Tieri is someone who has a ton of writing credits to his name and absolutely none of it is good or bad enough to be memorable. He's just kinda there.

he wrote that one wolverine/punisher crossover that was just one big setup to a punchline about the punisher being gay, that's pretty memorable for the wrong reasons

a crossover he only wrote because garth ennis had wolverine in his punisher comic and made fun of him for being all snikt bub

He's written some memorably bad stuff-- I think he's responsible for every appearance of the execrable and very early 2000s badguy Mr. X, up until a few semi-memorable Thunderbolts appearances around the time of Siege.

While I know it isn't true I like the rumor that Tieri was Joe Q's pizza guy and they got to be such good friends that Joe gave him a job.

Oh wait, I remember the other memorable/'memorable' Frank Tieri comic!

This was an 'answer' comic to an issue of Ennis/McCrea's Punisher (the Marvel Knights borderline comedy Ennis Punisher, not the serious Punisher MAX series) that featured essentially a caricature of Wolverine as a feral drunk bumbler who injected "Snikt" into every conversation and eventually gets run over with a steamroller if the entire cartoonish theme was not obvious enough.

But you see, Tieri was writing Wolverine at the time and needed to show THE OTHER SIDE of things.

quote:

Punisher starts at Logan’s last sentence. Wolverine checks the bag, finding a magazine of homosexual pornography. Wolverine laughs and tells Punisher “You were makin’ fun a’ me fer wearin’ yellow tights? Hmm… makes sense, now that I think about it… You’re single, neat, very organized…” Punisher replies with a choked “…suspects… always looking for suspects…” Wolverine throws the magazine on the barely conscious Punisher and walks away.

“Uh-huh… you keep tellin’ yerself that, sport.”

“See ya around, Frankie.”
So yeah, perhaps the only (certainly the most recent) comics writer to actually resort to the "well uh.... YOU'RE GAY! LOL" comeback in a meta-feud.

I remember something he wrote!

It's basically my only association with Frank Tieri so it immediately surfaces whenever his name comes up, which is thankfully not very often.

90% sure this is the guy who got banned from Magic for life for organizing a harassment campaign that made a relatively big name cosplayer, who did a lot of publicity stuff for WotC, quit the game and the fandom forever,

That's him. Hambly had no association with ComicsGate I'm particularly aware of until he claimed to be 'attacked' at GenCon by a progressive game designer and Uncle Ethan raised 30K+ for him. All of which totally went into the legal fees for his lawsuit and not the new truck he bought soon after.

Hambly's a colossal dumbass who tweeted about the attack before reporting it to the police (the next day, I believe), has a story remarkably full of holes, printed up t-shirts about the entire incident and even held a 'fact-finding stream' on YouTube looking into his 'attacker.'

She said she's tired of press days for her movies being filled with older white guys when the audience for her movies isn't usually that. Nothing harmful at all. But the right wing psychos turned that in to "ALL WHITE MEN MUST DIE!" of course.

He's got a pretty bad case of fragile go, grown out of a divorce that went entirely against him. He's borderline inceldom some days.


But he talked a gun out of my hand and walked me back. So he gets a pass so long as he doesn't get too insane.

I'm in a "DC Positivity" group on FB with an excellent moderator, he boots anyone at first sight of CHUDness. I only remember the Halo thing because some dude shared it and it grew to several hundred comments of his ranting about identity politics before he got booted and it was deleted.
