Jun 22, 2020 · I do not like him.like yeah I agree with some of his criticism of The military industrial complex, Toxic masculinity, and stuff, but then you have a lot of nasty Gorn, and shit like Kyle Rayner (Green lantern) getting raped as a joke because Garth Ennis hates superheros, to get through if you...

Jun 22, 2020 · Garth Ennis used to be my favorite comic book writer (back during the 90s and early 00s). I loved Hitman, Hellblazer and Preacher. Then I started to bounce off his works. I liked the first Just a Pilgrim miniseries, but didn't like the 2nd one nearly as much. I tried to enjoy the Boys, but I came to loathe it over time. Then came Crossed.

Jun 21, 2020 · In my opinion, Garth Ennis has always been aggressively mediocre with a few moments of being decent because he had people working to curb his excesses. His shock jock style of writing lacks a point, and points he does have are undermined because he just can’t help himself writing elaborate revenge porn. He swings at low hanging fruit and his characters have …

Jun 21, 2020 · As for Garth Ennis, I read and kinda enjoyed his recent A Walk Through Hell - it had some interesting things to say about the nature of evil, but man! it was bleak - but Dangerous Habits aside his work does nothing for me, either. Too much anger. Yes, there's lots and lots of justification he cites . . . and some critical works should bite and bite hard! . . . but too much of …

Jun 22, 2020 · I mean if Ennis wrote Watchmen, their would be a whole Prologue with the Comedian where he eats Vietnamese babies, Ozymandias would be a pedaphile , and Silk specter would get gang raped by Doctor Manhattan, who wold be a huge asshole that escalated the Cold War for the lulz, because Garth Ennis hate Religion, AKA Christianity,

Jun 21, 2020 · The Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile aren't your typical Stephen King stories. Or "The Body", which later became Stand By Me. And the movie adaptions of those all did fairly well. I think what helped there is that Stephen King had a solid reputation as a best-selling author by then, so...

Jan 6, 2009 · I think you've read Garth Ennis' Magnum Opus, and nothing else he's done is remotely as good. Unlike the rest I'm going therefore to ignore Ennis and say go straight for Warren Ellis' run (the author of Transmetropolitan).

Jun 1, 2014 · So, in Garth Ennis' run on The Punisher - in particular his Marvel Knights run - during the first arc (Welcome Back, Frank), we're introduced to The Russian - a talkative, jovial, highly enthusiastic mercenary sent by a mob boss to kill Frank. The character shrugs off most of the punishment...

Jun 21, 2020 · Batman not killing the Joker makes perfect sense. The rest of the world not killing the Joker makes rather less sense. It's just one of a million problems that stems from the desire to shove hundreds of episodic stories into a single long …

Aug 22, 2012 · It's pretty well-known that, with the notable exception of Superman, Garth Ennis doesn't care for most superheroes. When he writes them, his depictions are often unkind - but everybody can stand to have the wind taken out of their sails occasionally, right? There's something about it that's...
