So WBD sold this to Netflix but refused to try and sell Wile E. Coyote to anyone.

How did I not know about this???

I LOVED Ed Brubaker’s run of Dead Boy Detectives. Such an incredibly fun comic.

Ooh…

Trailer is out. Looks great and thankfully they didn’t straightwash it (I was worried they might).

 

[Cap2024]

Ghosts, action, and hot guys.

Very entertaining and hope there’s another season. Perhaps crossover with Sandman.

I have only read their first appearance in Gaiman’s Sandman and then I read the Brubaker run, but I don’t remember them as being anything other than best friends in the comics. Am I forgetting something?

Just finished the first episode and while I am enjoying it, I am on the fence on the decision to age the characters up. There was a sort of fun innocence to having them being 13 year olds working out of a tree house. It went well with the 1980’s charm of the comics.

Death was in the first episode. (That’s the only one I’ve seen so far.)

Edwin apparently comes out in the final comic.

Spoiler

His coming out in the show is inspired by how it was done in the comic.

For clarity, the show takes place in the same universe as the Sandman Netflix show. Sandman himself doesn’t appear. That said, since they’re in the same universe- no idea what a second season might bring on that front.

I didn’t know that. Thanks.

I'm not surprised. It didnt get that much promo.

While I am enjoying it and enjoy the cast....there isnt enough emphasis on Charles/Edwin as a dynamic duo.

And here I thought this was fairly new. Just started it and it seems decent enough.

Just finished it. I'm not sure it's was as good as "Sandman", but i enjoyed it overall, though the first 3 episodes wasn't great. I wasn't sure i want to keep up with it, but after the rough start it got much better.
