Of course the punisher would cry at the new star wars. I mean, in a perfect universe he would have taken his alive kids to it and they would have enjoyed it and it would have been a wonderful time with his family.

I was always surprised that one of the places the Exiles never went to "fix" was a universe where Frank Castle was happy and had an intact family.

Hold on a second, let's continue the Stardust conversation from last page. Until now, whenever I read a Stardust strip, I was operating under the assumption that "ha ha, funny, it's a nice parody of old-style superhero comics." You're seriously telling me Stardust was 100% written, drawn and published absolutely and honestly unironically?

Stardust the Super Wizard was originally published in 1939, so yes, he was an 100% real and unironic swing at the new superhero genre.

WickedHate posted:In the eighties, Marvel put out a charity benifit comic called Heroes for Hope. Unfortunately, the money it made was rejected on the basis that the comic was tramendously sexist and racist. I wonder how that could be? Claremont only wrote the first two pages of the book, which changed creative teams completely every two pages. It had Stephen King and Bernie Wrightson on two pages, and Harlan Ellison with Gene Colan, I think, later on. I don't know who wrote those two pages, but it wasn't Claremont.

Wanderer posted:Claremont only wrote the first two pages of the book, which changed creative teams completely every two pages. It had Stephen King and Bernie Wrightson on two pages, and Harlan Ellison with Gene Colan, I think, later on. Wikipedia thinks it was. Claremont, Brian Bolland, and P. Craig Russell depict Storm confronted by a carnival ringmaster, who traps her in a house of mirrors. She is shown various images of her possible self, each one more distorted than the last. Ororo gets drawn into the crazy carnival games, and in the first concrete expression of the story's theme, she realizes that it is wrong to waste food. Having defeated the psychic attacker by feeding illusory cream pies to illusory people, Storm returns to her teammates for discussion of what has transpired. Huh, looks like George R.R. Martin wrote a couple of pages. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heroes_for_Hope#Contributors Second edit: Jim Shooter says the Oxfam America people were idiots.  http://jimshooter.com/2011/09/heroes-for-hope-and-why-i-dont-like.html/ Last edit, I promise: Just wanted to add the list of contributors.

Yeah, I actually have a copy, and I'm sitting next to my longboxes for once. I remembered that Stan Lee had been involved, but I hadn't remembered that he'd written the introduction. I'd thought it was Claremont. I was wrong. I wish they'd numbered the pages. (Also, the Ellison/Corben pages are creepy as hell to this day.)

The complaints about the Claremont pages are perhaps exaggerated, but not unfairly so. The rest, though, if Shooter's even half-accurate in how he reports it? Yeesh!

I know I'm miles behind everyone in comic news so this probably is already known by everyone, but Judge Dredd- Cursed Earth Uncensored drops next week! https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1781...arth+uncensored Can't wait to finally read the bitter war between The Burger King and Ronald McDonald.

I love when he's Charlie Brown with the football about it, when he's realized he's monologued just a bit too long and goes "I know you're gone, so I'm not gonna turn around and give you the satisfaction". And then he does anyways.
