    avatar
    you know i think i know the name of the little girl that Linkara is talking about.... SAMATHA FUCKING MAXIS
    that's right that same girl from the Nazi Zombies mode on WaW and Black ops. his story sound like the origin for how samatha got control of the nombies

    The comics are horiffic. I can not understand how you can read them and then write a review without giving yourself a migraine.
  • Dracowrath

    He does, but he fights through the pain to give us the review. He's just awesome like that.

    It's not fair for me to say these comics suck (I never read them), though I'm greatful for you for showing me why I shouldn't read them. :)

    P.S. Silent hill comics suck. nuff said. :/
  • DMaster
    Not necessarily. Given as how Linkara did like that other one he reviewed last year, I'd say it's more that Scott Ciencin's horror writing sucks.
  • NCscritic
    awesome NC cameo.

    I totally love how the Dog is the smartest character in this whole comic. for some reason, I just love that dog.
  • RexRoyd  - Oh Hi Doggy
    avatar
    The dog is the only smart creature in the silent hill comic universe! And the coulour schemes of the comics just give me a headache

    The NC scene made me laugh... especially the Bat Credit Card bit... that was funny.

    Something tells me that was was really Mechakara telling him to kill Pollo...

    Why do reviewers like silent hill so much. Yahtzee is also a huge Silent HIll fan. but yeah this sucks it isnt even Lovecraftian. The silent hill writers were inspired by Lovecraft and he just is entirely origional in an utterly awful way. Also have you noticed how Power Girl is more consistently written than Wonder Woman.
  • ThePsychoGamer
    The gamplay is enjoyable, and the series did Horror well, for the first two games. Still it's nowhere near Survival Horror franchises like Fatal Frame
  • ThatDudeInTheUshanka
    avatar
    Silent hill isnt survival horror it is horror plain and simple you can barely fight off the monsters and are in general better off running.
  • ThePsychoGamer
    Running is still a form of survival, (I believe that was the point of Shattered memories)
  • ThatDudeInTheUshanka
    avatar
    Shattered memories wasn't all that scary though so its more survival instead survival horror.
  • ThePsychoGamer
    But was intended it be scary. It may not of succeeded in the horror department, but it still tries to be a horror. Thus it is classified as Survival Horror
  • Wermin
    WTF is lovecraft?
  • Shihan42
    One of the greatest, if not the greatest, horror writers of all time. You definitely look his stuff up. Specifically his Cthulhu mythos.

    also general silent hill question why do the sexy nurse demons show up in Silent Hill 3 when they are supposed to represent in 2 the Characters frustrated libido. In 1 they looked disgusting and malformed in 3 they are still the sexy ones. what are they symbolic of repressed lesbian urges?
  • ThatGeekWithTheTemper
    avatar
    For that matter, Pyramid Head shouldn't be in anything outside of SH2, since he's a representation of James Sunderland's feelings and urges, as he (James) states almost explicitly in one ending.

    Sweet Cthulhu, how hard is it to make a Silent Hill comic? I can't even justify these in any way.
  • ThatDudeInTheUshanka
    avatar
    until the games where made by americans pyramid head had a very limited role.
  • SpecterM91
    avatar
    He was in Silent Hill: The Arcade. The only western developed game with him in it is Homecoming, and from what I understand, it isn't THE Pyramid Head.
  • ThatDudeInTheUshanka

    The arcade game never happened and every silen hill fan knows that

    What I know it is supposed to be a mix between the memory of the hospital nurses and the memory of Lisa Garland(who got a little bit of sexy nurse look to her). But, since the second game, they just seemed to stick with the sexy nurse monster.

    Wait, doesn't the siren call a world that's grotesque and nightmarish not the world made of fog? And what, did Linkara kill Liz or something?
  • Uberpig
    avatar
    Actually, Obscurus Lupa got blown up in her last review. It would be interesting if it was Linkara who did it.
    Although why he would do it is beyond me. Mind you, this is Silent Hill so nothing has to make any sense.
  • Jedi Knight Z
    avatar
    that siren just makes a change caus in silent hill 1 it took you out of the other world at 1 point sory im a fahboy
  • coolpilot  - Urg.....
    avatar
    Can I kill myself now? Cause this comic is truely terrible. :sick:

    Also, this comic IS scary. Scary [i]bad[/i]. :scared:
  • Mithian
    Wouldn't it be cool if the comic creator was sent to silent hill and haunted by aspects of failed creativity?
  • PLA
    Would his monsters be stickmen or something?
  • Kari
    Ink pools that form silhouettes when you arrive and eat you, I'm thinking.
  • KingGramJohnson  - Intro
    avatar
    Linkara, these intros are cool. You writing a novel or something? Cause if this is something you're writing and now sharing in these cool intros to the Silent Hill reviews, then I'm down with it. I wanna hear more. Is that what it's all about?
  • ThatDudeInTheUshanka
    avatar
    I noticed that some of that had to do with the plot of three in a minor way that i wont reveal because it is a massive spoiler.
  • dahud
    avatar
    I don't know where these intros are coming from, Mr Kara, but they're almost better than the review itself. I'd be happy if your halloween special was just you spinning scary stories.

