Steve Dillon makes me sick. His art is one of the worst in comics, how the fck does he have a job as a artist.

Kazenji
I mind it

Alpha Centauri
If it's not Ennis; not interested.

I'll agree with you there.

Jason Aaron's a great writer, I'm so glad he's started writing for Marvel because his work on Scalped is awesome. He fits a Punisher book personally, if you ask me.

Kazenji
He's also done a good run on Ghost Rider and started up a brand new Wolverine comic a very good one at that.

Yeah, but your opinions are all dumb, and thus irrelevant.

So we can go all day.

I agree, but how is that relevant?

I said if it's not Ennis on this book, I'm not interested. Someone then said he was garbage, you said he's overrated. Being garbage is different to being overrated.

Frank Miller, in general, is overrated. Is he garbage? Precisely.

Well if you want to make such a distinction between what you would consider to be garbage and what you would consider to be overrated, I'll happily oblige by placing Ennis in both categories, myself.

It's relevant because opinions of Ennis have been prevalent throughout the last few posts on this thread and there isn't "Is Garth Ennis Garbage or Overrated?" thread to post in smile

It was irrelevant because nobody was arguing about him being overrated.

You disagreed with me countering someone calling him garbage by saying "No, he's overrated.". Hence, irrelevant.

he just enjoys taking shots at me,because I disagree with him and find his arguements rather immature.



I agree my responses was quite relevent to what others were saying in this very thread.

Alson how is ennis not garbage? he the same man who thought a group of killer midgets cutting off peoples legs was a good and interesting plot story......when it was rather stupid and far from clever.

He also the same man who some how had Punisher subdue the hulk and had a view bombs take hulk out......he also the same dude who ignored DD super senses and wolverine and spiderman spidersenses through out the arc to the point they culd not locate punisher who was 30 feet away.......which is utter rediculousness. He also the same dude who ahd spiderman tricked by fake bombs, and had wolverien drink acid.......with out realizing it.

he not clever, his story tend to suck, there far from funnny thoguh he tries to make them so. he also tends to compeltely ignore powers individuals posses and has been quoted statingn he hates heros with powers. Dude not only bias, but he allows his bias to effect his stories. He tends to lack professionalism from what I have gathered from his work, and he hyped to reiddulous levels, most of his sotry arnt funny, nor clever even though he tries to make them so, he garbage compared to most writers and aron

stories will be far better and more clever then ennis ever were.

BE GONE MORTAL !!



Only thing that i've liked from Ennis so far is his run on Punisher Max and Marvel Knights i've seen his work on The Boys and preacher he just seems to think Over the top violence ad showing off naked superheroines and superheroines asking for blowjobs will sell a comic.

Holy terrible spelling and grammar, Batman. Don't sit there critiquing the man's intellect when you can barely string a coherent sentence together.

Anyway, I never said Ennis was good at writing everyone, did I? He obviously has shitty ideas of Hulk, Daredevil and others. The man isn't perfect and I never said he was, you fool.

I simply said that if it's not him writing Punisher MAX, which I feel he DID do amazingly, then I'm not interested.

If you can't keep up with what I'm saying, go to the kiddy table.

I never insulted the man's intellect, I simply dont think he clever. Grammar and spelling have zero to due with one's intellect.

Did I ever say you said he was perfect? Nope I did not. Again there no reason for your petty insults.

I dont agree I think he not very good at all, nor did he fallow the entire point of the max line which is to be more realistic which, it has failed to be over and over.

I know what you were saying, but my comment had nothing to do with you, it was my own thoughts on how bad ennis is and the reasons why I feel he so bad.


hypocrisy at it best, saying I need to "go to the kiddy table" when you the one acting the role of the child with all your pointless insults, which were not warranted or needed.

Battlehammer
AC you are still just as abrasive as you were in 2004, you ever think of changing you tactics and general demeanor to one of a less insulting and aggressive individual.

Alpha Centauri
You weren't even around in 2004. You came two years after.

If you can't spell, it doesn't look good for your intellect. I'll be honest.

I don't want my comics to be realistic. I don't buy comics for realism. The only unrealistic element was how he changed the characterisation of the people you mentioned. That was unrealistic based on their characters, not actual realism.

You don't think he's good, I think he did Punisher really well. The stories were excellent.

So, when the shoe is on the other foot, you want to complain?

You bore me and I don't suffer fools, so I'm afraid you get the sharp end of the honesty stick. If you can't understand what I'm saying, then don't get involved. We've interacted before and it's been established that you lie to cover up your own lack of knowledge.

