After years of being on the Internet, being the Mistress of Mythical Mayhem, I finally found that I am not alone!!
I don’t even know I stumbled across it over the Internet (some random keyword search for some Goddess I presume), but there’s this comic series “God Is Dead” that featured a LOT of Mythical Mayhem (God/dess’s getting killed, blood gore, with some storyline). Ok, I know I’m usually all about story, and all – but this time I was just enjoying the visuals and carnage a lot! The storyline isn’t the worst I’ve seen (despite a lot of “negative reviews”). It is still coherant enough (although I must admit I didn’t like the “American Gods” section at all – pretty much knew it was going to tie in, but I ignored most of it). But yes, there is much deicide (WOOO!!!!).. some of the matchups I didn’t think was great, but hey, as artists, we all have our own takes- I respect that. Still, you have no idea how many times I ..uh.. “enjoyed myself” for the first time in a lot of years.
I am going to get the full set of the comics now (on print) to support the title! Oh, and I would hopefully be looking to hunt down some of the artists involved.. obviously they have no problems with blood/gore/peril/sex/mythology (or any combination of the before). Would love to see more of their works — and I know one is here on dA! (WOO!)
I AM NOT ALONE!!
