Hey /co/ let's read Done to Death! A 2011 book about the head of a writing company that murders people who sends her shitty scripts and also there is a vampire.

>Fiona Staples' first comic book work a decade ago
>>84458964
How is everyone doing today?
>>84458996
Oh man I'm wrong this book is like 2006 but I guess the collection was 2011. That is all making a lot more sense.

>a writing company that murders people who sends her shitty scripts
Where's the cut off for shittiness the doesn't get you deaded? Does it have to be like bad fanfiction bad or anything that the reject?
>>84459050
I think she only kills Twilight rip offs if what I'm reading is right.
>>84459166
So wait. Are the vamps the ones writing bad twilight fanfiction?
>>84459174
According to the description there is a vampire who is ALSO killing people that don't portray Vamps correctly.
Huh. Old Fiona Staples kind of reminds me of Riley Rossmo.
>>84459216
EH this is more like an 80's McCarthy without the crazy coloring mixed with a dash of Rossmo. She colored a couple issues of Proof so I figure she was at least aware of him.
>>84459244
though the McCarthy was more in movie premiere bits.
>>84459244
Yeah, getting some McCarthy vibes too. Cool stuff though!
>>84459154
If her name wasn't on the cover and you told me this was Fiona Staples, I'd call you a liar
>>84459293
It's very interesting to see how her early stuff is compared to her current stuff. Like she wasn't even ONLY a penciler at this point in her life, she colored for Rossmo AFTER this, so she was kind of seriously a rookie.
>>84459154
Seriously strong Rossmo vibes from this, though Rossmo never let's facial features extend pass the face.
>>84459278
>the real vampire is a fat autismo
outstanding
>>84459441
That's a hell of a fucking party
>>84459547
do you think Stephanie Meyer ever acts like this
So this woman is so salty about sparking a shitty vampire franchise that she murders people?
>>84459677
>Mobile thumbnail
Oh sweet god that's horrifying!
>Just a butler
... I'm somewhat disappointed.
>>84459807
Wait so I'm confused.
Did he hear the death threat and decide on his own to keep quiet ?
>>84459831
Oh nevermind.
>>84459833
I think it was cause he didn't want anyone to know some chick beat is ass into the dirt.
>>84459833
He's embarrassed a girl beat him up
>>84459862
>76 panels of Irony is only 4% the daily value
shit, I need more Irony in my diet
>>84459909
What a fucking hack.
This thing is a reaction image goldmine.
Thanks for the awesome storytime, this is the best read I've had in a minute, making my night.
>>84460279
dem legs
>>84460310
Aww no! Her bitchery was awesome!
Thanks for reading guys!
>>84460072
now that's Fiona Staples
>cowboys and aliens
this was solidly mediocre, the characterization was weird and the pace confusing. Was that supposed to be Fiona in the limo? What even is the ending, is she a vampire now?
Thanks for posting this, it was a good read.
>>84460374
Thanks Dan. That was pretty umm... yeah. Well, it felt good to sit down and read a graphic novel which I hadn't done in a while.

The satire

Your head
Seemed like a story with an axe to grind (granted, it was published five years ago.) Is the sparklevampire trope still a thing in YA fiction?
>>84460560
Where in my post did I indicate that I didn't understand the satire? It practically hit you in the fucking face with it.
>>84458964
Hey, Dan. I thought you died.
>>84460588
I will never die!
>>84460580
I got the impression that while you enjoyed reading something, you were trying to be neutral on the actual piece of work posted, which comes off as slightly insulting; apologies if I misinterpreted that. I for one thoroughly enjoyed it.
>>84460639
Well I thought it'd be a bit odd if I thanked the storytimer then went on and on about how much I didn't like it all in one post. But if you're offended by neutrality then I will say that it was a pretty stupid and even as satire its really weak.
>>84460735
I find an honest opinion less offensive than polite neutrality for some reason. I'll admit, I have a softspot for the lampooning of mainstream media, so this comic pushed a few of the right buttons for me, I understand that it's by no means a masterpiece.
>>84460041
Feel like one of these panels would make for good reaction images for story criticism
bum[
>>84460120
Why doesnt he just turn her?
