That whole lineup was D-list. especially the black woman who was absolutely, totally not storm.

The worst was issue 3 or 4, when the cover was something like One of the Xmen 2099...WILL DIE!

Oh, you mean it was the girl with the useless stretchy arms? The one with worthless powers? who saw that coming?
I don't remember much, but that the stories were pretty random. Like the the ice chick, the vampire chick, and the green energy guy being chased by a crazy motorcycle cop through the desert.
 
Reed is also an asshole, then, and Tony and Thor and every superhero ever that could either build something or fix the world in any way. Who's your favorite hero?

Thor handles cosmic stuff and not the Earth absed stuff. he's a god, he's out having adventures and shit. the other two are just one bottle of jack Daniels and Sue fucking Namor and putting the video up on redtube away from being the world's worst nightmares..... but it hasn't happened yet. so they have a responsibility to stop adventuring and help humanity along. not lord it over either but share their gifts.

See what happens when GL corps get turned into the Hal show?

at least Hal is out there taking care of problems unlike that wet rag Rayner.

hmmm DP survives obscene amts of dmg ...so i think even though he gets out fought by Task ...he can take it man , you can hit his nerves all day, what does that even mean to DP if he's be rolled in the face by wolverine, shot to pieces, blown up, etc etc, whats some nerve dmg caused by a human gonna do to him? Task would definitely have to pull out some shit that isnt every day and he would feel it if it were used and ultimately didnt get the job done. Im sure he will try freezing DP next or trapping him. But DP isnt gonna just stand there he's highly trained too, and not just what he did , they programmed shit into his psyche too that fucked up weapon X training.

using pressure points on colossus, now THATS bad writing *what pressure points?* the man has his normal physiology changed , gonna vulcan neck pinch Ben Grimm next? Sad thing is these things have probably already happened.

And i blame the green lanterns cause they are losers.

get off the GL corps already. don't be mad just 'cause you're some loser who doesn't even have the willpower to give up cigarretes.

ugh, remember when Lobo was everywhere? worse than Deadpool, Batman, Wolverine fandom by a mile.
Mephisto is one of those characters that seems to do nothing BUT job
and fuck up the spider-books
and literally nothing else.
edit: I can't stop talking about Punisher today. This was during civil war, when heroes were taking sides against each other. Two D-list villains attempt to throw their two cents in...

It might be the wine talking, but I haven't laughed that hard in two weeks.

Lobo everywhere? nah. he had a lot of self contained mini-series and one regular series (and L.E.G.I.O.N) but he was the Galaxy's top bounty hunter so it would make sense that he would cross paths with the cosmic heroes of DC. but he only featured on a regular basis in two books, LEGION and his own. the rest were one-shots or three part minis.

edit: and I meant to comment on teh picture but then it's Mark Millar so..... Punisher is a vigilante but he isn't a fuckign maniac shooting villains in a room full of other heroes. that whole sequence was just...ugh.
 
Was the Krys the crystal making one? She was marginally more useful

emphasis on "marginal."

looks like storm, powers like iceman- but they're rocks, not ice. Pulls minerals "out of the air" to do so- who knew air was 90% rocks? I blame marvel comics for my abysmal science grades.

edit: I feel the urge to PM the mods to change my username. I would happily be Manmademan2099 if I could get away with saying "shock" all the time like a cuss word

I guess Metalhead is the bootleg Colossus. just like the russian he was the first to go down in any fight.

Yep. They turned him into some kind of monstrosity a few issues in though, because he was just too pretty.

"Skullfire" was the bootleg cyclops/havok who couldn't control his energy powers. Do you sense a theme here?

I don't know, seems pretty plausable to me. they've never bothered to tell us what Kryptonite is made out of so a bit of plutonium in it seems as good as anything.

The plutonium isn't the issue. it's the "TAR", as in "from a pack of newports" that's the questionable bit.

And the Vampire chick was Rogue.
A little off-topic, but totally inspired by this thread. Could the TMNT take Wolverine?

Cyborg Donny could.

Oh man, I remember shock. Feels kinda dumb in retrospect.

