    Favorite moments? From what I can remember, loved it when Simonson had D.H. go up against Thor & Iron Man during his run on Fantastic Four

    I didn't read the character as a kid when his comic(s) were coming out, but as an adult I've tried to go back and read as much as I can -- and I always love when he appears nowadays. I loved his portrayal in Gillen's short-lived SWORD series, and his last miniseries involving Hulkling and Wiccan was definitely an interesting take. Both DH1 and DH2 are such cool characters and I'm surprised they haven't been brought back to prominence: there are so many comics where they'd fit in perfectly!

    -Pav, who is thinking Excalibur, GotG, Iron Man, Deadpool...
    You were Spider-Man then. You and Peter had agreed on it. But he came back right when you started feeling comfortable.
    You know what it means when he comes back

    Death's head and circuit breaker. The two transformers anti-heroes marvel got to keep the rights to. Why has he not fought deadpool yet?

    Shame he didn't show up in loki as he worked with the tva at times.

    Plus he has a link to transformers, dr who and the fantastic four in his history. Not many marvel comics can say that.

    Awesome! Since it's alright to mention him, I'd also be interested in the return of D.H. II (XD)

    Circuit Breaker's return is being fouled up due to some legal issues over the ownership of the character. Explained in the following video better than I could.

    On the subject of Death's-Head II's return. It seems like the guy ,and his buxom partner, Tuck, never seem to get any respect. The ones who make it to the pros when it comes to Death's Head seem to have more love for the original over his future self. Like the Danny Ketch Ghost Rider, who enjoyed higher sales during his tenure than previous incarnations, and future. Death's Head II, who really put the character on the map, has likewise been left in the cold in current stories. Hell, even the recent mini featuring the Freelance Peacekeeping Agent, had him playing second fiddle to Hulkling, Wiccan, and the emo Death's Head IV. I loved the REVOLUTIONARY WAR:Death's Head II featuring the original, and his future self facing off for the first time officially. The banter between the two, and the event ending with the two teaming up on some business venture with DH2's Tuck. Sadly it was never followed up on. I thought it would make for an interesting buddy cop type of series.

    On the subject of Death's Head's Transformers connections ,and origins. Due to Marvel owning the Freelance Peacekeeping Agent, Hasbro created an analog to the bounty hunter with a similar characterization, vibe to Death's Head who debuted in TRANSFORMERS ANIMATED . In the form of the nail affiliated Cybertronian bounty hunter, Lockdown.
