I went into this blind. But woah that was fun. Its a mash of alot of different scifi tropes and stories. The expanse came to mind, so did fifth element and there are plentynof others. The art is awesome, the pacing very rapid and before you know it your done. Loved this..cant wait for vol 2.
Clever ultra-violent far-future sci-fi. As with much in the genre, the moments hinge on face-to-face combat somehow remaining relevant to the fate of humanity. This is fine.
Story: So the story starts off fun enough. Weather Man Nathan Bright goes on tv every day and makes everyone feel better about their life. Something TERRIBLE happened on earth and throughout the story we get bits and pieces of it to build the backstory. Soon after the end of issue 1 things go bonkers and we got our weather man on the run with another solider but twist and turns keep coming and you can't trust anyone. Art: It's fantastic. The strongest part about the book for me is the art itself...
The Weatherman was a really nice surprise. Action sci-fi adventure from terraformed Mars with fresh art and colors.Nathan is a popular weatherman in a world where Earth was destroyed by terrorists and the rest of humanity lives on Mars. Nathan's life is turned upside down when he's accused of being responsible for destroying Earth and killing billions of people. The thing is that he can't remember it and believes he's innocent.So this is where the crazy adventure starts and I won't spoil the res...
Pretty fun stuff.
This was one of the best graphic novels that I've read in a while. I was invested and bummed when it ended. There was a good mix of graphics, text and formatting. I'm ready for the rest of the series now!
Great, colorful art. A thought-provoking story that touches on responsibility, revenge, punishment, and more. The action scenes are very well-realized, although the violence can be a bit excessive at times. I would've liked some more character development, but this is only a minor complaint, (and it has only been running for 6 issues so far.) Looking forward to more.
The plot of this book, is a man named Nathan Bright is framed for the biggest terrorist attack to ever occur, and his only objective is to survive. OH AND ALSO! Do not get attached to any character as most of them eventually die.Spoilers below: The prostitute and Agent cross kill multiple characters so do not get attached to anyone.
I love a good sci-fi action comic as much as the next person...I don't even mind ultraviolence...as long as its done right. The Weatherman does it right...most of the time. There were a few moments where I felt like the shock value was a tad juvenile - but your mileage may vary.The art was fantastic...in particular the colors. For a world that is as fucked up like this one...you would expect a gritty pallet. Not so. This is easily one of the more vibrant colored books of 2018 IMO.I got lost a fe...
Interesting story with art that's just a bit on the manic side. It seems that Mars' favorite weatherman, Nathan Bright, is hiding a huge and potentially deadly secret--he just might be the key to stopping murder on a planetary scale. A number of people seem to think he's one of the terrorists behind the worst attack in history, one which killed almost all of Earth's population, but he just wants to be left alone to enjoy his life with his canine companion, Sadie. Lots of potential here, I think,...
Ultra-violent, but very intelligent Sci-Fi. Touches on ideas of justice, revenge, vigilantism, mob violence, group identity, terrorism, ..., and has tons of fun while doing it. Snarky unrealistic dialog and bright colors make the violence less disturbing, but it can still be upsetting.The beginning plot is that a likable jerk who is a popular weatherman may be responsible for a horrible massacre. But he doesn't remember it because his mind was wiped clean. Is it OK to inflict punishing pain on s...
One of my favorite reads from 2018. I picked this one up because the cover was so pretty. The book ended up way crazier than I imagined. This man did the unspeakable and doesn't remember a thing. The question then becomes, should he still be punished. With it being on a global scale and thousands of lives affected by it, there is more then just one group that is out to get him. Funny, witty, colorful, dark, and just plain sad sometimes, I am very excited to see where vol 2 takes the Weatherman.
Hurry up with Volume 2!
The Weatherman is a perfect read and to me it is one of the best series of 2018. It grabbed my attention from the very first page, because it was amazing, the whole first issue was amazing and they saved the best issue for last. Absolutely satisfying ending of the first arc. It's has been a fucked up action-packed, crazy rollercoaster. I have nothing bad to say about this. Fast-paced sci-fi story filled with violence and very likeable characters. Really great storytelling, with nice extraordinar...
A grimy yet colorful look at a future where the most dangerous terrorist of all time has been tucked away into the body of a fun and cooky weatherman, beloved by everyone. When the truth is revealed and the whole planet turns on him and memories of atrocities past come flooding back, the protagonist has to survive and come to terms with what he did as well as find out why. Although I found the first issues a bit more engaging than the last couple (#5-6 in particular), the mystery is good so far
Beautifully done&an unusual idea for a story. I'd definitely give volume 2 a go, only marked as 2 stars as it hasn't completely hooked me yet. If I really like a comic I can't wait to get the next one in the series!
3.75 Stars. Pretty good, i liked better than i thought i would. Good story & great artwork, although some panels can be a little incoherent. Looking forward to Vol. 2 though.
I loved the concept for this one! (view spoiler)[Nathan Bright is not only framed for planet-wide genocide, but actually helped commit this act before having his memory wiped to escape the guilt. Now feds and criminals alike have discovered his "true" identity, and everyone wants to get their hands on him and make him pay for his past crimes. But the thing is, Nathan doesn't remember committing these crimes. Even if he is biologically the same person, Nathan is very much not the man who did this...
I really liked Weatherman in the same way that I liked the new Mad Max movie; I was pleasantly surprised. Only with Mad Max, it was a lack of water that made people turn against each other, in Weatherman it's a lack of closure. The entire Earth went up in a flesh-eating virus flame and now everyone is left to wonder who to blame for this mass genocide. Weatherman blends together generous portions of black comedy, violence, and the darker side of the entire human race and puts it into one beautif...
A very strange comic that was reminiscent of Tokyo Ghost, although I couldn't tell ya why.
