Happy

0

I was wondering if anyone is going to pick up this limited series from Image. It's about a broken down cop turned hitman for the mob and a tiny blue horse called 'Happy'. I've just finished a Soprano's fest on DVD and saw this book on comiXology, it seems to have potential...

I've been planning on picking up the first issue and giving it a shot. Sounds intriguing.

Transmetropolitan artist and We3 writer- it's like an Indy dream! I put this one my pull list as soon as I saw it in Previews.

I am picking it up. Saw the preview and liked it.

Looks cool to me. I'll pick one up

Have some on pre-order since a couple of weeks ago. Surprised no one else had started a thread for it yet!

Grant Morrison and Darick Robertson, how could I say no? This has the potential to...

Grant Morrison? That's a big maybe. It's home run or strikeout with him.

4 issue mini.

I'll pass.

I like his odds on this "creator owned" project.

Wassup Adonis? How are you?

I don't think you were telling me, but I could name at least a couple of mini-series that picked up steam after 4 issues...

I'm not terribly keen on this. I'll give it a read when it comes out and if it blows me away I'll think about it.

I really wish (for your own good) you would remember that you started reading comics for their entertainment value and not becasue you can sell them and make a few bucks here and there. Some of the best works in the history of comics are four issue mini series (e.g., the Dark Knight Returns) or one shots (e.g., the Killing Joke) or limited series (e.g., the Watchmen).

I'm glad your ban is over.

There are some examples of some great mini series but sometimes people don't like them because the story wraps up too quickly and it has nowhere to go. I think a lot threads are started here because the OP is interested in "the potential" of the book as far as an investment or a quick flip goes, hence the reason why people buy multiple copies of certain titles - including this one I assume (and there's nothing wrong with that). Personally, I'd much prefer an ongoing because I like to see how a story line develops. It has nothing do do with selling them.

This thread is about the potential for a good read, I felt the story might have some merit for those of us who enjoy crime - cop - redemption type storylines, with a bit of weird thrown in. Discussion is all I hoped to encourage, this is not a 'modern that is heating up' thread, I noticed it and liked the premise, do you?

My ban? What are you talking about? Your idiotic behavior had your threads removed, not me or my comments. As such, you were disciplined - not me. Furthermore, your false and misleading statements are highly inappropriate. Try and think before you speak and refain from making accusations when you have no basis for the same.

I like the premise and the creative team. I'm defintely looking forward to reading it.
