Punisher Max: Kingpin enters the way back machine and ends up in Vietnam to see the tipping point for Frank Castle. The second tale finds Castle a little older and a lot crustier, but he still gets sandbagged by his old friend Micro Not to be out done, the last story arc has Castle going after Irish surprise mobsters, who are looking Punisher Max: Kingpin the treasure of a dead Irish mob boss. For sheer mayhem, this one pushes the envelope a wee bit more… …with a little bit of character analysis… …and not Punisher Max: Kingpin little Punisher Max: Kingpin, as Ennis explores what makes Frank tick. Get it? Ennis does The Punisher like nobody else and brings to it a visceral energy that others have often imitated and never achieved. View all 23 comments.

I've always been fascinated by the character of Punisher Max: Kingpin Punisher. Have you ever been frustrated when the more popular heroes keep capturing the bad guys over and over even though they must know they will escape again and hurt more innocent people? Sometimes wonder why they don't stop them in a way that they can't hurt anyone else? Well, the Punisher is the hero for you! I've been I've always been fascinated by the character of The Punisher. I've been wanting to read good Punisher stories before the Marvel series premieres this month, and this Garth Ennis run with the character is one of the most well-received. First, Ennis opens with Bornthe tragic and haunting miniseries that gives us a peek at Frank's final Vietnam days, showing us that there might've been something within Frank already, even before the Mob killed his family; demons in his nature that were simply simply let loose after personal tragedy. It's a near masterpiece. In the next two stories in this first volume, Ennis does a great Punisher Max: Kingpin here at resetting the Punisher world. He focuses more on the Punisher as a symbol and legend. Frank Castle has been punishing for over 20 years and has built up a bit of a reputation, and whether it's dealing with a CIA conspiracy or Irish gangs in Hell's Kitchen, we see Frank Castle mostly through the supporting characters' eyes. Jan 20, Sud rated it it was amazing Shelves: comics. The Punisher Complete collection is a must read for any Punisher Max: Kingpin fan. It is a collection of the delightfully vulgar and violent Garth Ennis run on the Punisher. The first story is the superlative "Born". It tells the tale of Capt. It is dark, violent and grim. It is one of the finest "pre-origin" Punisher Max: Kingpin tales out there. We see the darkness and the violence that is Frank Castle.

It is obvious why he manifests as the psychopathic killer that is the bane of the criminal community. Punisher Max: Kingpin of the best Punisher tales around. The second arc is called "In the Beginning". It Punisher Max: Kingpin a crazy story filled with crazy Mafia Punisher Max: Kingpin, a return of Microchip, rogue CIA andof course, the Punisher himself. It is Ennis' trademark blend of over the top violence, vulgar prose and twisted humor. It works very well for this Punisher story. The Punisher takes down a Mafia birthday party and slaughters the heads of some of the families present. This causes an "outsider" to be brought in Punisher Max: Kingpin deal with the Punisher-except this solution may well Punisher Max: Kingpin worse than the problem. Equal parts violent, vulgar and darkly humorous this is trademark Ennis and it works superbly for the Punisher tale he tells. The Third arc is "Kitchen Irish". This time the same mix of previously mentioned elements combine into a tale about Punisher Max: Kingpin British operatives working with Frank to bring to justice some IRA terrorists that set off a bomb Punisher Max: Kingpin Hells Kitchen. A really interesting and dark tale that works well with the addition of the British operatives working next to Frank. All three story arcs are Punisher Max: Kingpin at the peak of his Punisher writing skills. I would highly recommend this to any Punisher fan. Goood artwork, darkly funny stories and a great deal of violence truly make the Punisher shine. View all 5 comments. Mar 02, Tristan rated Punisher Max: Kingpin really liked it. Needless to say, I was as merry as a pig in shit when Marvel Punisher Max: Kingpin it was going to reprint the whole thing in affordable softcover collections. To me, it is still the most potent version Punisher Max: Kingpin Frank Castle aka The Punisher ever devised. Punisher Max: Kingpin, from the very beginning after the origin story "Born"did one thing absolutely right with this run. Here, Castle is a Vietnam vet in his fifties, still operating in modern New York, and hard as nails after decades of wreaking violent retribution on anyone he deems deserving of it. See, in order for the character to be kept young and to them, popularMarvel editorial had a rather annoying habit of "updating" the war Castle was involved in. Completely wrong choice. Vietnam is very distinct in its feel and impact. Castle's involvement with it is absolutely key to his psychology. Adding to that, Ennis greatly expanded the world of Frank Castle. Punisher Max: Kingpin first 6 issues "In the Beginning" is basically a sort of send-off for the opponents Castle had to deal with on a regular basis: the Italian mob. After that story arc, Castle encounters warring Irish factions, goes abroad on a special mission for Fury to thwart a corrupt Russian general, and takes an East-European human trafficking ring to task in what is probably the finest story arc, "The Slavers"among many others.

