The Punisher 2099 is a psychopathic madman who only gets better and more crazy with each subsequent issue, and the actual writing follows suit. It's always goofy, but after the first issue its true quality begins to shine through and it's legitimately good. Like, not so bad it's good, or good enough that it overcomes the goofiness, it's actually kind of brilliant, one of the best series I've read in a while. I went from taking the piss to gushing over it like a total non-ironic fanboy and if I ever finish the second journal entry you'll see my tone shift. ****ing read it. Read it, read it, read it. If you're disappointed then we're not friends.

Also, if you're not a Punisher fan then you should still read Punisher MAX, as it's an R-rated series that is the most mature and nihilistic version of the Punisher that could ever exist. It single-handedly justifies the Punisher's existence.

Punisher MAX Vol. 1 #1 - 60 + Extras – GetComics

I have to get on Sandman first. I really have to make time to do that. Like, today if I can. If not, then tomorrow. Or by next week. Maybe the end of the month. Definitely before Christmas. Or New Year.

You have a reprieve for the sake of Sandman.

Hammerfall are good.

No, I'm not defending power metal.

HammerFall are as much heavy as power metal so it's not entirely a contradiction to like them but hate PM. You still suck but at least you don't suck at one thing.

Not sure how nobody has posted Anthrax yet.

>>>>Band is named after anthrax.

>>>>Make goofy songs about comic books.

If you're gonna post Anthrax then this is the correct answer.

Scott Ian's guitar tone gives me the warm fuzzies.
