Eh… you can’t really kill Venom, but when he tried to do the Penance Stare, it fucked up the rider. The new Venom is a badass too though. ---

heres a better question, what DON’T you collect? The rider is cool on the generic superhero/antihero level, but he is no where near the cosmic dudebros. Jack, please tell me you saw the punisher. since you seem to follow this stuff, what did you think? ---

> [@Treads4Heads](#): > > Jack, please tell me you saw the punisher. since you seem to follow this stuff, what did you think? I liked it. I liked the first one too. They both have their moments where the corny is too strong, but it is Marvel, and it is based on corny. I’m the guy who played Marvel Ultimate Alliance and ripped the cut scenes to my photobucket to show the guys at work. I would pay $200 to see a full length movie of that quality. These are dark and shitty because of Photobucket, but they are kick ass in real life.

I’ve spent literally over 100 hours on Wikipedia, or should I say the Marvel Database portion of Wiki. Essentially, when I read a character profile, which leads to another profile that I’m unfamiliar with I go to my buddy, Lemur. Lemur knows everything comics. He is comic book guy. When I ask him about the event he responds with an issue, and any other instances like the event that I mentioned. He brings in those comics the next day. I read them at work, and then I ask for more. None of my research is ever done at home 🙂 ILC has his HDD… which contains every episode of every Marvel cartoon ever. He was unable to save the disk though. ☹ When I was a young lad, I would collect the cards. I would study the backs of the cards for days at a time. Specifically stats and background info. [Marvel.com](http://Marvel.com) is amazing. They have this universe thing… where when you search for someone, it puts them in the center of the universe. Everyone they’ve ever come into contact with is then linked to them… and so on and so forth. Essentially tying everyone together. Each with their story. I can’t post on day shift… I have other forums that are not on “the blocked list” that I surf all day. If we talked more Marvel here… I think I would come by more often. 🙂 ---
