As a fan of the 80s cartoon back in the day and read the comics as well I knew enough about snake eyes and the Joe's so I was looking forward to the movie to see his origins and how he became a Joe its good film not perfect there's plenty of good action set pieces which kept me happy I will say its than the previous Joe which is saying some thing would have liked to seen more of the Joe's other than scarlett maybe if there's a sequel

In an attempt to stop global warming the world was frozen. Now the only remaining people live aboard the Snowpiercer, a train 1001 carriages long that continually circles the world.
Snowpiercer is based on a french comic series. There are three comics set before the series which is set 7 years after the extinction event (When the world froze) then another comic, then a movie (15 years after the EE) then two more comics, this means that if, like me, you have seen the film first you will know that there are some limits to what can happen in the series.
Like the film the series is foremost a commentary on class with the train having three official classes, 1st, 2nd and 3rd, the unofficial 'Night Car' and the tailys, a large group of stowaways who live in the tail of the train.
Snowpiercer also focus on the impact of living in a very closed and contained environment and the effect that even the slightest change could make.
Be warned there are a few violent scenes, a bit of nudity, and sex references so if you don't like that sort of thing you may want to avoid this

I'm old! Like I've pro'lly been reading comics for way too long (I was there the first time Jean Grey died)! But, when I say this what I consider one of the best comics EVER, I am behind that statement 100%!

Brian K. Vaughn has created an amazing story, with characters that are far from perfect but at the same time have merit and worth. It is clear that a lot of time went into the creations of each of the characters introduced, as well as the various settings. Long story short? This dude is a frigging GENIUS! Just sayin'..

And hey, how about those visuals from series artist Fiona Staples? Man, those covers she turns in are ridiculously rich in detail, but the inside stuff? Dear God, she has it goin' on! While I have some love for a number of Marvel characters, I am glad that Marvel never tried to lure her in, because she is far too good for them!

I could go on and on about the series and how good it is, but well, there's a more than fair number of users on here have said it better. Let's just leave it at this: Best.Comic.EVER! Now, scoot, go read it already!!
