    Here is the problem I've always had with this particular story. Once the Thing is exposed to the ecosystem underwater, it is game over for the planet. It doesn't matter what anyone does at this point, it will assimilate the entire biosphere. Story can end there, we lose, the end.

    Thanks for the comprehensive review! I almost forgot these guys existed.
    Jeez, the art quality took a BIG hit in the second series, huh? The first series featured iffy writing (too many characters explaining to themselves what they're doing, like a guy who writes for media other than comics), but the artwork was gorgeous and weird, and took us to a lot of different places.
    Looking forward to part three!

      Nope, it's crap. The thing wanted to leave. That's why it built a ship and made a dog (Blair-Garry-Nauls-thing made a dog to run to mcmurdo). This comic completely misunderstands the things psychology. Read Peter Watts The Things (which has some problems), plus Who Goes There, From Hell, and the Prequel.
      A better sequel has the thing leaving the earth and going home ,or it's done from the thing's point of view as a creature in enemy territory. Possibly the ship they build at McMurdo has to leave some behind but no reason to think it wants to take over.

  • @tomneo2004
    @tomneo2004 Před 5 lety +1

    I start to think The Thing is a Bioweapon which in combination of both Nanobot and living tissue. Nano bot can act in group or individual because they are embedded with AI. Nanobot are designed to absorb cellular level of organism and imitate organism. In addition, Nanobot are capable of self replication.
    Living tissue provide power to Nanobot so that is why none organism are reject from human body.
    As Nanobot fully absorb and imitate all cell from organism it will require more living tissue to add its own biomass in order to strike next organism and provide more power.
    Fire destroy tissue which provide power to Nanobot that is why fire do the trick but have to fully burn it to ash.

    If they have to actively pursue it on the ice to insure it doesn't freeze how does it not freeze even faster in the water. Why would the thing leave available bio mass instead of assimilating it like it always has. Also pretty sure frostbitten tissue is not capable of undergoing necrosis thus it could not become gangrenous. Why would it burst from a body when it's never done that before. Contrived dribble.
