You are a fucking masochist when it comes to Legacy.

You could've put that $63 into savings and, with interest, you'd have about $63.05 now.

I know. I know.
It's a disease.
I have the same problem with Punisher: War Journal and Wolvergins.

Wolvergins #23 - Deadpool is pissing me off, well, at least the way Daniel Way is writing him is. The guy has always been unbalanced, but not a total psychotic retard that constantly talks to himself. In this issue his battle with Wolverine has been one of the few high points in recent months, but the book is still on the chopping block.

War Is Hell #1 (of 5) - Garth Ennis and Howard Chaykin's WWI story about an American fighter pilot who may not be what he seems. Good start and with the exception of a little gore, I'm not sure it was necessary to make it a MAX title (maybe Icon).

I dropped PWJ and Origins both. Origins started well, but has steadily skidded downhill since. The next arc is learning more about that retarded mohawk kid who thinks he's Logan's son. So I dropped it at the correct moment.

PWJ always sucked. It's suckitude is enhanced by the fact that an AWESOME Punisher title appears on the stand every month RIGHT NEXT TO IT...

Ghost Rider is getting up there, mostly becuase I've missed a few issues and didn't realize it for six months.

Good thing, I mistyped in my fit of upsettedness. :wink:

The "thing" better be fucking well done - so much so that I'm deeply affected by it. If "it" is left ambiguous I'll be pissed off. I have an affinity for this affected thing, and it better not be cheap. I don't want to be reading an entire Giant Sized comic waiting for something to happen, and then have it suck - especially since the book is half ruined for me at this point already.

I have a crush on that little Jew, too. :)

Daredevil #106 - basically the previous story's epilogue, but still well written.

All-Star Superman #10 - One of the series best issue. Still, not all that great though. A.S. Batman is still a lot better.

The Amazing Mark Bagley, sir. He's the base, to Frank Cho's lateness acid. Mix them together and you get a monthly book.
X-Men Legacy 209 - I just can't leave it alone. :cry:
Yeah, it's like watching train cars piling up. The engine derailed months ago, and yet we can't look away from the ongoing disaster...

Punisher War Journal #18 - Jigsaw part 1. This story is PWJ's final chance. Fraction has called it the "Ultimate" Jigsaw story. We'll see.

The Boys # 17 - Always good stuff from Ennis. As usual, it gets sexual. This time in a funny, yet extremely gross way (hint - a character earns his "red wings" and I ain't talkin' hockey). :shock:

I should start a thread called "What Diabolical could've done with all the money he blew on Punisher War Journal and Star Wars Legacy."
