Rapid-Fire Science Theatre 3000 – Manos, The Reviews of Fate

Or – “Off To Meet My Doom, Mom! See You After School!”

  

Comic book publishing schedules puzzle me. The Twelve hasn’t come out in what seems like a year, while Agents of Atlas is apparently on a bi-weekly status, and Spider-Man is coming out every sixteen minutes or so. Wolverine alone accounts for half the forests destroyed in the United States every month. The major publishers can’t seem to decide whether it’s a market for the celebrity auteur writer, or whether it’s the characters who sell the books regardless of creator. When Wolverine #73 came out a few weeks ago (before the publication of #72) it occurred to me that the entire industry is run by the pointy-haired boss from Dilbert, and that I should really just relax.

The original Seaguy limited series came at a time when I was experimenting with my comic input, trying weird stuff to see if any of it interested me, and the stream of consciousness bizarreness of the maritime hero intrigued me.  Morrison’s avant garde ramblings combined with the slick art to give an experience unlike any other.  Seaguy is decidedly NOT ultra-cool, nor is it in any way “badass” or gritty.  Needless to say, the experience was effective, and while I didn’t fully process all of it at first, I came away feeling like I’d had a fulfilling reading experience.  I never expected the proposed Seaguy sequel to ever get produced, so you can imagine my surprise when this showed up in the Previews…
