  1. I didn't know that MAX was an alternate reality, I just thought it was non-continuity stories. This is like Ultimate Punisher, with a new origin for a different Kingpin.

    Not having read the Max #1, Imight be missing something here. But as far as I know, its not. MAX, I mean.

     

    Some MAX titles are mainstream, Bendis' Alias and BKV's The Hood.

  2. Glad to hear that you're enjoying the Punisher.

     

    Have you checked out The Cell one-shot? That's the biz.

     

    Now that part in Born, (<!--coloro:red--><span style="color:red"><!--/coloro-->slight spoiler<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->) when Frank was on the hill, and it was clear that he was going down, the enemy was everywhere, and he said the word to save his life and damn his soul forever...did you get the fucking chills or what? When his eyes went blood red and the smoke formed his trademark skull? Fuckin-A that was somethin'...

    Could you believe I've read the trade maybe ever other weeks since it came out, and never noticed it? Thanks, Lou.

  3. Nah, you look like Hank Azaria.

     

    In Walrus news, the wife won!

     

    "I thought your move back to the states was a done thing."

     

    Nah, I'm always considering it when my contract is up for renewal, but I got quite comfortable in Bahrain. This is it, though. In three months, its goodbye sunshine, goodbye Bahrain.

     

    I'm moving to Michigan with the wife and kid, a couple of interesting job offers there.

  4. Me and the wife have been going through a rough patch lately, stemming mostly from her wanting us to move back to the states while I'm contented to stay put.

     

    I got the bright idea of asking her if she wanted a divorce, as we did have one of those once :icon_rolleyes: Man was that a dumb move.

  5. Anyway, just to start to redress the balance: I still thought it was a fucking great movie. There.

    Right on.

     

    Saw it yesterday, I loved it. Third, maybe second best comic book movie.

     

    Shame though that a certain heartless person didn't.

  6. Went to see it with Mrs. Walrus last night, absolutely loved it, or at least what I saw of it.

    The high point of the experience was Mrs. Walrus asking me if Gambol was the guy from Year One, I was so elated of her emerging nerdery that I said that it was, even though there was no such guy.

     

    Of course she went into a mood during the nurse scene and decided we had to go home. We'll go see it again tonight, all of it hopefully, if the gods of pregnancy see it fit.

  7. I knocked up my ex-wife, got married, got bald, honeymooned in Bruges, grew a great big bushy beard and lost a toe.

    Ian, you cad!

     

    So you knocked up your ex-wife, and then as a joke, married someone else, and then your ex tried to kill you but only managed to sever your toe. And then you ran away to Bruges, grew a beard and shaved your head to conceal your identity?

    No.

     

    I got bald naturally. I got engaged to my ex-wife, the pregnant thing happened, we got married and then we honeymooned in Bruges. And then my father-in-law dropped a circular saw on my foot.

     

    I'm no longer in Bruges, Spain, but thanks for the offer.
