"American Caper" & "A Better Paradise": Absurd Ventures' Bold Foray into New Realms
Absurd Ventures just confirmed what we've all been whispering about: "American Caper" and "A Better Paradise" are more than just rumor mill grist. They're real, they're coming, and they're about to blow our collective minds. I stumbled upon this little gem of info lurking in the depths of Reddit (where else, right?), and boy, does it pack a punch.
A Dysfunctional Family Romp Meets Crime Caper
First up, we've got "American Caper." Picture this: two average American families, each more messed up than a soup sandwich, thrown into a blender of corrupt business, laughably bad politics, and crime capers that are more 'oops' than 'a-ha'. The cherry on top? It's debuting as a graphic novel illustrated by none other than Simon Bisley. That's right, the Simon Bisley. Expect twisted humor, dysfunctional family shenanigans, and artwork that'll make your eyes pop.
Existential Angst with a Side of Suspense
Then there's "A Better Paradise." It's being touted as an existential suspense thriller set in the near future. And guess what? It's coming at us in the form of a 12-episode audio fiction series. Absurd Ventures is partnering with QCODEmedia to craft what I'm betting will be a mind-bending auditory journey. Think dark, think deep, and prepare to question your very existence.
Strategic or Just Playing It Safe?
Now, let's talk strategy. Absurd Ventures is diving into these universes through, arguably, the most accessible media: graphic novels and audio series. Smart move or playing it safe? I'm leaning towards the former. They're testing the waters, dipping their toes before plunging headfirst into potentially riskier ventures. It's like they're cooking up a storm but starting with the appetizers.
What's Next for These Universes?
The big question now is: what's next? Absurd Ventures promises more info in the coming months, and I'm all ears (and eyes). Will these universes expand into other video games? Or will they crash and burn before that, I hope and expect the first.
A Bold Step into Uncharted Territories
In conclusion, "American Caper" and "A Better Paradise" mark Absurd Ventures' bold step into new creative realms. With intriguing concepts and a knack for picking just the right medium to start with, they've got our attention. Here's to hoping they deliver on the hype and take us on a wild ride through these uncharted territories.
