And it decided dzero writes like Stephen King I'm probably the only person in the world never to have read a single word written by King. Oh well I assume this means that website will now pay me what King gets per book. I'm waiting No your not, I haven't either and I've no real desire to.

I read (and loved) the books King wrote as Richard Bachman, especially The Regulators. The scary ones, though...I read It and Cujo, and found them a little boring ` It decided I write like Stephanie Meyer...someone kill me, please

Seriously, this is unchartered territory, you could invent a whole new sub-genre of chaste-romantic-mystic Vampire Dark Angel... ;D I liked Love in Vein, I think they could have done more with these types of transgenics if the series had continued. Hm, yes, jein.... I liked the idea (compared to snakes and slime monsters certainly was one of the better ones) but not how it was executed. (Though I still might have liked it better if this episode had been standing alone, not within the context of the general S2 strangeness) I like the basic idea that there would be all kinds of transgenics for all kinds of purposes - it picks up what we know from S1 about Max being an universal donor and takes it further. And okay, they used the idea but they could have done so much more from it. (Mancticore would probably use them for their own needs - soldiers wounded in battle - but there also would be a market, people who would need organs, blood, bone marrow...) And I can buy the idea too that one of these guys would take advantage of the situation and would create a cult of followers. But the execution of it... as with the whole of S2 the general atmosphere was kind of undecided between mystifying-glorifying and absurd-ridiculing. It didn't have the gritty feeling of S1, showing the what-if of a Post Pulse sceario. And after all this geeking, as all S2 episodes this one just lacked the right amount of M/L goodness to make me really happy. ;D
