My take on Fisk: as M Night Shyamalan commented in Unbreakable, like most archenemies he's the opposite of the hero in a single crucial way. Cap and the Red Skull are of course on opposite ends of an ideological scale. Reed Richards has no place for magic in his life, Victor von Doom is an occultist. Charles Xavier wants to secure the future for mutants by cooperation, Magneto sees it as a competition that only one can win. In the case of Daredevil and Fisk, Matt Murdock is the Man Without Fear and Wilson Fisk fears everything. He is afraid of being around people, afraid of his own allies, afraid of rejection, afraid to show his emotions. His words stumble because he's afraid to speak. The only time we don't see Fisk afraid is when he's blindly enraged, but at least at the start of the series he's afraid of that - afraid that he is needlessly cruel like his father. And the only thing he's not afraid of is the only thing Matt is afraid of: that he may not be doing the right thing. One interesting thing I noticed. Vanessa sells Fisk the white-on-white painting at his request, but when Matt visits the gallery she recommends to him a painting that is red on red with hints of yellow - the exact colours in which Matt "sees" the world.

tsob posted:Stick and Matt beat up multiple ninjas when trying to stop Black Sky though didn't they? Matt did most of it on his own even. Nobu really gave Matt a run for his money, but he was probably reasonably high on the skill/authority ladder within the Hand and not every Hand member is going to be on his level. It's the Law of Conservation of Ninjitsu.

It's a traditional Japanese weapon, very effective at entanglement, and has nothing to do with ninjas. This has been a public service announcement by the Anachronistic Weaponry Information Bureau. We now return you to your scheduled thread.

I'm almost positive the whole story about her and the avengers was created along with the character and the alias comic. It was. Also Jessica Jones got her super powers from masturbating.

bobkatt013 posted:No not at all. I am pretty sure it involved the same truck that blinded matt and created the teenage mutant ninja turtles. Yes, but the only reason her dad crashed into the truck is because she was fighting with her kid brother because he took the piss out of her for jilling off over a picture of Flash Thompson. Also you're a giant loving sperglord with no sense of fun, though that should come as no surprise to anyone who has read this far in the thread.

Squidster posted:They should make The Punisher a fun-loving sociopath. A confident, happy man satisfied that his bullets make the world a better place. Let Matt have a monopoly on doubt and fear - contrast him with someone who 'has it all' by taking the easy way out every time. This is absolutely the last thing they should ever do, apart from Castle never doubting himself. If Frank Castle was happy he wouldn't be the Punisher.

AnonSpore posted:I thought the shitlosing was done after Frank saw criminals on the team and promptly ventilated them. That is correct, yes. Castle had been covering Cap's team from the shadows, and Cap allowed him to "officially" join the resistance after he brought a critically injured Spider-Man to the hideout and informed Cap of the Thunderbolts Initiative. This lasted about five minutes before Goldbug and Plunderer came to a meeting to offer their support and Castle killed them. Steve beat the poo poo out of Castle and only stopped because Castle refused to fight him. Also Daredevil was briefly in Civil War. He was captured by a SHIELD team and taken to the extradimensional prison. Tony Stark offered to put him in charge of the official New York superteam, and he told Tony to stick it.

Blazing Ownager posted:If I didn't see the name there, I almost thought that was Big Boss You're not the first to think that. Gazillion Entertainment gave away a Punisher skin based on that comic and everyone calls it Big Boss Punisher. The other reason that panel is good is because in the Punisher's first appearance he was trying to kill Spider-Man.

team overhead smash posted:I don't think it's that. If you've got the Preacher books, compare his art in the first few issues to that in the last few. There's a reason I picked the examples from the start of the run. I was going to say. I've been seeing Dillon art since he first began working for 2000AD in the early 1980s. He was considered to be the natural heir to Brian Bolland, having a similar style and a much faster work rate than Bolland (who was moving permanently out of strip art at the time). Two contemporary pages: But somewhere during the Preacher run he started dialling it in. Here's Tulip and Cassidy in Preacher 1: And issue 13: And issue 34: By the end it was full-on identikit modelling. He's still a really good artist, mind you - he's just drawing the same thing all the time.

Snak posted:As a big fan of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Forever Knight, I thought that Angel was garbage. I made it through 3 seasons and then quit because it just wasn't good. It's a show made out of the b-cast of Buffy and without any off the thematic material that made Buffy so good. It wasn't just the B-cast, it was every obnoxious and unlikeable character from Buffy. It was like making a spin-off from Lost starring those two "new survivors" who were so unpopular with fans that they were eventually buried alive, adding a couple of new characters then killing off the only one anyone actually liked.

Kilgrave in the comics once ordered everyone in a busy restaurant to stop breathing because the sound was disturbing him while he ate. I would say that matter of factness is more hosed up than a gibbering nut torturing people because he can.

mind the walrus posted:I believe we had a fair bit more than what we've got about Iron Fist, which is basically bupkiss. It's especially odd to me since Brubaker/Fraction's excellent "Immortal Iron Fist" series form a much more solid blueprint for what to do with the character than anything related to a solo Luke Cage story from the last 35 years. The difference being that Jessica Jones's entire development arc is contained in just over forty issues including The Pulse, while Iron Fist has forty years of stories to draw from.

It seems likely, they do try to keep a small distance between the cinematic and TV universes for now. The big exception will be Infinity War and its sequel, where basically everyone will be showing up across the two movies.
