Hey, new reader here. Lately I am really interested in cyberpunk theme and I am wondering if you can recommend me any comics set in cyberpunk world?
Cyberpunk comics
Nathaniel Roberts
Dominic Stewart
Is this out already? If so, is it any good?
Nicholas Miller
Start with Transmetropolitan and Marvel 2099, chummer. I'd recommend Judge Dredd as well but you can argue that it isn't strictly cyberpunk.
>Is this out already?
Yes.
>If so, is it any good?
Nope.
Michael Green
Where to start with Judge Dredd?
Adam Diaz
Anything from 2099
Isaac King
The Complete Case Files if you want to start at the beginning. But Judge Dredd is one of those comics you can start reading at any point and quickly get the jist of.
Aaron James
>no Shadowrun: Dragonfall or Shadowrun: Hong Kong comic adaptations
What the frag I just want orc waifus
Isaac Turner
Prez, Tokyo Ghost, I think there's a Neuromancer grafique floating around but I dunno if its a good adaption
Oliver Rodriguez
you want something done you gotta do it yourself
Ayden Ross
Join the club, omae.
Elijah Lewis
Preach.
Alexander Cook
Think this got released last week?
It's not bad - Richard Morgan had a hand in setting it up for the comic writer and it shows. Certainly more like the books than the tv show ended up being.
Kevin Collins
First issue was passable. No real hook. It's written for the trade I'm a huge way. The lady cop may be a sadist, which is a twist.
Carter Lopez
This flew under my radar. I thought the show wasn't too bad, save for the majority of the characters (Takeshi is really the only likeable one).
Connor Williams
More of an Eiger man myself, but otherwise I agree.
Samuel Gray
Why do artists keep forgetting that she has a cyberarm?
Cooper Sanchez
Stick to manga.
John Sanchez
No sure if I get that. It isn't cyberpunk if the characters are 'likeable'. All cyberpunk characters, even the heroes, have to have something wrong with them: kleptomania, voyeurism, barely held-in-check sadism, etc. - the 'good guys' are just the least-worst.
If there's a likeable character in a cyberpunk work, they're a victim waiting to happen.
Carter Miller
Go back to Yea Forums.
Alexander Ramirez
Old City Blues
Chase Morales
Make me, Yea Forumsck sucker.
Asher Jenkins
That's stupid and you're stupid for saying it.
David Taylor
I totally get where you're coming from with that. Case, the archetypal cyberpunk protagonist, is - for lack of a better term - an asshole. The point I'm trying to make with Altered Carbon the show is that there's no one save for Takeshi that the viewer could identify or empathize with. Takeshi isn't a good person, but you can put yourself in his shoes. I didn't really care for anyone else, especially Ortega.
I don't see what's so stupid about it. Mind explaining?
John Williams
>Sgt. Eiger will never break your ribcage for getting cheeky with her in the barracks
Just sudo -rm -rf me now senpai.ddl
William Sullivan
>>Sgt. Eiger will never break your pelvis
FTFY.
Charles Scott
Show Ortega was character assassination.
>Altered Carbon the book: "Wake the fuck up envoy. We got a city to burn."
>Altered Carbon the show: Ooh save me Mr. Kovacs - a fanfiction
Landon Lee
There is zero need in cyberpunk to make all the heroes terrible people. It's very common, since they're often criminals. It's not wrong to do or anything. But there is nothing necessary about it.
Brody Adams
This. I really didn't get her borderline obsession with Takeshi from the moment we're introduced to her. I should read the book though.
>It's very common, since they're often criminals. It's not wrong to do or anything.
Then you shouldn't have any issue.
>But there is nothing necessary about it.
Explain your interpretation of the -punk suffix, then.
Cooper Williams
In cyberpunk it's the underclass. Case nor Molly were really 'punk's. It's about the downtrodden or lower classes. As the genre has expanded out, there's now room for characters from any walk of society.
Jaxon Cox
>In cyberpunk it's the underclass. Case nor Molly were really 'punk's. It's about the downtrodden or lower classes.
Last time I checked, Case was living out of a capsule hotel and had to fence stolen goods for money - money he blew on drugs. And Molly was a prostitute before becoming a street samurai. Everyone who isn't corporate is being shat on by corporate, and thus is the "underclass".
Adrian Martinez
>Transmetropolitan and Marvel 2099
Don't listen to this poster.
People are only recommending Marvel 2099 because they're idiots and don't know any other cyberpunk comics.
OP, comics don't really do cyberpunk well. Stick to actual BOOKS.
Also, why hasn't anyone storytimed the new Blade Runner comic yet?

We're recommending Marvel 2099 because it's a cyberpunk comic. How about you stop being a faggot and give OP some recommendations instead of criticizing others on some baseless assumption?
>Also, why hasn't anyone storytimed the new Blade Runner comic yet?
There was a story time. You must've missed it while sucking cock.
