I accidentally gave this book 3 stars but it should get a 5 all around.  Take the talent of Brubaker…

Shut your whore mouth indeed!

April 1, 2011 12:17 am @ShonenRafa77  Same here. I said HOLY SHIT.  Out loud!
March 21, 2011 11:45 pm I see alot to "I hate the Punisher" tone on this board.  The punisher is a template for anger. He is vengeance personified. You can throw all of your anger on him and he just soaks it up unloads his M2 into a bunch of goombas screaming at the top of his lungs. Rucka can take this template and make is sing.  I have loved the Punisher since the Grant/Zeck mini and I will alwasy have him on my pull.  Some of the top talents in the comic biz have had runs on the Punisher.  Franks return to the MU was a product or 80's Ronnie Raygun/Bernie Goetz acceptance of violence as a personal right. Castle lives on.  Name another character is the pantheon of the Big 2 that has no superpower/high intellegence and is considered a criminal but can carry two to three titles a month.
March 13, 2011 12:03 am @WilliamKScurryJr  Finally someone brings up the commodity aspect. No other publication has that kind of secondary market. Nobodys lining up to buy a Newsweek from two months ago. Right?!?!?!?

Anything is better than Nomad. Just didn't dig it.

March 3, 2011 1:27 am BTW.  I vote Josh lives but only if he does just one more Bill the Butcher "Woops a daisy". That shit cracked me up.
March 3, 2011 1:24 am Your first love is the one you remember definitely applies for mine.   Secret Wars.
You guys referenced it but it was truly the 1st company wide multiple crossover and mini-series event. It crossed through Amazing Spider-Man;[2] Avengers;[3] Captain America;[4] Hulk;[5] Iron Man;[6] The Thing;[7] Fantastic Four;[8] Marvel Team-Up;[9] Thor[10] and Uncanny X-MenThere are several significant developments in the series: villainesses Titania and Volcana are created;[13] the second Spider-Woman, Julia Carpenter, is introduced;[14] Spider-Man finds and wears the black costume for the first time, initially unaware that it is actually an alien symbiote;[15] (the symbiote would subsequently bond with journalist Eddie Brock, giving birth to the villain known as Venom);[16] Doctor Doom temporarily steals a portion of the Beyonder's power;[17] having fallen in love with the alien healer Zsaji (who sacrifices her life on Battleworld to save the heroes), mutant Colossus ends his romantic relationship with a heartbroken Kitty Pryde;[18]  Kitty herself meets a new companion in Lockheed who becomes a mainstay in the X-books for many years. The Thing chooses to remain behind on Battleworld and explores the galaxy for a year,[19] with the She-Hulk temporarily joining the Fantastic Four as his replacement.
These are ramifications.
Its spawned a toy line. Some truly great creators had a hand in its creation Mike Zeck and Jim Shooter.   I think that Secret Wars raised the Marvel awareness of a generation of young comic readers.
Therefore I vote to have Marvel Superhero Secret Wars be granted Granddaddy of them all status!
Who's with me? (Crisis was overly dramatic and depressing....but really good too..)
