Back at it again with comic books after taking a break for a bit. Pic related are my bookmarks on batcave.

Really what’s grabbed me is uncanny x-men by chris claremont, even if the art is poo poo compared to jim lee’s x-men and todd mcfarlane’s spider-man.

    I always liked those old Punisher comics because they follow one of three plot lines

    1. This is Tony Tortelli, hitman for the mafia and tonight the Punisher is going to shoot him dead
    2. An old war buddy of Frank shows up and he has a problem that only guns will solve
    3. Did you ever see The Substitute? Gymkata? American Ninja? Because this is an original story that in no way resembles those if you have

    The original Transformers comics from the 80s/90s finally got reprinted recently in a big softcover phonebook and it uses the old school type of paper too so big nostalgia trip since that’s one of 2 titles I actually read in the mid 90s (the other being amazing spider-man). The comic books were way more gritty and pessimistic than the animated series, every character got put through a hard time.
