    I didn't read the comics. Garth Ennis created this though and he's a phenomenal writer but Steve Dillon is the artist and I absolutely DESPISE his art. I mean I can not even put in to words how much I hate the art of Steve Dillon. Literally EVERY SINGLE FACE looks exactly the same. If you want Garth's BEST work though you should DEFINITELY check out his Punisher Max. It's the definitive Punisher for sure.

    I'm going to give it a shot and see if I like it. Fear The Walking Dead just didn't cut it for me and I haven't even watched one episode of it this season. I'm just not invested in it. Hopefully, this show will pan out.

    Looks interesting. I'll be checking it out. If memory serves, this was originally pitched to be an HBO show, but they dropped the ball on it, or decided to go with another show. From what I understand, it's pretty hardcore adult (themes, language, imagery). So AMC is taking a chance with this one.

    Yeah it is super hardcore. Anything that Garth Ennis is involved with is.

    Yeah, I read it could be quite controversial. That's why I want to check it out. Haha!

    IGN gave it a great review and said it's a pretty broad departure from the comic but that it is true to the "spirit" of the comic and it has great humor.

    3 episodes in, and I still don't have a flipping clue what's going on. :lolol: But it sure is entertaining.

    Love Cassidy. My kind of bloke.

    The show has a strong HBO connection. Dan Doherty (W. Earl Brown) from Deadwood is the Sherrif. Boardwalk Empire's Myer Lansky (Anatol Yusef) is DeBlanc. I don't know her name, but the Preacher's secretary/assistant (Lucy Griffiths) played Nora on True Blood.

    Waiting for them to tie everything together...

    I got hooked on HOW. Me and the little misses record a whole season, save it till the middle of February when we are snowed in and make an all day marathon out of it.

    That had to be the craziest first 5 minutes of a show I've seen in a while. :roflmao:
