The Hook- A parody of sci fi and Super heroes.  Mixture of The Trick, Rick and Morty with their own unique set of weirdness.  It starts off with a superhero team falling apart via in fighting and infidelity. All while dealing with a Russian leading an Army of beat

 Plot

God hates Astronauts is a work of pure madness. Create by a mixture of what I assume is Cocaine, cheap beer, and madness. It’s a spoof of sci-fi, pop culture and superheroes.  It had weird animal/human hybrids and bear fighting Carl Winslow

Review-

This always keep you on your toes. Some of the tangents and ways they go truly unexpected. it goes all around superhero and scifi fiction.  It some strange turns but manage to flow really well. Now most of these character not what you call likable. So it hard to find someone to grab onto. Some may find some of the humor pretty damm mean. But it moves at just a fast pace, it never gets to angsty. It so silly that it doesn't seem that Dark as it could be.  I absurb enough most of any horror stuff don't matter that much. The art is great and colorful. The part of the trades where they go into the origins pretty fun.

The Hook- Dragnet meets the the movie DREAMSCAPE

plot- I discovered the Dream Police a few years back as a one shot. It was under Marvel Icon line and written by Michael Straczynski. It was basically Dragnet in the dream world. Two police, walk around the dreamscape to make sure everyone dreams going ok and no one getting out of line. The make sure the figments (actors) in the dream doing their Job and dreamers don’t mess up the dreamscape too much. It was a nice little one shot, pretty fun. When Image decided to make a sequel...and make it a series I was worried how they going to stretch this concept. Because it seem like a concept that works as a one shot because you don’t have to explain too much. Like for instance do dreamers know about the dream Police? If not why would they look at figments of their imagination with that much authority?  Why would you listen to something that was created by you watching too much David lynch before bed. The story in the series explores on the world and explains a few things. It adds mystery when one of the dreams cops question who they are, why do they do what they do, and disappears and gets replace for doing so. The other cops don’t seem to notice he now has a female partner, till he himself starts dreaming of his old partner. Something Dream cops were never able to do. It also adds in a cool concept of people who create nightmares...a group of being that freak the dream cops out but apparently have a place. The world is pretty interesting. I like that the dream cops but just there to help and really care about the dreamers. They basically there to make sure you don’t go crazy and upset when it fails. Some of the dreams cops themselves not that deep least on the surface. It takes a few comics for you to see personality. There basically BY the book. Also sometime it seems no stakes...since some people can’t die. Not sure they have the) if you die in the dream you die in a real world) thing. So the stakes won’t be super high. That say the mystery slowly adds stakes. It one shot stories, but with a big mystery throughout that builds. I like that type of storytelling sometimes. The arts pretty good but wish they go more wild with it sometimes considering the world they in. I hope they get more creative as time goes on. Some might thing it a little too metaphoric and trippy. But that stuff right up my Alley. If like stuff like inception and Dreamscape, you like this. So far it was a fun ride.
