't mean it's a bad idea to try.
You sassy bitch

>>89465179
God, Ennis is such a shitty writer.

>>89452022

This art looks like Guy Davis meets Tuler Crook.

Could be awesome.

>>89452054
