The presentation of all the types of anti-heroes is really interesting, very helpful to TV character analyses.

The south park stick of truth is a recent example on how you can extend the tv media into a game without losing the essence of the tv show.
The game is made by the same creators that does the tv show . Trey Parker and Matt Stone and voiced by the same actors. The game is writen like a new season of material with the same character from the show and because its a animated show the art style can be exactly replicated. And in contrast to other games based on tv show or movie the gameplay in The stick of truth resonate with the tv show and is actually fun to play. Thus making the transition from a tv show to a video game very rewarding to those who partake in it but dosent punish those who dont.

I completely agree with you and I thought you might be interested to know that there is a show coming out next week by MTV called Sweet/Vicious that focuses on two female antiheroes (at least it seems that way from the trailers) very much like Dexter but instead of killing killers, they physically assault sexual assaulters and rapists on campus

I am curious what you might think of Arrow and it’s comic book counterpart. Between season one and two, as well as between season two and three DC Entertainment published a series of comics based on the characters of CW’s adaptation of DC’s Green Arrow. These series were labelled as “Season 1.5” and “Season 2.5” and are meant as a paratextual filler to keep the story going. I have not read the comics, and I find it evident that the television show do not expect its’ readers to have done so.

Reading this, I felt the incredible urge to say thank you for this whole book. I’m a film studies student from Germany, and your work on Complex TV has been the backbone for my thesis, so I’ve spent hours and hours pouring over it. I also am and have been part of numerous fanfiction communities where it’s customary to leave comments which I will always be convinced is a great function of constructive critisism but also exchange generating closeness between author and readers. So: thank you.
