For those that don't know, Bendis and Maleev have been working on a Spider-Woman series for the last few years and it looks like it's finally coming out soon. Marvel have done a few motion comics for it. I'm not sure if they're original or scenes from the comics yet but I decided to watch the first one since it's free on Marvel.com at the moment.
People seem to be pretty split on it - some say it's great and motion comics are cool and the rest think it's terrible and don't understand the point of this "format." I am in the latter because what I just watched was pretty awful.
Bendis's dialogue is normally pretty poor when read but it sounds dreadful when listened to. The voice acting was strange and off-putting. I didn't even know Jessica Drew was supposed to be British? The only positive thing I can think of is that it looked good - but that's because Maleev is a great artist and I'm going to get plenty of Maleev art in the actual comic. I still don't understand the motion comic thing so I think I'm going to stick to the proper thing.
I was initially excited for this comic back when it was announced after Daredevil (how many years ago was that?!) and Jessica Drew was going to be dealing with SHIELD and HYDRA but now after all these delays and story changes (now she's working for SWORD and hunting aliens on earth), I'm just not so sure anymore.
Are you guys looking forward to the comic? Did you like the motion comic? What do you think?
