Forum’s Favourite Thrill - Kelly’s Eye vs. Brigand Doom Round 2 Heat 85

[The Corinthian]

Brigand Doom is one of those strips where I wish Alan McKenzie had been more willing to be an editor first and foremost, and hand over a great premise (with a great artist) to someone else to develop. The first series of Doom is great but McKenzie obviously had no real idea of where to take it after that.

Kelly's Eye has a difficult premise: an entirely invulnerable man keeps being shot at by ... idiots? His one weakness? Nope, sorry - didn't you hear us? He's invulnerable. Okay, so the problems he faces are more nuanced than just physical danger? Nope, sorry. He just gets into physical non-danger. The exciting part is that he's invulnerable!!! For 70 pages.

This is the most accurate review of a comic strip I've ever seen!
