Saw this earlier today on FB:

The Classic Cyberpunk Novel Altered Carbon Is Becoming A Netflix Series

Quote
Add another entry to the long list of amazing things Netflix is doing with their original programming. They’ve just picked up the rights to Altered Carbon, a 10-episode-series based on the brilliant award-winning 2002 novel of the same name by Richard Morgan.

REALLY looking forward to this!!

Love to hear about cyberpunk getting more mainstream stuff.  It's my favorite genre, I wanna see it keep growing!

Jeeze.  It would almost sound stupid until you realize we're talking about an immortal elf clown sword fighting a dragon ghost in a mall.

Excellent. I'll check it out.

I'm a bi fan of netflix Daredevil and Jessica Jones. Great streetlevel vibe with gangsters, a P.I. and superheroes adepts.

Street level nothing. Jessica Jones and Daredevil would probably be high level SR3 or SR4A Physical Adepts focused on melee AND unarmed in skills and powers.

Street level = low nuyen & lower gear availability afaik. Not less adept power at all.

Also depends on how you calibrate your expectations.

DD season 2 is now available btw and so far features the Punisher.

@AJ sorry for the threadjack
