I’ve never had any problem with “gory bits”, Tharg. I have every season of The Walking Dead on DVD. Though it’s really a character-driven show, finding new and interesting ways to deal with the ‘walkers’ (often cringe-worthy but sometimes also blackly funny) is part of the ‘fun’. 🙂
On the other hand,I’m not sure if I want to support the perpetuation of one-dimensional female characters. Hmm . . . I’ve put Poison City and Clockwork City in the basket, but I may have higher priorities – as I said, I have’t got all the Bryant & Mays yet!
