How jaded do you have to be to see a 300 pound dude jump through your train wall, and think it's a show? Especially when you're in Marvel New York, Superfreak Capital of the world.
>>
>>83330473
I have to say, I'm not a big fan of Wolfman's Marvel work except Dracula. When he wrote superheroes it always seemed like he'd rather be writing something else.

I still think the same thing is true with Teen Titans but that was his series so he could steer it in the direction of stuff he cared about (horror, mystery, fetishism).

I forgot to make the joke last night, but did he ever write for Werewolf by Night or another werewolf book? Or was he expressly forbidden from writing those, because the puns would be obnixious?

Sonofagun, he did write several issues of Werewolf by Night.

I recall he's made jokes about how the Comics Code didn't want him to use his own name.

I kinda liked his Daredevil, but that might just be because I was comparing it to the other Pre-Miller Daredevil I read.

>>83330684
Comics.org says Marv Wolfman wrote issues 11-15 of Werewolf By Night.

I didn't check who replaced him but I'm guessing it was Dick Wolf.

Well, he did create Bullseye.

I think Wolfman is one of the secret fathers of the whole "grim and gritty" school of superhero comics. He really seemed to like to add as much murder as he could.

Not all arch enemies are based on longevity. Consider how Norman Osborn is considered Peter's, despite not being around for almost two decades.
Mace may still be around now (or may not, I forget if he actually died in Mighty Avengers), but that Soda Machine is the greatest menace to the Hero for Hire.

I want you to look at that fourth panel, and remember that it's a plot point, mentioned many times, that Luke Cage weighs 300 pounds.

We're going through all of it, so let's try to see where that went wrong. I notice though that he seemed to get noticeably happier in the Power Man & Iron Fist retitle. Danny is too, a bit.

>>83335033
I just like the whole "they show a lot of spaghetti westerns and the walls are thin, so you constantly hear gunshots" angle. And you know, living above a movie theater is a little strange, but still down-to-earth, which suits Luke.

Old woman and her cat in a burning room. This bodes poorly.

Well, their survival rate is at least.

Some of them had some recurrence potential, like Diamondback or Wildfire.
Heck, after reading that Wildfire issue, I'd be shocked if Nick Spencer doesn't drag him out of limbo to be another right wing strawman villain like he seems found of using.

No, I have no intention of storytiming THAT issue, since I don't believe it's relevant to Luke and Danny.

Yeah, most Marvel villains are lacking a means within their setting for keeping their villains alive and reoccurring like Arkham Asylum. Doctor Strange does alright in this regard with having his villains trapped in other dimensions or what have you, but most of the other don't have any consistent prison esque complex

There's a reason he's one of Luke's bigger villains.
>>
>>83337021
Yeah, EMH did a great job in that regard. Hank Pyms Big House was my favorite. That's such a psychopath thing to do, shrinking people down and locking them in a doll house, and Hank doesn't even see it

These solo Power Man stories are a lot better than I thought they'd be honestly. I never read any of his stories that weren't with Iron Fist before.

Most of the EMH ones were right out of the comics.
The Vault was for a long time the main super villain prison.
The Cube is from Morrison's Marvel Boy.
The Raft is a Bendis creation circa New Avengers.
42 is clearly from Civil War.

I think the Big House was something from Geoff Johns' run on the Avengers.

Rikers Island is also meant to have super villain holding capabilities.

Personally I like Danny's early solo stuff earlier, but that may because Claremont/Byrne are great. That said, he's got enough good stories that this storytime is worth it.

And tomorrow, we'll get to see how Iron Fist leads up to that fateful meeting. And you all will be able to participate in Iron Fist threads having read more than just Fraction! It'll all be great fun!

Pretty hyped actually. I've always wanted to read their early stories before they became a buddy cop duo
