This explains a lot. Even things I didn't want to have explained.

Why they already ruined it by letting these same kinds of shitbirds do the 2nd season.
Only things Netflix made worth a damn besides Marvel stuff was Marco Polo season 1 and the 100 Eyes short.

Some of the Love, Death, Robots shit was pretty good. And Ozark is pretty much their GOAT series.

Is that what it was? I loved (most) of S1. Then S2 hit and it was just god awful.

Black Watchmen, Black Lovecraft, Black Altered Carbon ... slam dunk IPs with big fan bases that SJWs went out of their way to ruin with Marxism and forcing the race issue.
The anime version of AC 'Resleeved' Netflix made was better than season 2, and it was pretty bad.

3 books are very very different. Same main character... very different situations, themes and writing style.
Kovacs isn't just resleeved into new bodies he is put into very different genres.

R K Morgan is popcorn fun for the most part. He is not 'deep' like Gibson. Most of his stuff really is written like a summer movie. He pings a lot on Johnny Mnemonic, Terminator, Alien, etc etc.
His book Market Forces is basically Rollerball + Death Race + American Psycho. I wouldn't say derivative, but you can see the influences plain as day.

That part of the book is mostly the future echo of 80s era corporate capitalist now ruling the world. Literally corporate wars because they are now the competing governments and settle disputes with Death Races instead of military conflict. Reminded me a lot of the Steve Jackson Car Wars game with duels.
He probably smoked a lot of weed and played Spy Hunter when he wrote it.

Yeah Arcane is the best show on Netflix right now, animated or otherwise.
And it's not even close.

'Cowboy Bebop' Netflix cancelation could doom future anime adaptations
With Netflix canceling its ambitious adaptation of the anime 'Cowboy Bebop,' years of overthinking things suddenly mean nothing. Can we keep doing this?
