YMMV / The Crow

Go To

Works in this franchise with their own YMMV pages:

The franchise in general:

  • Complete Monster: See here.
  • I Am Not Shazam: The revenant protagonists of the franchise (most notably Eric Draven) are not "The Crow". The titular Crow is... the crow, the supernatural black bird that carries their soul back to their body then empowers and guides them.
  • Sequelitis: In both media.
  • The Woobie:
    • Eric and Shelley. Hot damn.
    • James O'Barr. All the pain, self-hatred and survivor's guilt Eric displays is taken from his own experiences with his fiancee dying. Even worse, he became extremely close with Brandon Lee, only to have him taken away too.

The comic books:

  • Awesome Music: Yes, for a graphic novel. Trust Obey released a soundtrack entitled "Fear and Bullets: Music to Accompany the Crow Comic Book" and is specifically made to play while you read.
  • Awesome Art: Flesh And Blood, and Dead Time have the best art.
  • Tear Jerker: The Crow: Curare features a detective obsessed over a brutal rape and murder of a small child named Carrie, whom the Crow brings back. Carrie, however, doesn't really understand what's happened to her and interprets things as a child would, which somehow makes the whole thing even worse.