At any rate, I actually liked X-Men 2099 during the whole "on the road" sequence when Xian reverts to being crazy, Halloween Jack, etc. It was less enjoyable once they got to Halo City and turned really dumb right before cancellation.
 
We Booster Gold fans are classy as fuck.

ted and mike have a garbage fanbase too. the constant shipping between beetle and booster. i dont know of any popular character that doesnt have a garbage fanbase.

Morphine Somers was that fucking dude. (Basically Spider Jerusalem, many years early.)
 
Regeneration is the biggest BS deus ex machina in all of comic books, so you shouldn't bother saying Wolverine vs anyone

LOL A PIECE OF FLESH EXISTED HES OK

Stay hating, haters. Reed fanbase is OG while we laugh at all of your faves being thirsty over his wife.
 
That is why he and old school Juggy are some of my favorite villians. No pretenses, they just want that money and a cold beer.

It is why Thing is still one of the best heroes. He's simple and he works because of it. Like... There's been one idiotic Thing storyline that almost damaged the character, but otherwise, he's Thing. He's like your Uncle who buys you beer.
 
How you do guys stay current with comics lol. I find it hard as someone who's been out of the game for a bit.

Read the books that interest you. Don't try to keep up on everything. I find I just absorb some comic knowledge through Osmosis. For instance, I haven't read a single issue of Superior Spider-man, but have a decent idea of what is going on in the book.

reeds fanbase likes to sweep things under the rug. so clearly the worst of fanbase
 
Sue teases. She just plays those demi-gods and rich guys like T'challa so Reed can get that funding.

She's not Jean Grey who throws herself at everyone with mild interest. That's why so many want to bone her. They can't.

A lot of writers don't know how to write Reed. They end up writing him as a caricature of what they picture a scientific genius to be like without knowing a thing about science. In the rights hands, he's awesome. In the wrong hands, he's an uncaring, robotic, dick.

Waid and Hickman got the character. Millar, Bendis, and others didn't.

Also, outsmarting Reed Richards has become the "beating wolverine in a fight" of intellectual battles, which does't help matters.

actually i did have the willpower to give them up after like 8 years of smoking, cold turkey, must be hard for some, for me , was tuesday, so yeah do i get a lantern ring so that we can have 1 non fail Green Lantern on a planet of 7200? You know what forget it, ill just get some quantum bands , Quasars better anyway....yeah i said it.

I hate 4chan's /co/ board so much. That's all I'm going to say. I haven't posted in 4chan in years, but those scars will never heal.

For me, garbage is a measure of volume. Garbage Booster/BB fans are much easier to ignore because there are fewer fans of both characters in general. Garbage Batman/Superman/Wolverine/etc. fans are every fucking where and they never shut up.

The truly D list characters are definitely the best, but even they have their weirdos.

His daughter is best buds with his nemesis, the evil dictator.

Great parenting there, Reed.

Batfans in particular are THE. WORST.

But but but. I'm a fan of batman!

He's a arrogant prick with a (sometimes...) hearth of gold. With ''peak of human abilities'' (whatever that means... ask the weekly writter that got the BatBomb is his hands).

And supposedly the Greateast Detective Ever, even if sometimes it's so obvious it's cringe worthy.

Is he the best? No.

Doest he have good stories? YES. Gotham-Verse outside of the JLA are the best,

Elseworlds Batmans rock too.

Am I that Worst?
 
Getting back to Punisher though, the thing that makes him such a bastard to deal with is that he doesn't just fight superheroes all the damn time, he makes a point of exploiting the sillier things about the superheroics business and just humiliates his opponents in the process. Spider-Man, Cap, Daredevil, Wolverine, etc want nothing to do with him. Punisher even has good showings against or has beaten Black Widow, Deadpool, Kraven, Bullseye and US Agent.

Thanks for reminding everyone why Punisher is such a lame character in the grand scheme of things. The fact that he has been able to beat people like Spidey, Daredevil and Cap shows how unrealistic he is. I can' even bring myself to read his series anymore because his writers are such fanboys for him. They would have him take down Galactus if they could.

Agreed. There's nothing sillier than being invincible in a world of gods just because you have machine guns and a bad attitude.
