alive she cried Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Oh ho ho. Whats all this hating on Transmet? You used to be cool... AmyNicole, you should check out the Comics noobs thread for further suggestions. I started out in your situation a few months ago with Preacher and never looked back. Dont listen to what this godless heathen says either. Let the guiding light of Spider into your heart and you will be saved. The Chair Leg of Truth demands it. you've just been brainwashed by skeet, can no one resist his charms? i bought more today. called comrades of war. i quite liked them. i can tell im gonna go broke quick at this rate. have you ever heard of demonoid? it's great for comics, especially those of us who can't afford comics and also those who like to try before they buy. if you're not already a member i'm pretty sure i have some invites. just pm if you want one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jables Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 you've just been brainwashed by skeet, can no one resist his charms? You're so right. We sit around listening to the White Stripes and reading the books you hate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crimsonfire Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Im just curious as to how anyone could hate Transmet.

Im just curious to hear your thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im just curious to hear your thoughts. not entirely true, baytor hates it too (yes i know he hates everything, but still) anyway why i hate it, i read the first issue something about him being a hermit and then he's reporting on a riot in a brothel or somehting and then he's watching tv for an entire issue. i mean, like i'm six months in and NOTHING HAS FUCKING HAPPENED, this is the boring crap that happens between issues. i'm sorry, i generally agree with the majority here on what's good and what's not when it comes to comics but on this we are very much not in sync. now maybe i'll download it again and love it and this post'll be quoted back to me for eternity, but somehow i doubt it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jables Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 I have a friend who hates it too, but in all fairness it was poor timing on my part. I turned him onto comics before I discovered Vertigo so he was a bigger Marvel fanboy than me(pre max too), so the first non-marvel comics I shows him is this and to this day he simply knows it as the book with the cat pissing on the phone and refuses to touch it. ASC- how can you not dig the prose though? Spider Jerusalem(and by proxy Warren Ellis) could make going to the free clinic a barrel of fucking laughs. Do you just Hate Ellis or something?

Iambaytor Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 not entirely true, baytor hates it too (yes i know he hates everything, but still) anyway why i hate it, i read the first issue something about him being a hermit and then he's reporting on a riot in a brothel or somehting and then he's watching tv for an entire issue. i mean, like i'm six months in and NOTHING HAS FUCKING HAPPENED, this is the boring crap that happens between issues. i'm sorry, i generally agree with the majority here on what's good and what's not when it comes to comics but on this we are very much not in sync. now maybe i'll download it again and love it and this post'll be quoted back to me for eternity, but somehow i doubt it I don't hate it, I just feel overly lukewarm about it and prefer the actual Hunter S. Thompson as opposed to the bald bicycle shorts wearing one that has a 3-eyed cat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crimsonfire Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 I'll admit its a slow starter but its so worth it in the end. I wouldnt say nothing happens though for the first few books. Persevere through to the end then make up your mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HypnotizinChikns Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Also try Strangers in Paradise (Terry Moore) I always reccomend this to the ladies (and it's pretty good too). Echo- also done by Terry Moore http://www.strangersinparadise.com/ Not sure it was already mentioned (trying not to mention the same crap haha) but The Leauge of Extrodinary Gentlemen is also good.