Kitten - Recommendations for New Owners We would like to congratulate you on the acquisition of your new kitten. Owning a cat can be an extremely rewarding experience, but it is also a large responsibility for many years. We hope this handout will give you the information needed to make some good decisions regarding your kitten. First let us say that we are grateful that you have chosen our hospital to help with your kitten's health care. If you have questions concerning any subject related to your kitten's health, please feel free to call our hospital. Our veterinarians and staff will be happy to assist you. How should I introduce my kitten to its new environment? A cat is naturally inclined to investigate its new surroundings. You should initially limit the kitten's area of exploration so that you can closely supervise its actions. After confining the kitten to one room for the first few days, you should slowly allow access to other areas of the home. How should I introduce my new kitten to my other cat? Most kittens will receive a hostile reception from other household pets, especially another cat. "The existing cat must not feel that it is necessary to compete for food or attention." The other cat usually sees no need for a kitten in the household and these feelings are reinforced if it perceives that special attention is being shown to the kitten.

    Recycling the Other: the Role of Nostalgia in Superhero Comics’ Orientalism Nao Tomabechi

    Recycling the Other: The Role of Nostalgia in Superhero Comics’ Orientalism Nao Tomabechi Abstract Whiteness has been one of the core ideals in American mainstream superhero comics, but in recent years, with demands for diversity increasing, more than ever, racial minorities have leading roles in superhero comics. However, the struggle for Asians in the superhero genre is not entirely gone. The number of appearances may have increased, but stereotypes do persist. Japanese characters in superhero comics, for instance, whether they are heroes or villains, are still forced to display their Otherness, even in recent works. In this paper, by using Wolverine’s adventures set in Japan and the Japanese superhero Katana from DC Comics as examples, I argue that Asians in contemporary superhero comics are still contained within the grasps of Orientalism, and that nostalgia plays a significant role in that containment. Keywords: Orientalism, nostalgia, racism, continuity, diversity Introduction As many scholars and fans have already pointed out, whiteness has been one of the core ideals in American mainstream superhero comics.1 From DC Comics’ Superman and Batman to Marvel’s Captain America and Iron Man, the most famous and popular superheroes, as well as supervillains, have always been predominantly white. In recent years however, with increasing demands for diversity, this focus on whiteness has been highly questioned and criticized. Consequently, more than ever, racial minorities have leading roles in superhero comics. Miles Morales, the Spider-Man of Marvel’s Ultimate Universe, is a mixed-race teenager, and the African Black Panther is now extremely popular after the successful film released in 2018.

The purpose of this research is to adapt the approaches used by prominent and influential writers and artists in the American superhero/action comic-book field to create an engaging Australian hero comic book. Further, the aim of this thesis is to bridge the gap between the lack of academic writing on the professional practice of the Australian comic industry. In order to achieve this, I explored and learned the methods these prominent and professional US writers and artists use. Compared to the American industry, the creating of comic books in Australia has rarely been documented, particularly in a formal capacity or from a contemporary perspective. The process I used was to navigate through the research and studio practice from the perspective of a solo artist with an interest to learn, and to develop into an artist with a firmer understanding of not only the medium being engaged, but the context in which the medium is being created.

  • Loki Production Brief

    Loki Production Brief

    PRODUCTION BRIEF “I am Loki, and I am burdened with glorious purpose.” —Loki arvel Studios’ “Loki,” an original live-action series created exclusively for Disney+, features the mercurial God of Mischief as he steps out of his brother’s shadow. The series, described as a crime-thriller meets epic-adventure, takes place after the events Mof “Avengers: Endgame.” “‘Loki’ is intriguingly different with a bold creative swing,” says Kevin Feige, President, Marvel Studios and Chief Creative Officer, Marvel. “This series breaks new ground for the Marvel Cinematic Universe before it, and lays the groundwork for things to come.” The starting point of the series is the moment in “Avengers: Endgame” when the 2012 Loki takes the Tesseract—from there Loki lands in the hands of the Time Variance Authority (TVA), which is outside of the timeline, concurrent to the current day Marvel Cinematic Universe. In his cross-timeline journey, Loki finds himself a fish out of water as he tries to navigate—and manipulate—his way through the bureaucratic nightmare that is the Time Variance Authority and its by-the-numbers mentality. This is Loki as you have never seen him. Stripped of his self- proclaimed majesty but with his ego still intact, Loki faces consequences he never thought could happen to such a supreme being as himself. In that, there is a lot of humor as he is taken down a few pegs and struggles to find his footing in the unforgiving bureaucracy of the Time Variance Authority. As the series progresses, we see different sides of Loki as he is drawn into helping to solve a serious crime with an agent 1 of the TVA, Mobius, who needs his “unique Loki perspective” to locate the culprits and mend the timeline.
