Comic book thread ON!

I know what you mean, loophole. Vintage stuff is not something into these days but I have a friend with one of the most amazing comic collections I've ever seen. It's basically like what you saw. Just breathtaking to take a step back into history.

Piratescratch, Yost and his co-writer just don't do it for me. Most of their stuff is too dark, dreary and just downright depressing. It's barely adventrous and just seems muddied and muddied. The only thing I partially enjoyed was the X-Men: Emperor Vulcan. But everything I;ve heard of X-Force is just not what I need to read. Now original X-Force I would've read.

Now original X-Force I would've read.

Did you read Rob Liefeld's X-Force miniseries a couple of years ago? That was original X-Force... and it sucked!

Does anyone else read The Incredible Herc(formerly Hulk) ?

I am a big fan of comics and the Hulk so I thought Id continue collecting it once it changed names, but honestly im really regretting it. I enjoyed the WWH tie in, but since then this series has really gone downhill in the storyline department and its a shame because when it was The Incredible Hulk, it was great!

I guess what im after is anyone else that read's this series opinion on it, or if anyone knows if there are plans to go back to good old Hulk.

Rob Liefeld sucks!

You suck! Rob Liefeld's the man I tell you! The man!

Wait. You do know that Liefield created Deadpool, right?

Yeah, I did and I do agree it was disappointing. The original concept was great but I think it needs to be distanced from Liefeld. Take Cable and Deadpool. I picked it up being a fan of both characters and trusting Fabian Nicieza's craftsmanship and that worked b/c Liefeld was not involved. I think his stories and art were better when there was editorial reign on him back in the 90s but nowadays he's very lazy.

The two x-books I still hold out hope for though are the original X-Force and X-Man. Neither of which will likely see the light of day again.

I think a lot of what we love about Deadpool came from the writers not the designer.

Was there a title called "original X-Force"? Or are you referring to the actual original X-Force consisting of Cable, Domino, Shatterstar (always thought he was a bad ass), Feral, Warparth, Cannonball and Boom- Boom (later Boomer)? because that was more then a couple of years ago that was 93-94. I still have "the X-Cutioners song" crossover that I still love reading. Also I didn't think original X-Force sucked. I really liked it. They were a real misfit bunch that had so many issues. But that is my opinion.

Was there someone else in the original line up? I think Siryn, Richter and Sunspot all joined at later dates.

I was referring to the 2003(?) X-Force miniseries. It was drawn (and written?) by Rob Liefeld and had the original X-Force cast, and since he was the first artist too it was the closest to the original 1991 X-Force comics that we've seen in a while.

Yep your list is the original X-Force lineup (although Domino was actually an imposter). When the others, like Siryn, Rictor and Sunspot joined it kind of became New Mutants again though. I liked X-Force most straight after X-Cutioner's Song (but the costumes were awful!). But I loved Milligan/Allred's take on X-Force/X-Statix much more because it was just so different from any past or present X-Men comic.
