cubby2112 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 If you're really looking for superhero deconstruction within a superhero universe, try to track down Marvelman/Miracleman (out-of-print, but Marvel thinks they purchased the rights. As soon as they get all the copyright claims cleared up, they'll immediately reprint). You hear a lot about DKR and Watchmen, but MM is what really broke things open. (Also, Animal Man is a hell of a read. Meta-everything.) For modern stuff being published as we speak, Ellis is finishing up his "superhero" trilogy (Black Summer, No Hero) with Supergod in a few months. And Waid is having fun being off the leash with Irredeemable. Kick Ass has been a fun deconstructsploitation, to completely make up a word. Thanks for the suggestions. I will have to check those out. I like the new word, BTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CollegeB Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Always been a fan of the punisher. The movies were pretty bad but I had a fine collection of the comics/graphic novels as a kid. I like what zen said about him. Sums things up nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The Punisher is a vigilante who considers killing, kidnapping, extortion, coercion, threats of violence and torture to be acceptable crime-fighting tactics." Wow, you are a fan of killing, kidnapping, extortion, coercion, threats of violence, and torture? You must be a psychopath along with being an ass!

CollegeB Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 There is a difference in killing, kidnapping and coercing those who transgress upon others as opposed to advocating taking people out of the gene pool just because you feel superior to them. So take your elitist cultural attitudes and shove em where the sun don't shine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was giving CollegeB some of his own medicine that he spouted on another thread. I was trying to show his hypocrisy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crash Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Hmmm, so many to choose from! Two of my favorites are Wonder Woman and Wolverine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
