CULTURE: That Which Does Not Kill Us Makes Us Stranger

On his CulturePulp blog, comics artist Mike Russell reveals "The Not-So-Secret History of 'Aeon Flux'." The strip provides the backstory on "Aeon Flux" for those who don't already know it, from her early days on MTV to her new incarnation in the form of Charlize Theron. The comic serves to lament the loss of "Aeon Flux"'s original weirdness wherein Flux's unobserved state was a fog of possibilities.

Regardless of how the movie turned out, the really good news is that it inspired MTV Home Entertainment to release Aeon Flux: The Complete Animated Collection -- a three-disc DVD set containing all the cartoons, remastered, with commentaries and documentaries. This is an utterly unique, deeply personal and occasionally aggravating animation achievement -- reveling in narrative and visual puzzles, circular structures, archetypes, icons, metaphors, philosophy, bizarre tangents and drug references -- and I seriously doubt well ever see its like on mainstream television (much less MTV) ever again.

If your memory of the MTV series was inexplicably altered, or you enter the theater with a very open mind, the film will be fun and entertaining. The cgi, set design, and cinematography are superb. The story has enough thought so that it does not hurt to watch it. Just consider it as some completely different incarnation of AF, or add some chemicals to the popcorn, and you will be pleased. If you take a date you will get laid, and the original never promised that.

My fav episode was when Aeon allowed for her own cloning, had an inferred sex scene with herself, swaped herself out with her clone to live out her secret desire to be Trevors S&M sex slave under the guise of operative spying and, in the end, you are never quite sure which one gets killed. That's mind expanding television...in a very freudian ID sort of way.

Now...I could handle Charlize Theron in THAT episode...

Yeah...but will it involve leather and electrodes...?

OH. My. God. I just saw that one the other day and I had completely forgotten how bizarre it was.
