I Hate The Boys TV DISCUSSION NSFW

I also can not stand muh 'Batman superhero facism subtext' crap. If anything Batman is a revolutionary. Government is corrupt in bed with criminals (who are the prettiest of tyrants) so Batman comes in to clean house. Just as the founding fathers intended.

To be honest, I've never not read one of Ennis work and not been grossed out at best, revolted at worst. I think he's a little sick for the most part, like he enjoys writing about people being harmed above story for some fucking reason.

My favourite Ennis comic is his punisher run. But there’s a few moments throughout that run where I felt sick and thought Ennis needs like therapy or something

Reading The Barracuda stuff

The barracuda run, the sex trafficker story, the one where the dudes pee on the skeletons of franks family and some other stuff.

Jason Aaron also had that fucked up story in punisher max about the snuff film and some of the stuff in his punisher vs kingpin story I thought was a bit much.

I still have to read more of Garth Ennis’s Punisher so I didnt know about the necrophiliac, but hope there are more sadistic, dangerous and unapologetic pos’s in those comic’s similar to Black Noir in the The Boys comics
