Anything by VanHook, as a rule.

You may want to stop reading Bloodshot when you see a clown on the cover. :roll:
Uzzi is a parody of the Punisher! See, that was VanHook and Vosburg calling the Punisher a clown...

It was!

Shadowman was really the only book that was great from start to finish. Other than the occasional Mike Baron fill-in issue. You can skip those steaming piles of crap.

I usually enjoyed the historical part of Eternal Warrior issues. It was always interesting to see Gilad's role during important events....

I actually think Ninjak was good all the way through but got better after Chaos Effect. Not sure to many would agree with me on that.

I didn't give you too much grief, but it WAS rather disturbing...

I like, of course, that several avatars of scantily clad females with boobage flopping all around raises nary an eyebrow. ;)

But I would say that A&A was the best, until BWS left.

I also liked most of Ninjak, maybe the best end of a run.
Archer and Armstrong stayed...ahem...strong until the mid teens issues in my view (writer change, ie Windsor-Smth's departure as cited by Elveen).

I really enjoyed the early issues of The Second Life of Doctor Mirage as well.

Didn't you feel the finale was somewhat rushed and mishandled in some ways?

Or am I taking you literally by mistake.... :oops:

I never got bored of Turok. Got much better when he went back into the lost land.

Oh yeah? Try putting all that floppage in one post and it gets pulled faster than a ton of tainted beef at a grammar school...

They may not raise eyebrows, but I bet they raise other things...
