This should probably hover around the 2.5 mark to be honest.I really like the Cyberpunk setting a lot. I've enjoyed it ever since reading William Gibson's novels and I love the setting of the original tabletop RPG, but for some reason they just haven't been able to do it decent justice with the past few comic books. I was pretty excited for this one, because it looked like this might tie into the game lore a bit more, but it never really achieves that."Where's Johnny" is another short one-off st...
Flat story, meh art, boring characters. Just very generic. Definitely no where near as good as the Trauma Team comic was.
complete turd of a story with flat artwork as well
WHERE'S JOHNNY is a story about anti-corporate journalist LYLE THOMPSON who plays a minor role in Love Like Fire and Never Fade Away. He is one of the signature characters of Cyberpunk 2013 and Cyberpunk 2020. Here, we find him as a washed up has-been, chasing stories no one cares about in a time when journalism is dead even when it's sensationalist journalism. It's a decent-enough story and one of the better ones of the CDPR franchise but hurts for the fact that its supposed to have happened ri...
Pretty bad, was hoping for a deep dive in a world but was left disappointed.
I liked the artwork, but the story was… flat. I kinda get what the point was, and overall I could even like the way they grabbed onto the deceptive and hopeless nature of life in NC. But it just didn’t “click” together.This noir approach would lend itself well to CP RED (that’s another thing: I get that CP2077 is a more recognizable brand, but can we please stop putting it on RED stories?) just needs a bit more intent.A fun read nonetheless. I don’t regret buying it.
Now this one was a rather weird read. I will give it 4 but in reality it is more 3.5 (much closer to 4 than 3).I guess if this was released as a book it would be 100+ pages long novelette. Is it gripping and edge of the seat? Well .... no. It is story of an investigative journalist that constantly gets pushed back because his findings are for all means and purposes confirmations of what everybody knows (no matter how bloody and inhuman) - because of this he comes across as a grim fun-killer and
Ugly and shallow art. Shallow, boring, and pointless story. Stay away from this crap even if you like the game.
Dark Horse, stop trying to make Cyberpunk 2077 happen, it's NOT going to happen..! Well, at least not with books like this one. Because Night City is actually a really interesting place, it's just that the stories written for these comics feel a bit lazy and surface level.A corporate HQ in the city has been nuked (nope, we don't get to see that), and in their nuclear shelter (corpos come prepared) under the HQ are a lot of dead bodies. Is one of them Johnny Silver..?It's all not very thrilling,
I get what they were trying to do with this comic but the execution of it fell flat. The story isn't fleshed out and not nearly as detailed as it should be to make it interesting. Artstyle sadly didn't work too well either for me.
Pretty shallow tie in to the videogame. The main character has a black eye that seems to magically switch to the other eye every now and then. If the makers of the comic didn't care any more than that, why do they expect anyone else to?
Oof, this was a dud. Poor art. Hard to follow story. Boring as hell. All of the above.
Oh Cyberpunk 2077. Why CD Projekt Red? Why in the hell did you get players during development then get them mad? WHYYYYYYYY?!When I 1st saw some Cyberpunk posts on Insta back in 2019 I thought "Hmm looks interesting" so I picked it up from a local EB Games store back in 2020 I started playing on PS4 buuuuuuuuut... I couldn't finished playing coz of the.... bugsWell at least the gameplay seems ok... well a little. It's no wonder it's the worst PS4 & Xbox One game of 2020. Hopefully they'll update...
6/10
Has some promise of being a cool Blade Runner style noir story, but wastes a lot of time on standing around doing nothing and ends with an implied whimper without even laying out the real stakes of why anything matters.
it was an interesting glimpse of the world of cyberpunk 2077 but it also felt really phoned in. i wasn't expecting much from a comic bonus from an energy drink but it was better than expected. I liked the art but i usually do when it comes to giannis milogiannis. the end of the story felt really rushed and could have benefited from another issue. maybe rockstar energy didn't want more story.
