Food & Healthcare in this country sucks but, we got plenty of money for other countries to bomb hospitals 🏥

Lowkey I hate whenever Jason and Roy are written as friends at this point. Like any time they are in comics it destroys Roy’s character (and Jason’s for that matter) - aka the whole of RHATO, but not to mention it usually comes with totally devaluing the Fab 5′s friendship with each other and acting like the OG Titans would just... stop talking when they’re literally best friends and love each other so much. Like, I can barely find anything outside of older comics with them all together anymore :(, much less that has them in character and not with the post N52 versions of them.

In my honest opinion Garth Ennis doesn't understand The Punisher

Garth Ennis' take on The Punisher is that he is a man who is utterly obsessed with violence and war and really never cared about his wife and kids and really just use avenging them as an excuse to start killing again because he's a sadistic killer and says that he worships and prays to war

That's.... really fucking edgy and not at all who or what Frank Castle is

Frank Castle is a traumatized war veteran who after all the pain and sorrow he endured in war (wether it was the Vietnam war or the war in Iraq it depends on which version you are reading) finally gets happiness by having a family until one day they are taken away by a drive by shooting caused by mafia hitmen which this event basically breaks Frank and essentially makes him lose all will to live and essentially sets him on a war path to avenge his family and make sure no one goes through the same pain he did until the day he dies

He doesn't kill because he enjoys it he kills because what else is there for him to do? How can he go back to a normal life when the one thing he loved was taken from him?

He is a tragic Rambo-esque character who essentially has nothing left to lose and spends every waking moment killing criminals because there is nothing left for him

He's completely numb to everything around him but not because he's a heartless killing machine but because he's a dead man walking Frank Castle died with his wife and kids and all that remains is this numb broken shell of a man that is now The Punisher

This is why I feel like Jon Berenthal's portrayal of Frank is the most accurate he's a broken man with nothing left to lose whereas Thomas Jane and Ray Stevenson's (rest in peace) portrayals of Frank are more akinned to Garth Ennis' version of Frank

Frank Castle isn't a sadistic killing machine who is in love with death and violence and war

Frank Castle is a broken man who kills criminals because that's all that he can do

Ennis' Frank Castle isn't Frank Castle he's American Billy Butcher

Bottomline: Garth Ennis doesn't understand Frank Castle

if i had a nickel every time garth got really really mad about people choosing to be pacifists instead of actively fighting the danger/evil that exist around them, i'd have (at least) 2 nickels, and that's not a lot but it's interesting that it has happened twice

someone left a reply on the dick garth youngest age post and when i clicked on it, i couldn't see it on the post, so i assumed they blocked me but i could 100% see their blog when i went to it so then i assumed tumblr was just being Bad as usual, but Now the comment is gone from my notifications as well and i don't remember their username so i can't check if they have me blocked.

anyway, if you're reading this random dick stan, i just want you to know that i'm not anti-dick, i'm just very pro garth and i hate to see garth erasure by fab five stans :(

Dick Grayson for ask game 3,4,7,9 Please and Thank You!

@confusedhummingbird

You’re very welcome friend

3) Dick and Wally, Dick and Babs, Dick and Roy, Dick and Vic, Dick and Garth, Dick and Gar, Dick and Rae, oh yeah and Dick and Donna, the Wonder Twins of course lol

4) Look I’m sorry but DickBabs is not my cup of tea. What I’m not sorry about though is that also NOTP are any Batcest and especially SlaDick. Just Blegh

7) Both of us place high expectations on ourselves and often are prone to beating ourselves up emotionally whenever we fail to live up to them in one form or another. Sure, I’m not a circus acrobat but having a BA degree, that sort of pressure can still be there regardless.

9) I guess I can call him a Cinnamon Fave as he’s great when done right and accordingly to his canonical self but when too much fanon takes over his writing, it can get problematic if that makes sense lol

we won. dc is healing

[damiansgrayson]

look i know I'm not using the word right but I still gotta say nothing gives me the ick more than donna/garth.

[jimiscribif]

I'm less mad that Garth isn't on the new Titans line up now that we know it's definitely going to be written by Tom Taylor

[italwayshadtobeyou]

I enjoyed Garth, up until the point where they got him involved in that idiotic “pureblood” retcon (NO ONE MENTIONED THIS WHEN EVE WAS MAKING MONSTERS EVERYWHERE IN SEASON 6???) and gave him a boring bucolic existence. Turns out that watching werewolves-lite doing everyday things is kind of like watching humans do it! Which is not why I watch a show called Supernatural.

honestly i think you might be a little fucking stupid if your main takeaway from the boys show is "uhm they think all superheroes are fascists : /"

[spooky-donut-ghost-house]

Yk at first I thought maybe Garth Ennis' The Boys comic might be the most edgiest thing he's written

Then I read his Punisher run and I thought that was the edgiest thing he's written

Then there was Preacher and I was like "This. This has to be it. This has to be the edgiest thing Garth Ennis has written. It surely can't get worse then this, right?"

Nope

I was wrong

The Crossed is single handly the most vile, putrid, disgusting, awful, horrendous, horrible, bad, terrible, depraved, disturbing, edgiest comic series I have ever read

[hitchell-mope]

Why so glum chums? The thing nobody wanted is right where it belongs. No where near you. It’s a good thing. Not a time for moralising.

[troythings]

said it before and will say it again

terry long x donna, dick x donna and garth x donna are the worst things to ever happen to donna’s romantic life