And also he did get some of his ideas for the Punisher stories from things happening in the world today such as slavery and the sex trade which he used in 'The Slavers vol 8'.

Not an excuse. You obviously take the time to reply to me and others, continually, so why not just spell correctly? It isn't hard. It's also very courteous, especially considering this is a messageboard.

There's something wrong if, by a grown age, you cannot correctly spell words. That's just how it is. Although, this is all irrelevant.



I know. I was saying I don't care about realism.



I thought his Punisher stories were all good.

Good and bad are subjective. You cannot give proof that any story was bad, because it's up to the reader to decide.



If you know me as well as you claim (Which you don't), you'd know that it's what I'm known for outside of this forum. The fact that I jab people who deserve it doesn't negate the substance and quality of my arguments.



Obviously you don't understand what I've said because my posts have not at all been that way. They have had points, which you've ignored.



You didn't even know of them until I told you. You're a liar and you're a well known Wolverine fanboy. Proven here.

I didn't even bring it up, I was speaking generally. Obviously you have a guilty conscience.

-AC
edit


not worth it.


Back to the topic, Aron will do a good job, he been doing real well in his current weapon x run and I think he can motain his momentum and come out with a really good punisher run.

on a side note I don't really get the point of the max line, and it not 616 cannon correct?

*groan* In your own way you're almost as bad as him. roll eyes (sarcastic)

Anyway I cant really speak for Aaron but get tired with all the Einnis worship.

Won't be the same without Ennis, and Steve Dillon produces some of the worst art I've ever seen in a comic. No idea why he's employed by Marvel.

Probably won't read it.

I think Steve can grow on you...but I know what you mean. Im feeling Punisher Dark Reign to much bother with this really.

He writes some of the best Punisher stuff I've ever read. I find him funny at times, when he's writing Barracuda for example. But it's not a comedy he's writing. His stories can be clever, a lot of thought is put into the Punisher Max stories, they are all put together really well, but again what has clever got to do with being a good writer? He's writing comics, not science articles.

Lack professionalism? What would you (or any of us for that matter) no about professionalism in comics? We don't agree with the plot, doesn't make him "unprofessional."

I disagree with you, having a bunch of killer midgets cutting off peoples legs, does not seem like good writing to me. When one trying to be funny they should be clever about it, which he tends to fail at in my opinion.



Yes unprofessionial like say "I hate super powered hero's" and then making any super powered hero who shows up in his comic act like complete tools and out of character.

His style does grow on you, if you want to read Ennis-type violent black comedy. I liked his deadpan style of violence in the last Deadpool-Wolverine clash.

I wonder if Punisher should just stay in the MAX format, and not have a series in Marvel Knights (but I guess that's one younger people can read.)

Black Adam
I dropped the punisher two issues after ennis left, but i've liked everything i've read from Aaron so I guess I'll give it a shot.




as for ennis, I enjoy his war stories. He can get carried away when trying to make fun of capes, to the point that there's nothing left in the book that even resembles the past work of his that I've enjoyed...


But I really ****ing like his war stories.

Kazenji
Its been good so far

and i've read Aaron got plans to use Bullseye.

Kazenji
Preview Punisher Max #3

http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=preview&id=4182&disp=table

StiltmanFTW
Aaron didn't disappoint.

Kazenji
So Bullseye's gonna be in the next story arc

they've gone with a look like what they had him as in the Daredevil movie.

All I've seen from issue 6 was some preview art stick out tongue

This Bullseye will be different from the one we know from 616. A few surprises awaiting.

BTW, Lester was great in DA #15.

#6 preview

StiltmanFTW
Great issue smile

Kazenji
Don't know what the reviewer was expecting over at comic book rescources he he gave it 2 and half stars.

Kazenji
Wonder what the deal is with this series its stopped at #9.

Kazenji
Punisher Max resumes Feburary.

Impediment
Major bump.

Jason Aaron's self contained PunisherMAX 22 issue story arc is, without a single shred of doubt, one of the most deplorably violent, sadistic, and most intelligent stories I have ever read.

Add the breathtakingly beautiful artwork of Steve Dillon, an you have a masterpiece at your hands.

This is what both Punisher movies should have been like.

Also, how can anyone NOT like Steve Dillon's art work?

Kazenji
I liked how with Aaron's Punisher Max how he put characters from the 616 universe and gave them a Max Makeover.
