... Matt C : The previous Punisher title on the MAX imprint didn’t really flourish following Garth Ennis’ departure, but Marvel obviously felt the concept was strong enough to relaunch. I had high hopes for this based on Aaron’s work elsewhere (particularly Scalped ) and while it does deliver the goods on the script front, there is major problem for me that kind of overshadows...

... Max is not part of the regular MU, but I thought Jason wanted to bring it closer then what Garth Ennis was doing. Garth’s Punisher felt old and very world weary, continuing to fight his war because there was nothing else left for him. His world consisted of only humans; the super human was not in this universe. The MU Punisher is young by comparison and feels like he...

Time for another installment of TWiP. Or should we call it ThWiP? That makes it a comic pun. Whatever. Reader Solenna had us include a panel of Psylocke #1 to show that according to her, the comic can be summed up with “sphere boobs”.

- When I first heard of Marvel's decision to continue publishing Punisher MAX after Garth Ennis had wrapped his run and departed the book, I was more than a little skeptical. To me, giving someone – anyone – else the series sounded about as crazy as letting someone other than Brian K. Vaughan continue Y: The Last Man with a sixty-first issue. Both the Punisher MAX character and story...

... be right up his alley. John August is attached to the Preacher script, based on the series by Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon. It ran for 75 issues between 1995 and 2000, and was a frequent lightning rod for controversy regarding its handling of religious issues, as well as its dark sense of humor and violence.

... Starting with the smallest grouping the big release from Marvel for me is the new PunisherMax #1 . Garth Ennis had a seminal run on this book and doing Punisher in the Max line allows him to be more of a “real” character as he does not work as well with super heroes running around with him. Rick Remender’s Punisher book set firmly in the MU has been fun and almost...

... show you a moment featuring one of the toughest marines in comics, Frank Castle, in a moment from Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson's Punisher: Born (the story of Castle in Vietnam - do note that it is explicit content) I don't think this needs much set-up, except that it is narrated by one of the men in Frank's unit... Pretty damn hardcore right there. 4 Comments At November 10, 2009...
