Post by Thefallenone »

It's a generally accepted fact that Gen 2 was darker than anything prior to it.

Rendering this topic about as worthwhile a discussion as "gosh, isn't Wheelie's speech pattern irritating after a while?"

That's what you asked.

You may be asking why now, but you weren't before. Am I going to have to explain tenses to you? Because that could get messy...

Because the writer was given free reign. Most of Furman's original material for the US title is similar.

The only parts I find "Dark" are San Fansisco getting blown away, and the Swam devoring the G1//G2 TFs.

Joke. Noun. A thing said or done to cause laughter. Something not in earnest or ridiculous.

The reason it's dark is because they let Yaniger do his own inking. He must've got through one of those big 40-pen set of Bic biros for #1...
