That's a whole lot of hatred against someone who created characters you seem to love... Take a deep breath, OP, and think about what you're saying. You're like those people who hate the SPN writers for torturing Dean & Sam. They're not real characters and the fact that you're reacting this way means the writer is pretty amazing.

Killing Banquo was ballsy and handled really well but it did kill off the unrequited love story. Guess some people just wanted cowboy romance instead of revenge.

(And since we're discussing GC! My problem with the comic is mainly the art which has become much more One Piece-ish. I also find Colin's new buddy hard to relate to so... Yeah. Who else think that?)

Killing Banquo wasn't ballsy, it was stupid and off the cuff. After that the entire comic fell apart. If it had remained solid, and kept updating like it used to, then yeah. I would say it was handled well. Instead, it seemed that whoever was doing the comic, just... didn't like it anymore. It lost direction, and just seemed like the storyline stopped. I understand if they were going for a big plot twist, but it just fell short of all possible expectations.

And the reason you prolly don't like Colin's new buddy, is because the writer doesn't have the ability to flesh him out properly.

[(Anonymous)]

See, for me it's not a big plot twist - it's definitely shocking but Banquo's death is the logical conclusion of the tonal shift that starts when he and Colin accidentally blow up the train and kill people iirc.

Anyway. Agreed that Colin's new buddy is not that developed but dude: harsh. The comic's writer gave us a lot of good stuff in the past years, the comics is extremely researched in terms of the era and how about Banquo and Colin? Pretty fleshed out. Saying the writers "doesn't have the ability" is unfair.

[(Anonymous)]

I don't think it's that unfair.

Yes, they did their research for the era. I will give that to them, they were able to flesh a world out very well. But they're characterizations, unless they were the two leads, fell extemely flat for me. It felt like so many different things were put in the making, so many different possible storylines with different characters, and then the next page came out and it was a day later. I honestly don't think that the writer has the ability to flesh out secondary characters.

Which is why, when Banquo was killed, the story fell apart, because they had so many secondary characters out there, that could have filled in the gap, but they had spent no time working on them. Thus Johnny comes in cocksure, and we're left going 'who is he?!' The reader doesn't know, thus I was unable to connect.
