Better Fred Than Dead posted:The original covers are way cooler Yeah, the new covers are downright infantile. Always pay for an artist, folks. Elfface posted:So, wait. Is the guy serially reincarnated, or just immortal? And how come the curse also comes with time travel powers to be in Ancient China despite being cursed by a dying jesus? All men's adventure novels are either written by diehard right-wing freaks who believe whatever the party line is or left-wing people looking for a quick paycheck. So you either get some bland diatribes by lonely old white guys who are way into gun specs or underage sex (William Johnstone, come on down) or actual authors who write well but need some cash (Will Murray, who now writes a poo poo ton of Doc Savage novels) to make the rent. So yeah, these weren't thought out at all. They were designed to appeal to someone in a grocery store to pick up a copy and make a sale. That said, Casca does hold a very unique place in the annals of Men's Adventure novels: two of the 'new' novels were plagiarized from the guy who wrote the Rambo novels. More can be found at the Wikipedia entry for the series in the second paragraph.
