Wow. I don't have a lot of words for the characterization of Sabertooth here, but it seems pretty... off.

Also, when did Daredevil become strong enough to punch people through walls?

[crinos]

Well this was before we found out Sabertooth's connection to Wolverine. IIRC this storyline was the first time the two of them met on screen and established they were rivals.

(Also, "The Hunger it.... LEAVES ME HUNGRIER", for the love of God Vic, hire a writer.)

Honestly, I like the idea better than the monster Sabretooth is now.

I recall this version of Sabertooth, long before they added the massive bulk, crazy healing factor, trying to make a nemesis for Wolverine.

[starwolf_oakley]

He was "just" an Iron Fist villain then, and fought Spider-Man a few times.

[arilou_skiff]

And got beaten up by Felicia!

[icon_uk]

And Power Pack IIRC.

[lamashtar]

That was my favorite Sabretooth fight!

Getting webbed in the face then ripping your own face off along with the webs doth not a fight make... FUNNY as hell, yes a fight no. And since it was written by "He who must not be shown" can't show it.

Kind of funny that that put Vic in the hospital when just a few years later when he got "popular" it would have just annoyed him until it healed in 10 seconds.

Despite the fact that PAD has said he doesn't mind panels or even a couple of pages being post as long as they are not recent comics and spoilers that defy the point of going out and reading the whole issue or books...

The management are just being pointlessly prideful at this point.

[lamashtar]

The mods have a policy. Complaining just gets your thread frozen. I believe we're allowed to post links to scans, so there's always that.

That's not very constructive is it? At this point, I think it'd be more beneficial to drop the grudge and actually listen to what he has said in the past, but hey, that's why I'll only ever be fairly casual here and not one of the head honchos of the place. ;)

[wizardru]

I think Claremont later retconned it to be that this was one of Mr. Sinister's damaged sub-par clones of Sabretooth, not the real deal. He's swayed back and forth in ability, just like he was originally going to be Wolverine's father.

Daredevil makes a hobby of beating up mutants.

[dcbanacek]

Or, mutants make a hobby of beating up blind people. :)

[bj_l]

Haha, touché!
