The main character guy keeps giving these SHITTY quotes, and in his speech bubbles they are inside quotemarks. Then it has an asterisk attributing the quote a person. Half the time they are retarded. I mean, god damn.

Also, the artwork is bad. Poses, facial expressions..just like theres no life/effort. The original comics had shitty dialog too, but at least they put effort into the art.

I just got the first issue in. Holy shit..the dialog..I think we might just have to do a reading on the next RPD Dispatch. Wow.

is it THAT horrible?

There you go

Oh, I already have them. Thanks though.

This manga makes me feel like a resident evil anime mini series would be pretty awesome.

American comics .... let's just say I don't expect this comic to be any good, especially after reading the "fire and ice" RE comics. I could be wrong though..

Has anyone seen the translation of the Umbrella Chronicles manga? Thats pretty cool, even though it was only 2 issues.

The comic is not as stupid or ridiculous as I feared. I thought it was okay...
One thing though, there's only 22 pages of comic and 13 pages of advertisements!

My version dosn't have this disclaimer. Where did you read this?
I've just got the regular version but the alternate cover version is also getting sent to me.

I believe it's in the lower right hand corner of the first page, small print lol

[Dot50Cal]

Damn, I totally forgot about this. Gotta make a trip to the book store today.

even the first page in the comic says this whole story is an original non-canon story by wildstorm and has nothing to do with the Resident Evil series by Capcom.

I actually quite liked the first issue and that surprised me lol, so I will pick up the second issue and see where it goes. It is a nice little side story in the RE universe so it will not be that bad imo.

Picked it up today. Here's a summary for anybody interested:

Spoiler:

show spoiler

"One if by Land, Two if by Space"
Starts off with a call to the president about bio-weapon research and requests the BSAA's help. Mina was in a space program, used to be a marine, her story takes place IN space, at a space station. She was sent in to the space station because after a routine inspection they had no response.

She runs into a Licker! (FUCK YEAH) In true comic fashion, she grabs its tongue and beheads it.

Meanwhile in Grezbekistan, the Alpha and Bravo BSAA team are dropping in after a downed satellite that had viral stuff aboard - they're sent in to find it and take care of any contamination. The choppers get downed by rockets (apparently from the local militia since they mention them not seeing the BSAA as an authority so to consider them hostiles? I THINK?) Infected people in the area, shooting time. Briefing and most of the talking here done by Holiday.

Back in the space station, Mina is killing infected people. I should note here that she says the person is infected with the T-Virus. She gets orders to look at the computer system. Talk about a researcher exposing "Cnidaria" samples to the T-Virus. You can't see the whole computer screen but you can read the following:

"The last G-Virus sample, specimen G-34987-q, is one of the tests aboard the exposures satellite. The effects of cosmic radiation on virus samples have been unpredictable. Some of the samples were killed by the radiation, others seem to have mutated, while others seemed unaffected. The T-Virus has been especially unpredictable. I will be introducing one of the mutated strands to the Hydridae samples this afternoon.
7-Hydridae

cs: Member of Cnidaria
minescent
lticellular organism.

ability. Retarded senescence. Natur
fense mechanisms
include neurotoxic nematocysts.

Viral Effects On Subject: Unknown"

Basically they confirms there are two satellites somewhere with a sample on board - I'm assuming one is the downed one the BSAA people at Grezbekistan are running into. Another satellite still in orbit has a G sample on it. And they want to go intercept it. Something attacks Mina and when she runs into it. It's like this huge ... globby thing with zombies in it or something.

Meanwhile with Holiday, tyrant comes, HQ tells them lol no we are not evacuating until you find that god damned satellite. Holiday sees the tyrant is like "o fuck."

TO BE CONTINUED.

Overall it's ... an RE comic so it's nothing amazing, I just wanted to check it out for myself, and see if maybe in the future issues they bother tying it in to RE5 at all, aside from the BSAA thing.

[REmaster]

That is F**ked up!
I can't believe it! The promotion of the comics hasn't just been misleading, it's been a complete LIE!!! That is some seriously devious deception and false advertising!
Surely there must be at least a mention of Chris somewhere in there? Maybe in the last issue?
I'm really shocked that the first page says that!

But I'm the same as you, REmaster. It's only $4 and it's still a RE collectible. Even the other old, crap Wildstorm RE comics are now pretty expensive. It's best to grab them all as they get released.

Btw, my theory of those agents being Barry and Claire has been squashed. Unless it's still them but they're using their 'Porno Names'.

yea it's pretty terrible but I'll keep my eye on the next issue when it's released. My guess is that somehow Chris will appear in the last issue for like two pages. I mean, you know this comic's story is a joke when it starts offSpoiler:

with a BSAA agent fighting a licker in space

I'm used to spending all my money on Resident Evil anyways, even if it's crap. Hell, I have to buy another wii now because "The Darkside Chronicles", which looks to be the RE2 remake we've all be waiting for is a wii exsclusive. I just sold mine a few months ago because I thought UC was "ok" and I'm not a big fan of the wii. I thought to myself, well, I'll just keep UC and add it to the collection, then sell the wii since RE5 will probably be the last game to interest me. Well, look who's kicking their own ass

[Skunky]

And you would be correct, even the first page in the comic says this whole story is an original non-canon story by wildstorm and has nothing to do with the Resident Evil series by Capcom. WTF? Why advertise a comic with lines like, " Experience the prequel to RE5, and find out what tragic incident still haunts Chris!", when it clearly has nothing to do with anything lol.

That is F**ked up!
