Well, all I'm saying is, if you want to gain readers' trust, don't blow a character's head off in graphic fashion and then just bring him back later. This is supposed to be more grounded than the old cartoons.

I admit I also thought Bludd was dead until I was reminded that he doesn't have the eyepatch yet. But also, he was shot right through his skull, so...?
Anyway, I liked the bit with Baroness questioning the rationale behind Duke's commitment to the Army. I think the stuff exploring and deconstructing his character is the biggest thing this series has going for it so far. It's just a shame that there's only a little bit of it each issue. |

Honestly, I am liking duke really well. I like all the character work, and the reference to file cards feel really organic when they could have felt super contrived. The art is amazing. IDW's art always looked to shiny and modern for my taste. This feels more analog and gritty if you know what I mean.

I assumed Bludd was shot down the side of his head and the "camera" angle made it look like it was down the middle.

Well, the fact that he wasn't wearing his signature eyepatch probably means this is supposed to be the injury that makes him require it.
Which is fine. But if you wanna do that, DON'T show a fake out with big exploding entry and exit wounds!! That's a kill shot, not an "oh no I need to wear an eyepatch now" shot. Point blank range too. Probably hollow points that shredded the inside of his brain. But oh sure, just put an eyepatch on it...it'll be fine. |
