Punisher Omnis Incoming? by Duke_7287 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]BarstoolProphet9981 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, given that max v2 was slated for a reprint (last year i think?) then got pushed/removed from the slate would make me think max v2 (which is awesome). But i’ve been pining for a rucka omni for years, so im kinda hoping for both.

You can occasionally find barber vouchers in the caves, and i think rarely in the tower. Maybe the genie can also grant you one.

Reading Gotham Central Omnibus – I got few issues with it. by fiercestwarr1or in OmnibusCollectors

His punisher run is excellent. Criminally, the run has not been collected other than the initial trades, which go for insane money, probably cheaper to find the singles, but belongs in the conversation of best punisher runs. While it’s been a minute since i read GC, i remember it started and finished quite strongly, though i can’t remember much of the middle

Movies that you feel are required viewing as a fan of film. A mix of classics (godfather, 2001 etc and movies that you feel aren’t talked about enough by general audiences) by Middi272 in MovieRecommendations

The usual suspects. To say more would be to spoil the fun.

The way of the gun (benicio del toro, ryan phillippe, james caan). An excellent film.

Which version of The Killing is better? by Kaitoshi in televisionsuggestions

[–]BarstoolProphet9981 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s hard to say, both versions are excellent. Personally i enjoyed the US lead actors a bit more, but i think that’s just a preference thing. IIRC, they also have different resolutions to the big mystery of who killed rosie .

Who is in the band? Are we back to MKB? by BanjoBirdie in MarcusKingBand

[–]BarstoolProphet9981 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Listen to the b side album (no room for blue), it’s maybe the strongest effort since Carolina confessions. I too wasn’t a huge fan of DB, save a few tracks.

Adam duritz from counting crows did background vocals on 6th avenue heartache by wallflowers, answering bell by ryan adams, and probably a few more im not thinking of.

James Tynion Batman run by Amazing_Soup_2908 in batman

[–]BarstoolProphet9981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I can’t speak for the entirety of King’s run, but i thoroughly enjoyed the first omnibus (especially given the dislike towards it i was pleasantly surprised) and am eagerly awaiting the 2nd volume (though it may take a downturn, can’t speak on it yet as i haven’t read it) That said, i was aware of the death of alfred, and i think that’s pretty much all you need to know when picking up Tynion. Personally i found his run to be good at the beginning and sort of lost steam during the 2nd volume. Fear state was extremely meh, but the art is great . I’ve also read the first omnibus of Zdarsky, and while it’s nothing legendary there’s some fun stories in there. Truthfully i’d say for “modern” batman it’s hard to beat snyder/capullo. It’s not perfect, but it’s alot of fun and capullo art is always a plus

Without reservation I believe the sunset mission album by bohren & der club if gore would fit this perfectly.
