I don't want to watch what I already read, either, but for a different reason. I thought the comic was crap. Vaughan tries really hard to sound "cool" with his mundane dialogue, but fails miserably. I even got annoyed with his writing when I tried out Saga, back when that was a hot title.
So you found the angry conservative females with AKs in the comic to be inspiring, in comparison? That crap was cheesy and so in-your-face it was laughable.....I really don't see much of a change, in that aspect, with the TV show, except it's more updated and I haven't rolled my eyes (Whereas when I had the misfortune of reading the comic, I rolled my eyes so many times I lost count).
