Last year I regularly commented on the issues of the Supernatural comic ‘Origins’, mainly to express my disappointment with it. I didn’t pick up that habit with the new series ‘Rising Son’, because I didn’t really think it was worth the effort. Yesterday though I read the latest issue of the comic and I was so outraged, that I needed to comment on it. It’s not pretty, you’ve been warned!

I didn’t write up a separate review for Origins #5 and #6 yet, since I had actually not much to nitpick over the latest issues, well, at least in terms of canon errors. They took a turn with the story that avoided any distinct referrals to events that were mentioned in the show so far, so at least there were no serious continuity errors this time around.

After all the back and forth with Peter Johnson after the last issue of ‘Origins’ I was kind of curious about the next one, curious if they learned from their mistakes and though I enjoyed the 4th issue a bit more than the rest of it, I am still far from being happy.

Well, all I can say is, that this issue really managed to piss me off more than ever. Do these writers pay attention to the actual show .. at all?

Issue #2 of Origins is out for a couple of days and I have to say I am underwhelmed to say the least. Here are some short thoughts on the new comic.

So, I read the first edition of the Supernatural comic 'Origins', which explores the 22 years that lie between the Pilot and and Mary's death. Since I guess the comics will be considered canon, I wrote down some of my impressions.
