fa/tg/uy here. Has there ever been an adaptation of Shadowrun? Cartoon or comic. Because i have been searching and never seen one.
If not, then what would be the closest thing in terms of setting, feel and atmosphere?
>>
>>94808192
Try Transmetropolitan.

It's not THAT close to Shadowrun, but it is good cyberpunk.
>>
>>94808192
Man, I wish Shadowrun had comics. It's bullshit that all we've got is the shitty manga from the 90's.

Transmet's pretty good stuff. You might like the Nikopol Trilogy and Strontium Dogs, and I'm pretty fond of the comic adaptation of The Stars My Destination.

>>94808192
I know there are books but everything gets fucking books
>>
>>94808467
Honestly the books are fucking awful though, even /tg/'s campaign storytimes beat out the licensed novels.

>>94809074
The books are definitely trash. Pretty sad that Shadowrun has so little worthwhile secondary content.
>>
>>94809909
Honestly I just dream four the days that CGL goes belly up so someone who actually cares about Shadowrun can get ahold of the IP.
>>
>>94808192
There is a manga, but since this is /co/ I'd like to see a comic book or a graphic novel.
>>
>>94808192
It could be interesting
Every 2 episodes is about a different runner team doing seemingly unrelated missions
You'd get a variety of approaches from super spies to pink mohawks to mystic negotiations to cyber-assaults to oceans 11 social infiltrators to a pixie, a yeti, and a sharkboy trying to be social infiltrators.
Sometimes they could come at odds or assist eachother in unexpected ways (the spies had Mr. Johnson hire the pink mohawk team to draw law enforcement's attention by blowing up a matrix cafe in a ritzy area)
And then everything ties up into a Megacorp's plan to fuck someone or something over, either very important or very petty
Anywho, How's 5e?

OP, here. I want to like the books because they are Shadowrun, one of my two favorite fictional settings. But i just can't bring myself to like them, they are just not good. At least Never Deal with a Dragon got adapted into the SNES game.
>>94812968
Haven't actually tried 5e. Partly why i am looking for an adaptation of it. I need my shadowrun fix.
>>94808213
>>94808456
Thanks, dudes. I know nothing about comics and wouldn't have known where to look. I'll check them out. You are pretty cool, /co/.

And now that I think about it, the old Marvel 2099 line had at least a couple decent books in Doom 2099 and Spider-Man 2099. I haven't read X-Men 2099 since I was a kid so I don't know how well it holds up, but it's a team of freaks with unique abilities navigating the cyberpunk hellhole of a future Las Vegas that regards them as subhuman and expendable.

And Luna is best girl.
>>
>>94813542
Punisher 2099 is an insane fucking trip by the writer of Slaine and Nemesis the Warlock.
>>
>>94813887
I love Punisher 2099, but I wasn't sure if I should recommend Pat Mills parodying himself without first mentioning Judge Dredd.

/tv/ got there before you guys. Literally Shadowrun right after UGE started happening.
>>
>>94808192

There was a fan comic on the forums a few years back. However, it's short and I doubt the creator has done anything since.

>>94814187

I'm only watching it to find out if there's any qt Ork girls. They're my weakness.

>>94814187
>Shadowrun
>but with Will Smith
I am 100% ok with this
>>
>>94814187
Shadowrun with Lelu Dallas Multipass?

Sign me up
>>
>>94814187
They never gave me a Shadowrun adaptation. Instead they give me this. You bet your ass i will be watching this.
>>
>>94812968
Who at Netflix could we bribe to make this happen?
>>
>>94815585
Does Netflix do cartoons?
Or are you imagining a live-action thing?
>>
>>94815785
Netflix does make cartoons, but i would be happy with either.
>>
>>94815785
>Does Netflix do cartoons?
how are you on /co/ and not know this
>>
>>94816137
If it's on netflix, each episode being an hour long isn't entirely out of the question, which would mean more character/setting development too

Also, half and hour or and hour, they could set up some recurring characters (information brokers, fixers, smugglers) for more continuity

>>94816270
Mostly comics. Also non-netflix online streaming

I mean, I know that Netflix HAS cartoons, I didn't know the produced any
>>
>>94816329
have you seriously not heard of Bojack Horseman or How to Train your Dragon
>>
>>94816430
>Bojack Horseman
Yup, never watched it though

>How to Train your Dragon
I thought dreamworks made it (both the show and movie)
>>
>>94816556
series is made by netflix
