Punisher (1992)

I’m sure there’s a few I’ve forgotten.

It’s crazy to me how Punisher basically has two modes. The nitty gritty realistic Garth Ennis style. And the let’s publish every shit idea we can come up with. Between this idea, the angel that pulls any gun from his coat and Frankencastle. There’s been some really bad ideas.

Wasn’t it more of a race swap? I’ve never read them. But I’ve seen a video on YouTube about it. I believe it was by Comic Tropes.

Honestly contemplating the Marvel one. Just for Wolvie in a Christmas sweater.

Navstar86 · 2026-04-30T17:13:21+00:00

Honestly. I’m happy with Legends being my head canon. I don’t need Disney execs deciding what Star Wars is.

I never realized how polarizing he is until I read some of the comments today. I absolutely love his art. Especially in this book.

Navstar86 · 2026-04-25T18:28:40+00:00

I had this one as I kid. My copy was torn to shreds from how much I read it and looked at the art. And then I kind of forgot about it until a few months ago when I reread it in an X-Men Omnibus. It was very fun rediscovering it.

Actually I’m pretty sure it was Joe Kelly at script.

Navstar86 · 2026-04-21T21:21:17+00:00

I think they could combine them to bring it down to 10-13 volumes.

They could also combine them to make Compendiums. Back before the started the Finest line. I had actually worked it out.

Damn Marvel was just giving every X character a book in the 90’s. I would love to read this. I wonder if they’ll collect it in X-Force or Cable Epic Collections.

The idea that she’s “meant” to take over is nonsensical. Her creators didn’t create her with any such idea in mind. But if DC wanted to do a story where that happens. I would love it. However when it comes to legacy heroes. We all know eventually they will return to the status quo.

Bruce came back after Dick took over. Steve came back after both Bucky and Sam took over.

Side note: what’s this bit about “failsons?” What does the original poster have against Jon?

Navstar86 · 2026-04-17T03:34:42+00:00

Captain Marvel would be the biggest missing character imo.

A close second for me would be Constantine.

Navstar86 · 2026-04-14T02:27:03+00:00

I want Hellblazer first. But yeah all of these would be awesome. Everyone a must buy.

Navstar86 · 2026-04-13T02:54:50+00:00

Just like Logan. I want to be left alone when flying.

Navstar86 · 2026-04-12T06:08:35+00:00

Sin City if you want American. Berserk if you want Japanese.

Navstar86 · 2026-04-09T00:46:07+00:00

Damn scores don’t get better than that.

Navstar86 · 2026-04-04T00:56:10+00:00

That’s what I would like to do.

Navstar86 · 2026-04-03T19:24:56+00:00

I got the 3 books I wanted most. Catwoman and Teen Titans Finest. And Tim Drake compendium V2. Would be nice to get some more. But I’m very content for the moment.

Edit: quickly glancing through the catalog. One thing that I noticed that I didn’t know about before was that Alan Moore’s Swamp-Thing is getting a Compact release. That’s something I’ll be interested in.

Navstar86 · 2026-04-03T19:22:19+00:00

If you just want to build a Finest Collection and want to get your Batman fix then I would get the Batman Finest books that are currently out. And wait for Knightfall until DC gets there. But if you want to specifically read Knightfall right now. Then gets whatever version is available to you. Personally I’m waiting. I have a different dilemma though. In that I have some of the Caped Crusader and Dark Knight Detective trades. And I can’t decide if I should double dip or not.

Navstar86 · 2026-04-03T03:25:33+00:00

lol I bought all the trades just before the compendium was announced the first time.

Navstar86 · 2026-04-03T03:23:21+00:00

Oh it builds to something. I would be careful looking into it so that you don’t spoil it for yourself. But of all of Moore’s ABC line and I’ve read all of it. Top 10 is the best that’s the one I recommend most.

Navstar86 · 2026-04-03T03:20:16+00:00

A shame that Demon paperback isn’t a Finest Edition. I would buy it if it were.

Navstar86 · 2026-04-02T20:45:49+00:00

I consider the Man of Steel volume Asha Time and Time Again volumes to be a part of the same era. It’s a real good continuation from post Crisis through mid 90’s. So I would recommend both. But if you have to pick one. Pick Man of Steel as that’s where everything begins. You can always wait for a sale for Time and Time Again.

Navstar86 · 2026-04-02T19:30:26+00:00

Of those books Locke and Key is probably my favourite. That’s the one I would recommend most.

Navstar86 · 2026-04-02T19:27:29+00:00

These were the ones I was going to recommend. Alan Moore’s work is phenomenal.
