Watched Wolf King, had to draw Vega
Havn't read the books, but this looks really cool!
“Best Group Hug EVER!”☀️🐉🐺⚔️
What if the characters of Tangled, Trollhunters, How to Train Your Dragon, and Wolf King joined together? I've been wanting to make a crossover that makes sense for years, and now I finally thought of one! It stars Rapunzel, accompanied by Pascal; Hiccup, accompanied by Toothless; Jim Lake Jr.; and Drew Ferran. I kinda want to write an AU story with these characters, but I'm still deciding whether to go ahead with the idea. Plus, I'm still thinking of and working on a group name for them. But until then, I'm probably just going to do some doodles just for the fun of it. What do you all think of this new crossover group idea? Let me know what you think in the comments.
I don't own the rights to the characters; they belong to their rightful owners: The Walt Disney Company, Dreamworks Pictures & Animation Television & Lime Pictures.
Okay so I just read Wereworld by Curtis Jobling after watching Wolf King on Netflix, because I found myself intrigued by the concept and heard that the books were for a more mature audience - and I have to day, after reading it, I do kinda wish that the show had leaned more towards the gritty, horror fantasy aspect of the books.
Look, I love me a good adaptation, especially for more underrated book series', but personally, I feel the show would've benefitted more narrtively and visually if it had been geared towards an older audience.
I really think it would've provided a really interesting dichotomy between Drew and his innocent, pure drive for peace for everyone living in Lyssia, and the violence that he has to endure and cause himself to get to that peace.
Because, give me Drew Ferran, young, Cold Coast sheperd boy who adores his mother and is best friends with his brother and loves his father even when he's a grouch, and is quite possibly one of the sweetest lads around, and watch him be faced with horrors of the world as all kinds of people try to tear him down for revenge against the father he never knew he had, and his lycanthropy making his life absolutely impossible.
Give me Drew Ferran stumbling into the Dyrewood with Mack Ferran's wolfshead blade still in his stomach as he reels from witnessing his mother murdered right in front of his eyes by a monster, and then having to live in the most inhospitable forest in the world for six months with nothing and no one to offer him a helping hand, as he's left to fend for himself, cold, alone and without his family, who hate him for thinking he murdered Tilly, and wondering what the hell he actually is when his hands become claws and his teeth feel too sharp in his mouth and he has to abandon his humanity to survive.
Like, I really would've loved to see glimpses of that struggle we see in the books as he tries to get by in the Dyrewood, and then finally meets Witley and Hogan. (Btw its so hilarious the way my guy is entirely oblivious to the fact that whitely is a girl until the very end of the book - peak comedy, 10/10, no notes)
Speaking on the visuals for a second, the show is absolutely stunning to looks at, and I really enjoyed the story book feel to the animation - but again, I feel like it was really lacking in showing how powerful the therianthropes really are by toning down the damage they can deal, because it does get pretty gorey in the books, considering Drew rips his own hand off at one point - badass behaviour from my baby boy I gotta say (don't come at me Drew is slowly becoming my new blorbo)
And my god, the final battle at the end of the first book is truly one of the most phenomenally frightening, high-stakes fight I've ever read, like I was genuinely at the edge of my seat wondering how the actual fuvk Drew was gonna get himself out of this one, and I think the show really puts itself at a disadvantage by not going all out with it - because can you imagine:
The courtyard is covered in fire, and it's casting the entire scene with a burning, orange glow, there's smoke everywhere , and Drew is stumbling back from the Rat King brothers, battered, bloody and bruised after watching another parent die in front of his eyes again, and now he has to fight these fuckers that have killed most of his family and made his life a living hell, with basically no energy, lycanthropy he can barely control, and a dream that it might all be better one day if he can get through this?
Chills. Literal chills.
I've got some criticisms on the book as a whole, but I think I'll go into them another time - but they're fantastic books with such insane lore and world building, it feels real, and that's such an important part of writing a good fantasy I feel like, because a lot of fantasy stories these days don't do much to flesh out the actual the world their characters are in, struggling to strike that balanceof narrative cohesion and having a world that feel livable for your characters to inhabit.
Overall, yeah - I think Wolf King is a good show, but it's really holding itself back from what it could be by being a show for younger kids, and I would really like to see it do well in the future regardless of what I think it could be doing better
Drew: I still don’t understand--just WHY do you like me again?
Whitley: Because you're sweet and funny
Drew: Well Gretchen says I'm grumpy and bitter, so one of you is lying
Currently watching NETFLIX Wolf King for the first time and we’ve just met Vega. Man is giving me John Seed vibes.
He just seems SO cunty 😅
Please tell me I’m not the only one who see it!
I’m slowly forgetting your face…
Spoilers for Wereworld 1-6.
