I think they shouldn't do World War Hulk because every time Marvel tries to include some big real world element (a pandemic, a conflict with Russia, perhaps a world war) it ends up happening in the real world and they have to chop up the plot of the thing post facto in a way that makes the final product worse. We're close enough to WW3 right now that we don't need them spinning up the lathe of heaven.

Jackson Lanzing and Colin Kelly. They just wrapped up their way too short run on Captain America and now they're writing a Thunderbolts book about Bucky putting together a team to finally put the Red Skull down for good. They're also writing a really fun Guadians of the Galaxy book at the moment too.

I actually don't care much for Guardians but their Cap run ruled and Thunderbolts picks right up from it and also rules. They're also writing Outsiders at DC which is just Planetary so you're probably not wrong about Ellis being an influence.

Making Sharon the new Destroyer was a great move and she's awesome with that power set/identity.

By "the gods of the 20th century" she's talking about that group of weirdos in the last Cap run that masterminded every major upheaval in the world in the 1900's, right?

Also when I thought I had this month's comic purchases locked in, you do this... my poor wallet...

This is kind of interesting look back at the history of Punisher (2004). I have a soft spot in my heart for this movie and for Thomas Jane, a guy I always liked, but never seemed to reach his full potential. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHtGQGG0DQk Of note, missing out on a Walter Hill directed sequel seems like a super missed opportunity. Also, Having the budget slashed nearly in half did the end product no favors.

I liked Jane's more methodical revenge than straight up killing people* I hated Punisher: War Zone. Thought it was just so bad *Netflix Punisher ruled hard

Except for the whole thing where one of the actors was a sex creep (Doug Hutchison married a 16 year old girl when he was 51.)

Yeah bad people made it but it’s still my favorite. I don’t even like Lexi Alexander much because she’s such a loving nut on twitter. But I can’t not love watching Ray Stevenson destroying peoples faces. Or every scene with dominic west as jigsaw. A+ cinema

War Zone whips rear end and I don't know who this Doug guy is and also very nearly every celebrity is a shrieking grotesque with evil opinions and behaviors

I don't know if "actually it's fine because other people are just as bad" is a particularly novel or good take like you could have just said you liked the movie anyway without the weird justification

I'm sure the person is loving gross and terrible, but I have no idea who they are, and I really don't keep a running tally of every supporting cast member I've ever seen who should be in jail because it's just too many people is all I'm trying to get at. It just feels very tiresome to respond to people who are like "I enjoyed this old movie" with "oh well I didn't and did you know you shouldn't because there's a bad person in it somewhere  "

He also married that kid years after he was barely in War Zone so they might not have known he was a creep at the time. That being said Punisher War Zone loving sucked.

Yeah! You should feel bad for liking it for numerous reasons, that's just an extra one.

We saw the trailer for it before The Marvels and my wife was like "Why would they put a shirt on him? That's the only reason anyone would want to see this."

Jason Momoa will jump off the screen and punch you in 3D, unlike Ezra Miller who will show up to your screening and punch you in real life.

MH Knights posted:Has Stephen King ever done anything superhero related? Creepshow was definitely inspired by old horror comics but I can't think of King doing anything cape related. Nope. Not that I’m aware of and I read almost all of his output for years. The closest he’s come is adaptations of his prose works in comics format. He has spoken about liking superhero comics; Im pretty sure he called out Spider-man, Batman, and The Hulk as favorites. Edit: apparently he scripted part of a charity issue of the X-men in the 80’s for aid to Ethiopia? Old Kentucky Shark fucked around with this message at 02:55 on Dec 13, 2023 |

Man spends years in a coma, wakes up with the ability to see the future, and uses it to fight an evil Senator due to become an evil President. The SyFy adapation leant even more into the superhero genre too from what I remember.

Yeah I almost said TDZ but Johnny doesn’t actually do much superheroing. He just has the one guy he wants to stop. Danny actually has multiple baddies he has to dispatch. It’s been so long since I’ve read either. I remember I was depressed about Trump in 2016 so I threw myself into a few books to escape and picked TDZ and wouldn’t you know it that the bad guy in TDZ is Basically Trump.

I think it was the Onion, but one of the parody news sites did a great ongoing 'story' about how the ending of TDZ would play out in our modern political landscape.
