I've only read the first issue of Darkhawk, but it felt so contrived. Cynical, jaded kid that feels powerless and doesn't believe in anything finds the magical power to be an instrument of change in his world.

Just the cover alone looks totally *SQUEE*.

Are we counting merchandise tie-ins?

For that matter, are we counting the properly forgotten Star Comics?

Gee. I wonder what this could be based on.

It read pretty well when I was 12-13. But then again that's probably because I was at an age where I was a cynical, jaded kid that felt powerless and didn't believe in anything. No luck finding a crystal though

No need to reach so far back. At least things like Team America and Rom bring to mind warm and fuzzy feelings of nostalgia. For completely worthless crap I nominate the Tsunami titles: Namor, Human Torch, Inhumans, Emma Frost and Venom, etc.

the most recent Tomb of Dracula was quite terrible... especially considering what it should have been living up to

I think I need to check my storage building. I think some one has stole all my good books.

I can Feel the RAGE burning!

Just kidding. I'm cool with people not likeing Moon Knight...as long as they have actually READ a MK comic to form a basis of opinion. All I ask is that people read it before they judge

Oh yeah, and Moon Knight didn't suck

So, onto my list

House of M
West Coast Avengers (most)
Namor (90's)
Most of the X Spin-offs (especially Generation X)
Alpha Flight ('03)
Ghost Rider (cool character, bad stories)
Doctor Who (best sci-fi show/worst comic adaptation)...yet i still read it?
Infinity Trillogy (horrible, yet fun

)

and of course, theres always...

and...

Hah! My friend has an original ink splash from Superpro 1!

Worst trade ever: Ghost Rider (70s) 35-45 for Deaths Head (original UK mini) when it was wicked hot!

How about the 90s Silver Sable series (redundant w/ Nick Fury) & of course:

Secret Defenders.

Speedball - I can't believe this was a real character

comicguy · Post by **comicguy** » Thu Jul 21, 2005 7:47 am

On the top of my list for the worst comics that Marvel has published include:

Power Pack
Sleepwalker
Team America
Darkhold
Crystar
Nomad (both mini and reg)
Secret Defenders (had to be time to renew the copyright on Defenders)
Sensational She-Hulk (the 1st couple were kind of goofy but it wore thin quick)
Sisterhood of Steel (sound like a bad porn movie)
Steelgrip Starkey !?!?(insert comments here about this title

)
Cage(both 90's and Max)
Comet Man (Bad movie = Bad comic)
Speedball (give me a break a bouncing hero)
Namor (both 90's and 03)

And these were just of the top of my head, I can come up with more later

I don't know if this is worst title ever, but the concept certainly turned out badly. Look who's in the book then look at the top left corner.

Darkhawk books were pretty good for readin'. But the his costume looked horrible. Plus I couldn't stand his Wolverine rip off claw thing.

I would enjoy a revamped Darkhawk storyline.
