I’ll be at Supercon tomorrow so pardon any silence! For the past two days I’ve been scrambling to get my cosplay to 100%, and hopefully will be able to reply to everyone on Saturday. Thanks for your patience! ā¤

Okay, Iā€™m just going to start by saying this: I love Techie, and I love how the writers gave this HUGE nod to his fans and his fandom. But this short comic book story took all the AUā€™s, all the ships and the fan-made lore and turned it to shit.

I wouldnā€™t be as pissed if the comic was good. But they changed Techieā€™s body type (if y’all remember, Domhnall isnā€™t skinny as a stick), they gave him a mediocre name LITERALLY MADE OUT OF TWO OF DOMHNALLā€™S OTHER CHARACTERS, and perhaps most importantly (to me at least) they either omitted or forgot about Techieā€™s mechanical eyes.

The short flashes of Techie that we saw in Dredd painted a picture of a traumatized man scared for his life and willing to do anything to help him survive. Now, he has a wife & kid, he has logged all that emotional and physical trauma away and is just a dissatisfied ex-criminal? I DO NOT accept that. Techie has scars and tattoos and his eyes were literally gouged out and replaced, and all of this characterization was ignored in the comic.

I may love the Dredd fandom and Techie getting recognition, but frankly I believe we deserve better than this thrown-together thing.

That is a big issue for me honestly

Like okay the inflammation would be gone but the eyes themselves?

And where did he meet Zoe? How did he get over the trauma of the sexual abuse he went through?

I have mixed feelings about new Techie canon.

First ā€“ good things.

1. Iā€™m glad that our interest is shared, it is nice to have more company.
2. Not just shared. It is a whole graphic novel, as I see. So, both story and art. Thatā€™s cool.
3. It is high quality content.

Second ā€“ why my feelings are mixed

1. ā€œBill Huxleyā€ looks like a wink to the fans. But names are intended to highlight something about the character. Thatā€™s why we have Armitage Hux and not Lucien Hux, judge Cassandra but not judge Medea. Bill Huxley sounds like someone with a firm handshake.

2. And so he looks. Like a cool guy with firm handshake, square jaw and washboard abs. Iā€™m not against that version, but the movie never prepared me for this.

3. That may be my own problem ā€“ I donā€™t know the plot, only snippets from people I follow. Soā€¦ Work, apartment, wife and son? Thatā€™s what happens after mafia rip out your eyes? It is, I donā€™t know, predictable generally, like a universal treatment to any hero malady, but somehow unpredictable in case of Techie, I think.
