Ray realizes how much he's screwed up, when Ninjak comes to save him with some snappy one-liners, and a sword. Still not sure what Ray's doing in the future, but I'm willing to let that story play out; I trust Lemire, and I trust this bit of storytelling in particular.
This gets more complex, more heartbreaking, as Bloodshot finds and confronts Daddy, Magic's father, and the leader of a cult. Bloodshot is furious over what Daddy's done to Magic, and how Daddy is trying to get Magic back, breaking up the family that Magic and Bloodshot have made. No doubt Da...

Frank Castle reborn. Again. Ennis gets another chance at reinventing the antihero, this time basically shucking his Marvel roots (which he used to such great and hilarious effect in the Marvel Knights run, from Welcome Back, Frank to Confederacy of Dunces) and embracing the MAX title. The results ar...
Mainly one-offs and tangential stories, but good. Liked the stories about the early Iron Fists.
