Spark Of Spirit

Wow, good job with that!

Glad to see Iron Fist. Totally underrated hero. Am I mistaken or are you missing Iron Man? I thought he was one of your favorites.

Like a lot of people, only in live action. I also like the live action Cap more. Same goes for their Avengers EMH counterparts, which I like just as much as the movie ones. That's likely due to my lack of exposure to them in comics though.

Yep, Danny Rand was made a favorite due to Ed Brubaker's run. It was incredible.

Deadpool being #1 is good. Very good. :joy:

Dr. Ensatsu-ken

Great list. I really need to read more comics.

I am really enjoying what I've been reading of Brubaker's Iron Fist run, though.

I try to reuse as few images as possible. I purposely reused Black Jacket Lupin and the Zenigata pic, which are both from the same artist (

). They rock. Ok, I'll merge the villains later to have my true top 30 characters of comics list.

Man, I wish I had some money. I liked the first volume or two that I read.

Mutant Zombie Island. Indian War. Nazi Vampire War. Origin story co-written by Stephen King himself and so so much more in just 4 Volumes. I'm sitting here thinking about my favorite arcs and other parts of American Vampire and I'm now pondering how I have just read these great comic books just one time each. Since I'm an impatient bastard, I'll read them again after I read Volume 5 and 6. I can't believe it's been two years since I've read any of it.
