Top 10 Comic Books by Garth Ennis

This is my personal Top 10 list of comic books by Garth Ennis. So, don't be upset if your favourite isn't on my list.
By the way, it's my third attempt to post this video. The first two videos were terminated due to copyright claims. I used some tracks from old Italo-Westerns by Ennio Moricone which I considered proper. Now, I used tracks from the movies "From Dusk Till Dawn" and "Desperado". Enjoy!

@DjangoDerDude Der Hauptakteur Hughie sowie ein paar von den Schurken und Nebencharaktere sind interessant. Aber im Großen und Ganzen hat man das Alles schon mal gesehen.

@DrGull1888 ne, boys hab ich noch nich gelesen... hab ich aber vor... ich hoffe halt das die charaktere zumindest gut sind...

[DrGull1888]

@DjangoDerDude Hast Du Dich an The Boys herangewagt? Die ersten Bänder inklusive Herogasm sind eigendlich ganz gut. Danach wiederholt sich das Dauergeficke sowie die Dauerbrutalität, was langatmig ist und die Storry kommt nicht vom Fleck.

@DjangoDerDude Barracuda is great. He reminds me of Herr Starr in Preacher, loosing limp after limp. I haven't read the spin-off yet but the next shopping frenzy might come soon. I don't have a deeper impression left from The Slavers. I know it's the one with the human trafficking. Time to reread it I guess. Man of Stone, well Zakharov is a great villain and the Russians in Afghanistan are bad-ass. Barracuda is bad-ass too. And fun.

@DrGull1888 Alles klar^^

von den battlefields hat mich "dear billy" sehr beeindruckt... herzzerreißend...

[DjangoDerDude]

@DrGull1888 my favourites are "the slavers" and "man of stone"... so good...

But i also like "Barracuda"... just because of the title character^^ I just read his little spin off mini series... it's hilarious^^ i love this character^^

@DjangoDerDude I read Battlefield Happy Valley. I find Ennis takes on World War II rather tiresome since he recycles the same clichés over and over again. There's the greenhorn, the guy who takes the greenhorn under his wings, the constantly swearing rest, Nazi fighter aces, bad ass Russians, foul mouthed Marines or Rangers, etc.

Nebenbei, wenn es Dir lieber ist, können wir auch Deutsch parlieren.

@DjangoDerDude Oh, that's unusual since when people think of Ennis they automatically think of his old collaborator Dillon. But it doesn't matter. Punisher Max is grimmer and darker in tone which is also okay. There are also some Punisher Max stories I like like his origin story in Vietnam or "Widowmaker" where those mafia widows try to take revenge on him.

[DjangoDerDude]

@DrGull1888 Yeah, the Russian is great^^ but i just think the tone of the series just doesn't fit the punisher... it always seems like ennis is holding back... and i don't like dillon's style on this one, it's too happy^^ (altough i LOVE his work on preacher)

It's probably because i read the max titles first and expected the grittier stuff...

have you read his battlefields stuff? i think they're pretty great...

[DrGull1888]

@DjangoDerDude I dunno. The Marvel Knights series has more black humor. Think of the Russian beating up Spider-Man or Punisher and Wolverine causing havoc in this South-American Neo-Nazi enclave.
