This week on Collecting Issues, we're talking about The One Hand and The Six Fingers—two five-issue series from Image Comics (2024) by Ram V, Dan Watters, Laurence Campbell, Sumit Kumar, Lee Loughridge, and Tom Muller.Set in the gritty, retro-future city of Neo Novena, these stories unfold from two perspectives: a weary detective facing a familiar case on the eve of retirement, and a brilliant student who wakes up with memories of a murder. What starts as a ritual killing slowly unspools into something much stranger—where nothing is real, everything loops, and the world might just be a cage.We're talking:Murder, glyphs, and glitching cogsNoir tropes used with purpose—not ironyRobots doing people jobs, people thinking like machinesHow these two comics were written in conversation, not collaborationThe big existential ending (and why it works)If you like Blade Runner, The Matrix, Memento, or Dark City, this one's worth your time.

Soylent Green is one of the quintessential Malthusian science fiction films with one of the most memorable endings so we thought it was time to give it a watch. Luckily we did not end up having 40 million people in NYC as of 2022 which is usually how it goes with dystopian theories. We found the movie hard to buy into because of how over the top it is. It has some cool ideas but overall it is not surprising that the movie became more of a punch line than an enduring classic. 00:00 Introduction to Soylent Green 02:51 Cultural Impact and References 05:29 Dystopian Themes and Societal Commentary 08:25 Character Analysis and Relationships 11:09 Malthusian Dystopia and Overpopulation 13:52 Critique of the Film's Logic 16:54 The Role of Food and Consumption 19:40 The Ending and Its Implications 34:46 Soylent Green: A Dark Revelation 38:55 Relationships in a Dystopian World 40:11 Charlton Heston's Performance and Legacy 45:53 Women and Their Roles in Society 54:37 The Consequences of Overpopulation 59:20 Edward G.
