I just picked up a comic called Stolen from the market, and damn if it wasn't Shadowrun. It is a precurser to a vid game coming out in april, which will probably suck. Check it out, I loved it.

Unfortunately it looks to be a bad Danger Girl ripoff in style.

Seems quite good. But i never read Danger Girl.

I'm not going to bother reading it, but from a glance, it doesn't look like it has anything to do with Shadowrun (unless you're part of crowd that's decided everything is Shadowrun and want to regale me with explanations of how Shrek is a shadowrunner and Hamlet is a retelling of a disastrous corporate family affair, in which case I sincerely hope you get hit by a car and die). It does, as Vuron noted, look a lot like Danger Girl. Which, as far as I'm concerned, is enough to convince me that I've already spent too much time and attention on it just writing this post.

I thought it was cool. And yes, its very Shadowrun.

Ironically enough, pretty much everything is "very Shadowrun."

It didn't have the right feel to be very SR. Nice looking, okay writing (I've never read Danger Girl, so I can't comment on that angle), but not any more SR than most superhero comic books. The superficial resemblance is there: rediculously skilled theif and assassin, lotsa explosions, some melee combat and some internet overwatch. But I wouldn't classify it in the 'very Shadowrun' league.

Looks a little cliché. Like the stealth elements from Tenchu and Metal Gear and the obligatory hot-chick-with-big-hooters-in-tight-clothes rehashed into something that's trying to be original. The comic is passable, though. And I do agree, it's Shadowrun.

Now, if one of the girls had suddenly sprouted dikoted cyberspurs while the other turned out to be a spellcasting elf, we might've started to get there.

It was a decently entertaining read (I don't read comics at all normally, so I wouldn't know how it compares to the competition), but I can't sey I felt much for the drawing style itself. Part of me cannot help but wonder how many times in her carreer she's managed to knock herself unconscious with her own breasts performing that kind of jumps and flips though.

That was pretty cool. Definatly Shadowrun inspiring. Some of the dialouge seems right out of the books.

"Sometimes you forget you're the bad guy..." That's staight out of Neo-Anarchist.

Chicago section of NAG2NA. 'Hooding.

If it weren't for the supposed origin of the sword, I would have dismissed it as just another breaking-and-entering crime fiction. Throw in that 2% of mysticisim with the origin of the sword, and well, I have to admit that I'd count it as Shadowrun in my book.

It's just the skim-milk version of Shadowrun.

In the absemce of any real Shadowrun comics, tv shows, or movies, I take it where I can get it.

That was alright. I don't think I'd pick it up though. Now Lobo, he's Shadowrun. He says 'Frag'.

Lobo is Shadowrun, if your players all pick the Bad Reputation, Braggart, Combat Monster, Impulsive, and Vindictive Flaws for their characters, considering them freebie points, because they all play their characters like that already.

Not to mention a jillion strength, regeneration, Heavy Weapons: a jillion, and Whips(Chains): a Jillion-1(a jillion+1). Oh, and we'd need to make stats for a space motorcycle.

Thanks for that link, Doc, I wasn't aware that comic existed.

Shadow isn't happy with Bulletproof's anime styling, but... I like it.

That is true, but I can forgive a lot of art stuff if the stories good. And after my initial irational coment I went back and gave Kit some props for her good writing.

I am actually heading over to her sight to check out her latest stuff.

It has an above-average look to it, I would say, compared to the rest of the comic book market. I've been gravitating towards simpler comics (as far as mechanical craftsmanship is concerned) in lieu of tighter story-telling.

On the topic of Danger Girl, while those stories were fairly inane, the two things that were done well in them were that the layouts were bar-none, some of the best in the biz (yeah... nine panel layouts are not common) & the pacing of the stories was pretty much like your standard fair Hollywood action/espionage flick. For that, they were alright.
