Eva's main issue story wise is that much of the information that one would need to understand what's going on is in supplemental materials.

Also, ignore all the religious symbolism, it means nothing. No really, it's literally just there to look cool.

>Does End of Evangelion answer up everything/tie up loose ends?
No.
>>
>>83522176
The last two episodes are not really happening. The first episode is Instrumentality happening in everyone's heads, the second is specifically in Shinji's. The actual "End of Evangelion" actually shows what is happening in the real world outside of their minds.

>But does it make any more sense?
Oh fuck no, Evangelion is a glorious clusterfuck, and End of Evangelion in particular has Anno practically go on about how much he hates the fans.

I don't think you can ignore the religious symbolism given it's a Japanese production. I mean I'm not an Evafag at all, I think it's pretty overrated in a lot of ways, but that shit does mean something (even if the writers just threw it in it means something culturally)

Basically

Nrama: You're continuing to do Earth 2 along with all this, right?

Abnett: Yes. It's not strictly speaking part of Rebirth, but I'm continuing to write it. Obviously, it's on a slightly separate stream, although we're doing some very big stories there.

DC Comics August 2016 solicitationsPin It CREDIT: DC Comics
View full size image
Nrama: You've done it for a little while. Does it continue?

Abnett: I took it over on issue #9, where there was a sense that the readers didn't quite like what was going on, and could I do something to sort of revamp it? And the response to that has been tremendous, so I'm buoyed up by the enthusiasm for what I'm doing.

So although Earth 2, strictly speaking, isn't part of Rebirth, but you know what? I'm trying to inject into it that sense of rejuvenation.

I was working on it a bit today, and my editor and I have come up with a storyline that I think is not only going to blow people's socks off, but also will put right — I hope — put right some of the things that people thought was not right about Earth 2 as a book.

Narutaru's ultimately going to hinge on how upset you get over Bad Things Happening To Children. It doesn't bother me, and I generally like the conflicts that happen.

It's not Ito-esque at all, more like a moral disgust factory.

That was always a weird concept. Some powers just seem more suited to evil activities.

One of the things I love about her appearances in his solo series was how she would work with him while constantly giving him shit. She
sent him harassing phone calls until he helped the Squad deal with Argent, and she made him ride on the landing gear of an airplane in order to sneak him into an air force base to capture Vertigo.

He's not under her jurisdiction, but she has enough power to fuck with him when he needs her help.
