Rjoyadet Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 I am curious to see how the Buck Rogers re-boot will turn out. It appears to be a re-telling of the original series, but a lot of the old material was quite racist. I wonder if they will do some elaborate dodging or just get a lot of people angry.

Missy Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 Despite my feelings about Howard Chaykin, I do intend to check that book out. But yeah, it will be very interesting to see how he handles the Yellow Peril aspect of the original work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 Pretty much every update of Buck Rogers since the 1930s ignore the Yellow Peril stuff entirely and skip ahead to the space opera. This is really unusual in that it's not doing that. If it's more "America has been conquered by a foreign power which happens to be Asian in nature" and less "let's give that Yellow Devil what for" it MIGHT be doable, but it'll be tough.
