After having the Punisher head south of the boarder to investigate a series of brutal murders, the last issue left us off with a very promising tale. However, this story is starting to look like your familiar Punisher story, [...]

Garth Ennis’ incredible run on The Punisher concludes in this issue. Very few writers have become synonymous with a character to the point where anyone else writing them makes you cringe. Ennis took us past the gun-toting maniac surface and [...]
