Chapter 72: I'm Not a Man! JOJO! (Ask for collection, ask for recommendation)
Xie Yu is an online writer who has been writing since high school. After graduating from college, he devoted himself to becoming a full-time author.
In order to find inspiration, he needs to always pay attention to changes in the outside world, such as current news, popular movies and TV dramas, new memes, and ...... Naturally, B cup became a frequent website for him. Because this can already be regarded as the largest two-dimensional website in the country of flowers.
He has followed many UP masters at station B, including one with the ID of "There is a Merlin". This is a foreigner who speaks a mouthful of mutton skewers in Mandarin to record some review and recommendation videos of film and television dramas and animation works.
Because it's fun to complain, and it also saves him a lot of time to find popular works, so he will usually click in to see this UP update as soon as he sees it.
On this day, he routinely clicked on the latest video of this UP.
"Hello everyone, I'm Mei Ling, in the last video, I recommended to you the very good-looking martial arts comic "Dragon Babu", so in this issue, let's talk about a comic with a Western background......"
The manga recommended by the UP master is called "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure". The comic begins with a description of the Aztecs, a cannibal tribe in medieval Mexico, leading to the setting of a stone mask. Next, the first to appear is a teenager named Dio Brando.
"It stands to reason that the first one to appear on the stage should be the protagonist, but this author doesn't play cards according to the routine at all, and when I saw the back, I found out that Dior turned out to be a villain, but there are many comics that have villain whitewashing routines, I don't know if Dior is the same, I personally don't want to see whitewashing, because the most attractive thing about him at present is that this person is really bad, the kind that is bad to the bones, and it can be regarded as praising with despicability and shamelessness......"
Mei Ling gave a general introduction to the content of the comics, and then expressed his opinion. Because it's only been serialized for the first time, I can't see the follow-up trend, and his comments are also point-to-point.
Xie Yu was puzzled while reading it, how could he dare to recommend a comic with such a little content? Is it to collect money to advertise?
"Seeing this, you must be wondering, is this issue actually unguardable? NO!!! Absolutely not, I Mei Ling uses love to generate electricity, never advertises, and I don't know how to advertise, there are two main points that I recommend this comic...... One, the author of this comic is really non-human, and others are considered highly productive to update 20 pages a week, but she actually updates 60 pages a week, it's just crazy, is she a human flesh printing press? ”
"As for the second point, the highlight is coming, please look here, do you see this beauty on the cover? That's right, she's the author of JOJO! It's not women's clothing, it's not 3D, this time it's a real beautiful manga artist! I—I'm so licking, Lai Lai Lai ......"
In the video, Mei Ling stuck out her tongue and licked the cover in the air, and her mouth also emitted strange onomatopoeia. The barrage just in time floated past a piece of "Perverted UP!" I called the police! "Uncle Policeman, this is the guy".
After watching this video, Xie Yu was moved, and he also wanted to buy a copy to take a look. He swore that it was definitely not because the cover was too beautiful, he was simply curious about the comics.
"JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE?" It was rare to go out, and he bought the magazine back against the sun he had not seen for a long time.
When he saw this video, it was actually the second week, so he bought the latest issue in one go.
The second time, JOJO is also 4 episodes and 60 pages in a row. Just like Mei Ling said, it's a human flesh printing machine.
With this amount, even if the content of the comic is average, it can attract a lot of readers.
After buying it home, Xie Yu did not rush to open it, but looked at the cover of the first book in a daze.
Because this is really beautiful, it's not surprising to say which big star she is.
"Is such a person really a cartoonist? Could it be hype? Xie Yu would inevitably think so. In fact, there are many similar remarks on the Internet, and many people don't believe that drawing comics can be so beautiful.
After watching it for a while, Xie Yu officially began to read the comics.
He had already learned some of the content of the first 4 episodes from Mei Ling, but when he watched it, he was still deeply impressed by Dior's badness. This person is simply too despicable, and the main character, JOJO, is simply a bit cowardly in comparison. It was always Dio who targeted him, and then he endured it silently, and even the girl he liked was taken away by Dio's first kiss, and the dog that saved his life was burned to death.
"I really want to hack this Dior to death, JOJO's dad is really stupid, the family is idiots, let the Dior father and son play around, how did this kind of family pass on?" As an online writer, Xie Yu is naturally most disgusted with this kind of abusive plot. According to him, if this kind of plot is written at the beginning of the novel, it is really accurate.
However, the tolerance of comic book readers is always greater than that of novels. After all, there are really not as many comic works as online articles, and although JOJO's art style is unique, it also has a unique charm.
He continued to look down, and the foreshadowing was finally over, and the main line began. Dior plotted to rob the family business of the JOJO family and poisoned Lao Qiao, but was exposed by JOJO, and in desperation, he shouted: "I'm not a man!" JOJO! ”
Dio kills Old Joe, then puts on a stone mask, and then falls to the ground with random gunfire.
While JOJO is grieving the death of his father, Dio comes back to life and becomes an immortal vampire.
At this point, this comic has finally stepped from an ordinary medieval plot into the category of superpowers.
In fact, there was a plot of Dior being chased by vampires before, but it was too inconspicuous and far less shocking than this scene at this time.
Seeing this, the 4 episodes of the second episode are also over.
Xie Yu couldn't help but start looking forward to the plot of the next issue. Somehow, this manga seems to have a special charm that makes people want to keep reading it.
"What is the origin of this stone mask? Dior has become too strong this time, can JOJO beat him? ”
Just as Xie Yu was thinking about the plot in the comics, the phone suddenly rang.
He picked it up and saw that the caller ID was "brother".
"Hello?"
"Hey, Xiaoyu, today is Christmas Eve, anyway, your single dog is also alone, just come to our house and help me take care of the child!" Your sister-in-law and I plan to go out and live in a two-person world! How about I send you a 1111 red envelope? ”
"Brother...... Don't you think your words are very heart-wrenching? ”
