Who here pays attention to the series made by Fred Perry? Has anyone put any thought into what they'd want if Fred Perry were to make an ultimate Gold Diggers version of his series (Like Ultimate Marvel)? What sort of changes do you think he'd make to it as a whole?

Regardless, what changes would you make?

Here are mine:

First the setting: Magic would be more traditional, rather than being Magic From Technology and Magitek it's instead not something someone using science can figure out, it'd follow its own rules, with both science and magic being separate from one another. Magitek would be exist, with it being a fusion of both science and magic rather than being the rules of another universe being put into play.

A number of the races are inherently magical, some more so than others, with some being more or less bound to the laws of science than others. Along with this there are races that are the result of Magitek, being created as the result both science and magic combined into one.

Now the characters: Gina is bisexaul, liking woman as much as men.

Dreadwing isn't the biggest bad guy in the series, with there being other villains all over the place.

I have been slowly catching up with it over time. Honestly, the only thing I'd change is tone down the gratuitous cheesecake fan service. There's a line at which it just gets distracting, and he crosses it way too many times.

Isn't that something Fred's known for, dude likes his smut.

Nothing wrong with that, hell, I like my smut, but when I'm getting into a fun action or adventure scene, I could do without having giant boobs and asses shoved in my face, obscuring my view of the giant robots battling the evil dark lich. There's a point where I'm just like, "Look, if I wanted to see boobs, I'd be looking at boobs, not an adventure comic."

Anyway, I've read some more of the series since, but I keep putting it down and getting distracted by other stuff. It's still a fun series, and the fan-service gets less gratuitous especially when it goes into the color series. I do like how he mixes all the elements of different genres together.

As for the topic, I don't know what I'd change at this point, other than maybe cutting out some extraneous characters and maybe changing the time travel rules just a bit. Oh, and I'd cut out all the blatant referencing of other works. I know he was probably one of the first to embrace it so much, but after five years of TGWTG and twelve or so of Family Guy, the last thing I care to see in a story these days is, "Look! You remember this thing that existed? ME TOO!"

Referencing other works so much, is another one of his weak points, even so, I do like the characters, I just wished some of them went into a different direction, Brittany. Gina's sister being one of them; While I like magic, I don't like how she gained the power she's now has.

Yeah. The shame of it is, he knows how to turn a reference into something creative and funny unto itself, like the Vaultron Force, he just doesn't most of the time.

I've still got a lot to catch up to. Think I'm only on, like, issue 25 of volume 2. Guess I'll chime in some more when I've read more to comment on. I think vol. 2 is past a hundred issues at this point.

Think my favorite character so far s Brianna. I like that he took what could have easily been a one-note schlock character idea and worked to give her a well-rounded identity.
