    This was good until they arrived to the jungle. Once the creature leaves the frigid artic and comes to a tropical weather it can infect anything and everything. Birds, insects, mammals and spread.

    • @Kapangdazz
      @Kapangdazz Před 4 lety +14

      There is the theory that the thing requires a certain mass to infect others. If infection was really so simple, when it was still a dog it could have gone around nibbling the fingers of the crew, or generated a proboscis to break the skin and assimilated them all before they even had the opportunity to understand its nature.

      Could it be that we are all the thing but we suffer from a flaw which makes us believe we are human, until something is set off awakening the things abilities thus removing our deceptive shell. Think about it.. it's like the zombie virus in walking dead. Everyone is infected but it only shows when a human is killed, ie from an infected bite, overdose of pills (as stated in the game) head cut off (hershal) or really anything that can kill us allows it to make our bodies turn. ... scary

  • @Mant111
    @Mant111 Před 6 lety +241

    This comic series is enjoyable but let's be honest now: the Thing should've already won.
    The whole idea was that the Thing's ability to reproduce easily was being countered by the antarctican climate, all the cold and snow and there being no living organisms around other than the men of the station. That's what stopped it from spreading.
    But this? C'mon now. It's a whole freakin jungle. Thousands of insects, animals, and organisms to infect. The Thing won the moment it left the frozen wastelands of the first setting. No need to go after any human or seeking for radio help or anything, just infect the jungle and spread from there.

      Yea. Usually with horror creatures there is a way around the “infection”. Vampires(with most versions) you have to willingly submit to be turned. Zombies, you just have to avoid being bitten(or scratched in some cases). But John Carpenter said fuck all that....if you even touch my.....THING, it’s over for you. Beat that lol

    Okay so I've noticed that a lot of people dislike the idea of the Thing being in the jungle for the fact that it just ultimately won instead of being in an environment with nearly no life. I have a theory (still a rough draft though) that the Thing might actually have an objective: wipe out other intelligent life. Yes, it's obvious that this creature can assimilate anything and acquire their intellect and characteristics. But think, while small pieces of it rely on instinct, larger versions are incredibly smart. Maybe it's priority is to get rid of whatever is at the top of the food-chain, then assimilate its way down from there. Then that brings the question: Why not just infect the other organisms and spread from there? Well... maybe this Thing has a personal vendetta with the humans after the research station incidents since we know how to kill it, how it works, and how it lives. Just a theory though

    • @FrancisR420
      @FrancisR420 Před 5 lety +2

      The fact that if it separates itself small enough and losses it's intelligence it might not be too keen on actually escaping or even if it is it might not know how

    These comic are fun, but no where up to the level of the writing of the original film. The second the thing would have come in contact with a temperate climate it would have been all over. The creature would have assimilated every organism, from the microscopic to insects to small animals. Maybe even plant life. There is no containing it where there's abundant life.

    Wait if they were worried about an infected person handing out needles and scalpels then why didn't they just have the person who suggested the needles and scalpels test themselves first then they would be sure that the needles aren't infected and you could even have that person do the test on other people
    I'm surprised that more people were suspicious of the person wanting the test them the people who refuse the test

      The reason why they use blood and not a different part of the body to do the test is because the smaller the thing organism the less smart. A finger, being connected to a body would mean a more intelligent thing, one that wouldnt reveal itself by reacting to the test.

    I'm disliking the setting and the Spanish used by those Argentinians. The Spanish phrases that they're using is commonly used in the Caribbean. Argentinians are mostly white, not brown and that camp is supposed to be in the south of Argentina which I doubt that there is jungle there. That means the comic company didn't even cared to do some basic research.

      From the art to the writing, it looks like Dark Horse were into cutting costs more than accurate representation.
      Just look at how badly the soldiers are written. They let themselves *FALL ASLEEP* with *NO GUARD POSTED* while there's a Thing about. Then when one of their crew acts weird and gets shot, they bury him instead of testing the body.
