Steampunk Anime - Part I

[Thespian80]

@CoryTheRaven hey thanks; after searching that comic title- I've found that's what I was thinking of.

[Thespian80]

I swear.. I could have sworn there was an anime actually called Steampunk, and I thought that's where the term started.

[CoryTheRaven]

@Thespian80 There was a comic called "Steampunk" by Chris Bachalo and Joe Kelly, but they got the name from K.W. Jeter and the genre as a whole. Maybe you're thinking of the movie "Steamboy"?

@Thespian80

There was a Manga and Anime called Steam City that existed before Steam Boy.

[CoryTheRaven]

@sageeagle You're thinking of Steam Detectives, which started publication in 1994, 10 years before Steamboy was released.

is Steam Punk related in any way to Desert Punk?

[MrOtakuNE]

@117Scraps perhaps if the desert suits ran on steampower or were make of brass or copper. i think punk in Desert Punk really just refers to kanta's personality.

[awonderland123]

@117Scraps I dont think so >.>

[JShawtyKim]

Bioshock is considered steampunk, no?

[CoryTheRaven]

@JShawtyKim Some people think so. The aesthetic in it is more Art Deco, but the setting is mid-20th century and it is a critique of Ayn Rand's theories. I wouldn't really consider that in the same vein.
