veridicaldreams said: I’m curious, do you like Ennis’s work on Fury? Personally I never have. I hated his his MAX Fury and I gave the one in North Africa a try and was equally disappointed. I’m not even reading this. Are you reading this new mini-series?
Sorry for the delay in responding- went out of town for the weekend.
I am reading it and I’ve liked this one better than the previous ones. There seems to be more story and the violence doesn’t feel quite as random as it did in the previous ones though that may have more to do with this being an earlier Fury and one that’s not as burned out as in Ennis’s first series. The violence is still over the top in places (and will probably get even more so as the story moves forward in time) but in the first 3 issues Fury seems more in control of himself.
Ennis’s protrayal of Fury isn’t one I’m all that keen on but it would have been easy for the writers to have pushed Fury’s character in this direction in the late ‘80’s or early 90’s instead of having him just get tired and get killed off for a bit. Considering how much has happened to Fury since WWII it says a lot about classic Fury that he keeps getting back up; that he does still believes in heroes and that things can be changed and that he still is ‘the one man’ even though he continually get blocked from doing what is right. Classic Fury adapts (as Secret War and everything following that showed) while Ennis’s version feels like the other side of that coin.
