Words By David D.

There used to be a time when reading comic books was seen as a hobby for overweight, socially inept hermits with a large porn collection to make up for lack of a girlfriend or interaction with the fairer sex.

After the second Batman movie (which wasn’t that great in its own right), things went terribly downhill in a horrible George Clooney-piloted blaze of burning Superpoop. We had the atrocious Punisher movie starring Dolph Lundgren of semi-Rocky fame, the low-budget Captain America debacle, and the Fantastic Four flick that never saw the light of day.
