Prince John

I think one of the things that makes it so specific in particular and dark, as you're talking about, is that, ironically, it's a very human story.

It's this idea of watching people that are dealing with this traumatic event, which is Prince John overlording and just sucking them dry of all of their money in the purpose of taxes.

And it's not a straight line narrative.

They take a lot of time to show you the human cost of what's going on and how people can overcome the difficulties that are going on in their daily lives.

But the way that we're kind of framing it is basically like.

If there's like 50 or 60 chapters in there and we saw 10 or 12 of them, what are the other chapters? And so that's how we see each issue going.

Yes, there will be a straight through narrative of Robin trying to defeat Prince John.

But we're jumping around and we're going to focus on different characters in different parts of Sherwood Forest as we go.

Here's what, what they did with Fryer Tuck the other day.

Like, what are they cooking? What, you know, what's, what's Prince John upset about? What's what Sporter made Marion and Lady Cluck playing? So there's just something about it just being just cool to just like flip on.

And at any point, You're not lost.

You get what it is.

I think a lot of, because of the era, but also the tone of the story, I think a lot of like the original M.A.S.H. movie, you know, for the kids out there who love M.A.S.H., uh but there's a there's a very like robert altman kind of quality to the storytelling where it's like kind of it's almost like set the camera down and watch these characters interact and and and from that you get that relationship like the first thing that you see them doing i mean it's in the it's in the song it's like they're just walking through the forest doing this and this and that and just like letting the day pass them by and then they get chased and then they hide and then they just kind of hang out in a tree you know it's like there's not many modern movies or any movies really where like animated movies, especially where it's just like, why don't we just spend like four minutes just like talking in a tree just to hang out.

Um, so you really get to not just with Robin and, and little John that that's like a very, that's a great, um, relationship, but any of the characters' relationships to one another.

Like Prince John and Hiss, you feel like they are, you see them instantly bonded and connected.

Cluck and Marion, and then the little kids that come to hang out with them.

Uh-huh.

And there's a picture of Prince John.

Of Prince John.

Yeah.

I like the, the, the vultures and the Sheriff of Nottingham, like everything with them.

So every time I hear PJ[laughs] I just, I just think of, of, of that scene in Robin Hood.

[laughs] It's so good.

Is your CEO like Prince John? [laughs]
