I thought it was pretty weird to see Punisher involved in Civil War at all.
On a related note, I'm ashamed to have worn a Skull-Logo Punisher t-shirt in high school, and without even being a Punisher fan at that.
Should I be sad to say that I still do on occasion wear my Punisher t-shirt.
Also Spawn got me into comics cause it was so hardcore, like Slipknot
wow I hate middle school me
I bought the Angel Punisher mini-series today. And while browsing back issues, I remembered I have the full run of Force Works. Does that go in the shame pile?

Yes. The art, so bad. And the cover to #1 was one of the worst gimmick ones at the time. Pop-up cover? Well, it didn't really pop up.
What happened in Chuck Austen's X-Men run? I can't remember.

-Angel committed statutory on Paige Guthrie.
-Havok came back, Lorna went crazy when he wouldn't marry her but was in love with the mutant-phobic nurse Annie
-Juggernaut slept with She-Hulk
-Gambit went blind
-Nightcrawler was the son of the devil or belasco or something
-A manga artist did an arc of stories that involved very bad costumes
-Phillip Tan art
-Something with Havok peeing out the body of Iceman in hell (does it sound bad yet?)
-The cool fish kid Sammy was killed by Black Tom
-Angel committed statutory on Paige Guthrie.

That's right! I stopped reading after the Juggernaut/Black Tom stuff.
Oh god, this is like five pages of the bitching thread.
Out of curiosity, did they ever explain what was up with Annie's son? When they left there was something sinister in how he was acting, like he was possessed or something. Did they just drop that?

When I was young I thought that owning the first issue of a series would be a good buy... and so along with Spider-Man 2099 #1, Doom 2099 #1, and Punisher 2099 #1 I also bought... James Bond, Jr. #1.
I know they didn't all some out at once, but the same fever that caused me to buy one caused me to buy the rest.
Even as I type out this post I can hear the theme to the James Bond, Jr. animated series theme song.
I just looked up the James Bond Jr. theme on youtube and I swear I remember a certain line from it being "the spy who's just too cool, and he's still in school" yet I didn't hear it once in the opening. Must have been a commercial bump.
Anyway I'll add the 2005 Daredevil vs. Punisher miniseries to my secret shame list. Back then I actually liked it but man it does not hold up now. Daniel Way's Bullseye vs. Punisher is still great though.

I am embarassed to admit I enjoyed all of this except for the Havok romance and Sammy dying.

Nono, that was cool. Nah, I was mostly buying into that run but I didn't like that either.

My mom owns the entire 1970s marvel limited KISS series.
Can... Can I be ashamed of my mom?
Edit: The gimmick was that KISS bled into the ink, so each issue was like having KISS's blood.
There was only one, it was not a series. They came out with another in 1979 but it had nothing to do with it.
YOu are insane, I wish my mom had the Kiss comic. Actually the Kiss comic is an awesome vintage piece and it is very much prized. How cool is it that Kiss blood is in the ink!

I'm a grown ass man that enjoys reading those WB (or whatever) DC kids comics.
I also really, really liked 90's Spider-Man comics at the time. Mullets and all. In my defense though I hit high school at about the same time the Clone Saga stuff started so I thankfully missed out on all of that. I still have no idea why people think it was so bad - never read a panel.
There's actually a really really cool in depth account of exactly what the Clone Saga was all about and how it went so very wrong, it features a lot of insider commentary of editors and writers who worked on the Spider-Man books at the time. It's a really fascinating read.

And Robin 3000 book one and two. It just never sat right with me.
I still can't figure out how they got me to buy action figures I had to assemble, and I was happy with it.
the art's decent, the story's ok for a toy advertisement
I know they didn't all some out at once, but the same fever that caused me to buy one caused me to buy the rest.

I know right? They were worth hours of fun. for whatever reason.

And I'm sure M made all her 00's get vasectomies or something so this stuff wouldn't happen.

He was. I uhhh... had the NES game.

As for shame these speak for themselves:
*Hangs head in shame*
I have that. Seriously, this thread is making me realize how bad my taste in comics was as a kid.

I find it amazing people still defend this guy, even after all the hateful shit he says online.
gotta get me a whole run of that comic
Now you're just becoming a parody of yourself TLB
the ultimate warrior is clearly insane
and people still hang on his ever word
he invented destrucity
and there is an entire issue of his comic where he beats the shit out of santa clause and puts him in bondage
YOU ARE NOTHING BUT A NORMAL!!!
