Where is The Punisher?

[ed2962]

Echoing batnbreakfast, yes, Scalped really is amazing. But outside of Scalped and his Punisher Max, which I thought was good, I haven't read anything else by Aaron.

Southern Bastards was pretty goods but that seems to be on indefinite hold.

Yeah, there's indeed another Punisher thread:

For some reason I was thinking there was another one not related to the new mini. Oh, well...

LOL! So many Punisher threads! But which one should be the one and only appreciation thread?

Just saw Peach Momoko's cover.

I'm not a gun enthusiast by any stretch of the means, but why are they giving the Punisher katana swords now instead of his usual H&Ks and hand cannons? Or is that not Frank, but someone else taking over the mantle?

And no, not a fan of the demonic skull symbol. Either give him back some version of his original symbol, or kill the character off permanently and be done with it. I'm not even a fan of the Punisher and this rubs me the wrong way.

Or have the real Punisher show up and kill the fake.

He's running the hand, which is a stereotypical ninja organization. Mind you, he could still use guns in the story and only be shown with katanas for the cover.

Or he could mix the two Snake-Eyes style.

I think he'd be the first person in the Hand to do that. These guys seem to stick solely to archaic weapons and superpowers.

I always find it funny how what something looks like matters more than what’s actually being done.

IIRC, the Hand aren't merely ninjas, but a criminal organization as well. So it's ok for Frank to go shoot a bunch of kids in a park selling dime bags of weed as part of his "just" crusade, but joining up with murderers and assassins is fully within his credo now? Interesting.

That is an immutable aspect of the human condition. The all-too convenient moral perch is like the fruit of a tree that hides its hypocrisy below ground, in the roots.

Show me one time he did that.

He's worked with assassins before (and even hooked up with Elektra) and even once lead a mafia family. It's not the norm for him, but it's not like he hasn't done it before.

Right, but that just means that Frank really doesn't see any difference between himself and the evil that he claims that he wants to eradicate. He's supposed to be the solution, but he has to know that he's now part of the problem. So when does he off himself?

He did kill himself once.

We don't talk about that storyline.