    Great NC cameo

    Stop pissing him off
  • sombrafox
    avatar
    If he just paraphrased the comic I would have been bored. the side stories are the spice that makes it interesting.
  • UponAMidnightClear  - Thank you
    [size=medium][color=navy] For putting your sanity on the line in the name of entertainment, I thank you, Linkara. The Intros really are better than the comics and more spooky. [/color][/size]

    Nice NC cameo.
    Geez do those comics look horrible. The artwork looks like it's been drawn by a six year old with half a box of crayons.

    Don't kill the robot!!!
  • DWP102589  - OOOOKAAAAAAAAYY....
    So let me see it I can get this straight:

    Lauryn is in control of the town, but lost control of it to Lenora, which somehow restored Christabella to being alive again, and gave her Lauryn's powers, and Lenora, for no apparent reason wants to turn Kenneth into a serial killer because that would somehow spread the town's evil over the world; but he was lured to the town by his "empty vessel" of an ex, and she has something to do with the town's power, but all along Lenora was really Lauryn who changed herself into Lenora so she can......uhhhhhhhh......b oingo boinga bababooee whoopedooeee blahblahshumacka @#$#$%^(%^^%&(%%)^^&^$(% $#@@!#$#@$%#$%#$%
  • Amy!
    avatar
    Yep, that's pretty much it.

    When I saw Lenora was Lauryn, my head just sort of imploded.
  • thelovelynerd29  - yay
    avatar
    Wow, the beginning was CREEEEEEPPPPPPYYYY! Reinforces an early comment I made about you being such an awesome storyteller. =D
    loved the random NC cameo, made me laugh
    I had a long and rough day at work today, and to come home and watch this awesome video made me all happy inside =D
  • FullmetalNinja25

    I love the creepy openings to the first 2 videos and the overarching story. =)

    Great review Lewis! =D

    "Monsters? Is that what they look like to you? [i]Don't worry, it's just a joke![/i]"
  • Linkara
    avatar
    Suuuuuuure it is, Vincent. Suuuuure it is.
  • ThatDudeInTheUshanka
    avatar
    I really like to think he wasnt joking because it feels like "No John you are the demons"done right and horrifyingly so.
  • OmegaSama
    avatar
    Dear gods this comic is shitty... I feel sorry for you for having to actually read it in order to review it. =(
  • BoredDragon  - I've figured it out
    The reason why these Silent Hill comics are so bad is because they are from Silent Hill. They are designed to seek out and torture the poor souls of the comic readers who would actually buy these pieces of crap.
  • orzene
    avatar
    Paint It Black wasn't bad. At least the artwork was somewhat coherent. :

    And frankly, the only story that HAD ANYTHING to do with what Silent Hill is.... Fuck the rest of this parallel-universe garbage with whatever the hell is going on in that canon.

    Linkara did people sacrifice a little girl to make your magic gun?! o_O

    *cut to a cab stopping right outside of Silent Hill*

    Ash: *Opens one of the doors off the cab form the inside and Thorws the dumbass fuckwad that worte this pile of HORSE SHIT into the town*
    Thats for ripping off my line you retarded ass clown! *gets back in the cab* Ok dude, drive us out of here.

    Duke: *Is Driving* Groovie.

Nothing can be created without giving up something of equal or greater value to create....and if his gun is as powerful as Mechakara said....... Well, GOOD LUCK LINKARA! *Runs for his emergency end of the world bunker*

    A dog named Bear isn't as random as you think. I have a friend who has a dog named Bear. :P
  • Linkara
    avatar
    It just seems bizarre to me to name one animal after another. It's like naming your hamster dung beetle.
  • Shanetefilmmaker
    well to this dog it would seem bizarre, but if you seen an Akita bear would be a very appropriate name for it.

    I loved that comparisons to horror monsters. Really helps painting this comic as ass.

    Just watch Peter Jackson's "Dead Alive." Much better than this one.
  • Lucia32
    "Didn't Sam Rami make that"

    No, that would be "Evil Dead".

    Peter Jackson made "Dead Alve" (aka "Brain Dead").
