Because the only thing more reliable than entropy is irony?

Blue Kitty:
Oh man, they're making a cartoon
KvP:
Dead Space also got a cartoon. Numerous EA properties have gotten comics. It's part of a holistic business model EA is trying out I guess.
I like that creature concept. Lovecraftian, it is. I might just use it with my Arkham Horror game.
Doug S. Machina:
Inferno is a pretty cool guy. eh kills dimons and doesn't afraid of anything.
(Sorry if that's overused.)
I watched one of the trailers, and it looks like they gave The Divine Comedy to Don Simpson or some other bombastic Hollywood producer, and it came out (trailer voice) "Midway through the journey of our lives, Dante found himself in Hell...AND FOUGHT HIS WAY BACK OUT!"
It does seem like the connections to Dante are just a dusting of literary reference to make the monster-slaying look deep.

Both in imagery and just the sheer fact that Dante Aligheri was a dude who was like "fuck you guys, I'm going to invent the entire afterlife, use it as a narrative to explore the sins and redemption of man, to mack on a lady, to hate on my enemies, and do it all in the vernacular, in sharp contrast to the rest of you fucks who dig on Latin"

This I like.

It turns out that's not true. I hope it's better than this one appears to be though.

Wait: "EA are serious enough about this "new intellectual property" thing with Dante's Inferno to go making cartoons." EA owns Dante now? Surely not.
