The artwork was fitting, gritty and matched the feel of the movie. The story was quick and easy to read and had a great pace, without feeling to rushed. Or met her loyal lieutenant, but I guess that will be left to our imaginations. I would've loved to have seen how she rose to power and took down the rival gangs. I could really have done with another twenty plus pages of stories. After giving Lester a dose of Eric's slow-mo, Madeline asks him to call her Ma-Ma, before castrating him with her teeth and publicly dumping his body in the pleasure district. The city her finally pushed her too far and all she could do was start fighting back. Walking in on Lester killing her love Eric, Madeline's resolve finally broke. Unfortunately for the pair Madeline's pimp Lester found out about them and paid Eric an unhealthy visit. Cheap to produce and highly addictive, this drug was to be their ticket out and the start of a new life for them both. Eric a drug technician, had just created a new form of Narcotics called- Slow-mo. Madeline had no hope left as life crushed down on her, but that seemed to be changing, ever since she'd met Eric. For her life seems to pass by in painfully slow motion, living in a run down slum house, working for an abusive pimp, she sees no escape. Basically Ma-Ma controls the MA-MA Clan and is running a huge drug ring from their Block called Peach Tree in Sector 13.Īs the comic begins we get introduced to Madeline, a drug abusing, alcoholic, working girl from the pleasure districts. For those who haven't seen the movie I highly recommend watching it (there will be a future review). It gives us a fuller background on the main villain of the Film Ma-Ma. This comic as already mentioned is the prologue to the movie. Now lucky for us readers both comics are now free to download over on the 2000 AD Website, so go treat yourself to them. This comic is an exclusive prologue to the major motion picture. Why two? Well the main reason is they are quite short tales, one being only 12 pages long and it seems wasteful to not put them together. For today we are reviewing the movie comic spin-offs.
I'm back and so are the damn comics! The theme for the reading is good old Dredd, but not in his classic form.
