Do Liefeld characters have dicks tho? Because their crotches are always really weirdly drawn. Like, there's way too much crotch going on but it's all very smooth and dome like with features only roughly defined by cross hatching. I always suspected they were all like Ken down there and that's where the anger comes from.

A crossover where all of the Image characters are angry about losing their dicks? That would never work.

Sometimes they have miniature black holes where their dicks should be.

Didn't Liefeld just recently put out a comic where his super cool, totally not Deadpool assassin got his dick stolen? I thought I remembered somebody in BSS talking about how crazy it was. Or is that just a misremembered fever dream.

Their clothes don't absorb it, though, so all three Cyclopes are feeling their pants shoved into their respective groins with the force to punch holes through mountains. :colbert:

Considering all his characters end up gritting teeth like they did get punched in the dick I assume they do have dicks.

Frank Castle: Red Son

During one of his stints in jail, Frank Castle undergoes a Damascene conversion while reading Das Kapital in the prison library, promptly swaps his skull emblem for a hammer and a sickle and sets out on a one-man revolution. No longer does the Punisher judge the law inefficient and ineffective - it is also bourgeois. And no longer are criminals his target - it's open season on the superheroes, for they are surely class traitors of the first division.

That's the point - Castle believes that superheroes who do not kill criminals, though well-intentioned, are essentially ineffective because they perpetuate an inefficient and often corrupt system, perhaps without even realising it. Marxist Punisher would not simply view the system as inept and thus something to be ignored - he would see it as malevolent, and thus something to be destroyed. By making themselves part of the system - even a remote part - superheroes are making themselves targets.

As he progressed, he would discover that the average citizen of NYC - the worker - actually supports and values the superheroes he's killing. He would thus conclude that working class people are "part of the problem" set out on this indiscriminate killing spree until he's finally stopped by Captain America. :v:

Wasn't the first part basically one of the vigilantes in Garth Ennis' Marvel Knights Punisher run? Bit less Communist though.

The true test of whether you like Ennis or not is to read Dangerous Habits and Hitman. Maybe Fury Max too. Then, awakened to his true potential, you can poo poo on the Boys from a truly enlightened perspective.

Hitman and his Hellblazer comics just feel like they're written by an entirely different person than say, the Boys, which is legit one of the worst comics I've ever read.

I went to the same school as Ennis. I sort of feel like I should have read at least one of his comics on that basis. But it's like the time I tried to watch the golf on the telly to show solidarity with Rory McIlroy; I'm just not into the golf, and I'm just not keen on the sort of thing Ennis usually writes about.

Two crossovers you wish you would have never imagined but but now wish to see

While the gang make a pit stop in Riverdale on their way to Burning Man Frank becomes unzipped and dissapears. Thinking that he will eventually wander his way back home the gang leave him there and continue on their way. However when they heed him to pull of a scheme three weeks later, they findthemselves returning to riverdale and recruit Archie and friends to help find him.

Trailer Park Boys/Hellblazer
When a demonic possession threatens Julian and Ricky's latest scheme they recruit an acquaintance of theirs from prison: John Constantine. Unfortunately Lahey and Randy threaten to make the situation worse. It doesn't end well of Corey and Trevor.

Give his hellblazer a try. The early stuff is a bit different then the usual Ennis stuff.

Has there been an X-Files/Ghostbusters crossover, yet?

*Mulder is rubbing a piece of paper on a notepad with a pencil*

"Why are you so interested in this case, Mulder? Who is Peter Bankman?"
"Bankman is the name he lives under, now, Scully. His ego is as such that he could have changed to it anything, but he couldn't resist teasing with something so similar to his own. No, this man's name, his real name, is Peter Venkman. Does that ring any bells?"
"Not particularly... From these photos, it looks like he's was just a garbage man. Did him and his pals find a crashed UFO in a dumpster?"
"Scully, back in the mid 80s these four men held court over the entire city of New York for a period of several weeks as several high-profile supernatural events occurred. The largest documented series of unexplained phenonemon in the largest city on the planet, complete with news footage of what can only be described as a giant-..."
"Wait, you're talking about the Marshmallow Man Hoax? Bankman was part of that?!"
"I'm not so certain it was a hoax..."
"Explain it to me, Mulder: If it wasn't a hoax, how do you rationally explain the sudden appearance and disappearance of a giant Stay-puft Marshmallow Man in a major city? If it were real, it would be on par with Godzilla and walking through Tokyo. Mulder, listen, this man and his associates are known con artists and hustlers, and whatever new game they're playing at now they want an audience."
"Whatever productions about to go on, I don't plan on sitting in the cheap seats..." *Mulder holds up the embossed street address from the sheet on the notepad* "...When I think I can use a backstage pass..."
