The Red Ten #0

[cyberghostface]

"THE RED TEN is how I would kill The Justice League if DC was crazy enough to let me. (They’re not.) I’m borrowing the structure the Agatha Christie’s classic 'And Then There Were None' because I think it’s one that is uniquely suited to the comic book format. C’mon, a ten issue mini-series, each issue a character dies and one of the survivors is likely behind it all? Add superpowers to the mix and you’ve got a funny book I want to read!

I first read Christie’s book in the fifth grade. The brilliant thing about it was that when re-reading it for THE RED TEN research, I realized I had no idea who the killer was right until the last few pages…even though I had already read it! Now that’s a good whodunnit. I hope we can keep readers guessing all the way to issue #10." -- Tyler James

Yeah, I expect that to a certain degree a lot of non-Big Two superhero comics are going to have derivative characters, since writers are frequently looking to deal with the broad archetypes, but this seems unusually shameless. I don't really want to label it as fan fiction as a perjorative, but the whole thing just seems a little pointless. I mean, if someone can get a comic made and takes themselves seriously as a writer, surely there has to be something they'd rather do than thinly veiled fanfic.
