Eight Billion Genies Deluxe Edition Vol. 1

Product Information

When Robbie wishes for his genie to transform him into a powerful superhero strong enough to protect his parents and find a safe haven for them amidst the chaos, the genie follows his childish drawing to a T, making him so huge that his arms are as big as his formerly child-sized body. The effect with such a short book is that it feels a bit rushed at times, like we're just jumping from idea to idea, skipping all the juicy bits, and ultimately feels like an awesome bullet-pointed outline.

Ed uses his wish to bring his wife, June, back to life, wording it extremely carefully to ensure that there isn't any of "that monkey's paw shit". I can imagine how powerful this would really be if it were a longer series, and we had time to really live in this world, witness the characters change, really sit with the consequences of decisions, and see these ideas evolve. While they do bicker over what to do in their current crisis, it's clear that Wang Zhang and his wife Lifeng dearly love each other and the two fret about one another constantly. Worth checking out but I wasn't a huge fan of where Soule took the premise and Ryan Browne's artwork, although certainly a professional level, isn't really my cup of tea.Finance is provided by PayPal Credit (a trading name of PayPal UK Ltd, Whittaker House, Whittaker Avenue, Richmond-Upon-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom, TW9 1EH). Pre-Mortem One-Liner: Just before finishing off the vampire that tried to kill him, Wang says that if he has anything to say about it, the vampire will remain thirsty, forever. And while Brian does die relatively young in his 50's, it at least wasn't from a violent skirmish or wish gone awry, and the nature of his own wish leaves Daisy immortal when Alex dies twenty years later. Then, when Wang refuses on account of Bernie's blackmail being meaningless with society all but collapsed, Bernie tries to wish Wang dead. Apocalypse How: The genies' arrival on Earth has triggered a Class 1 Apocalypse, as people's ill-thought out wishes lead to enormous death and destruction.

He figured that he needed to be prepared for a wildfire after watching all the friction being created all over the world even before the genies came to Earth.Ambiguously Brown: The art style makes it hard to tell if Brian is supposed to be African-American or just a white guy with curly hair and a tan.

Will: I always told myself, "Get ready, Will Williams, because it's a big world out there and anything can happen. Anchored in a pub in Michigan that becomes a magical sanctuary for eight people to ride out the chaos, “8BG” was originally released as eight single issues beginning in May 2022. Very interesting premise and a really solid story until the last few issues where it feels like the creators kinda lost the plot/didn't know how to end the story. They spend almost all of their page time drinking at Will's bar and refusing to pay until Will complains.Lastly, they are able to offer minor assistance—interpreting languages, offering insight on what other people are doing, and so on—at their discretion without requiring a wish to do so. However, his middle name Demetrius is a very "black" name, and it's possible that he could be mixed and deliberately drawn with ambiguous racial features.
