I firmly believe in the conspiracy that both Ultimate Spiderman runs were fucked with at the end, when it was pretty clear they were gonna be remembered more fondly.

Even the 2nd go at USM, leagues better than the current poopoo in the latest spoderman run where MJ is planning to fuck flash and they all got symbiote suits and the mystique of the symbiote is all gone since baby chibi style symbiotes exist and now they planning to force readers to remember Paul fondly.
 
Reading through Punisher Max and man, does it hold up.
I read some other punishers run from the 80s (return to big nothing is damn good, same with circle of blood) but there is just something about MAX that works better for me.

Under all the violence the Punisher MAX is known for, there are still lot of humanity.
The slaver arc is so damn brutal, but there are lot of sadness as well.

I can see why progs remain heavily invested in the comics no kill rules and other faggotry.

The no-kill rule is fine in my opinion, but only if it is then followed up with trying to then convert the villain or stop him from interacting with the outside world until he gives in. Preferably both. For example, in the Batman movie he (Bruce Wayne) gets convinced to donate to good causes and try and improve the city so that there will be less criminals. Ignoring the lack of specifics in this, it is a good character arc for him and also has purpose and use.

The problem arises when they just go "I won't kill you because it's wrong" and nothing else. They basically let them live for no reason and without expectation for rehabilitation, which is the whole argument against capital punishment/death penalty.

It is a form of civil service to execute the Green Goblin, spider man. He's a mass murderer and a psychopath. It's part of why the story of Norman Osborne is tragic. The only excuse I can see for letting him live is if there is a cure for whatever version of 'goblinism' they've gone with in this comic series.

I am against the no kill rule. The thing is that you don't need to kill the Joker, just main his arms and legs and use your Wayne money to pay some nurse or doctor to feed him and change his diapers.

The second Tintin book is already a great change. The panelling is 3 panels and in color! Most of the paneling in the first were 2 squares x 4 rows and some rare longer panel. The story of the first felt like a comedy movie with no time to stop joking, going from germany to Russia every time.

I still don't know if Tintin can understand his dog or not, the dog speaks like Tintin can understand but the Tintin dialogue to his dog feels like he is just talking to himself.

Also Tintin in the first book could start an entire Die Hard quadrilogy with the Russians trying to kill him and him escaping or surviving.
