#AEON FLUX ANIME COSPLAY SERIES#

Æon Flux is therefore notable as the first American adult animated series to be a drama rather than a comedy. Chung intended the cartoon to be a reaction to heroic Hollywood action films, not as a spoof, but rather as a way to make the audience wonder about the wider context of these action heroes and evoke thought.

Peter Chung, the creator, says the main character's name 'started out just being the name of the cartoon and then eventually it stuck, so that's her name.' The character Æon Flux was not meant to be part of the series, but MTV pushed to keep her in it, despite Æon dying at the end of the first batch of shorts. Some authors consider the title a reference to the Gnostic notion of an Aeon, noting the influence in the use of a demiurge in one episode, and that the relationship between the main characters parallels the Valentinian notion of a syzygy.

Japhet Asher as Clavius (Director's Cut).

Themes of tragic/forbidden love run throughout the series as Trevor has everything but what he truly wants, Æon and Æon can accomplish anything she wants except settling down with Trevor.

The names of their respective characters reflect this: Flux, as the self-directed agent from Monica, and Goodchild, as the self-appointed leader of Bregna. While Monica represents a dynamic nihilistic, anarchist society where rules do not exist, Bregna embodies a centralized, scientifically planned Orwellian police state. The two cities engage in a futile, never-ending war for ideological supremacy. Her mission is to infiltrate and destroy the strongholds of the city of Bregna / ˈ b r ɛ n j ə/, which is led by her sworn enemy, and sometimes lover, Trevor Goodchild - the technocratic dictator of Bregna, whose citizens are called Breens. The title character is a tall, sexy, scantily clad dominatrix secret agent from the city of Monica - skilled in espionage, assassination and acrobatics. The setting comprises a bizarre dystopia populated by mutant creatures, clones, and robots, set within the separated border-wall cities of Monica and Bregna. Æon Flux is set in a surreal German Expressionist-style futuristic universe.

Each episode's plot has elements of social science fiction, biopunk, allegory, dystopian fiction, spy fiction, psychological drama, postmodern visual, psychedelic imagery and Gnostic symbolism.

Æon Flux was created by American animator Peter Chung. In 1995, a season of ten half-hour episodes aired as a stand-alone series.
