The Dark regime one-shots are proving to be much much better than expected. The Daredevil book introduced the new writer as well as the new story arc, recapped what had come before in a non-cumbersome way, as well as quickly invited new visitors to begin reading the routine series. Now, Rick Remender as well as Tan Eng Huat have made with The Punisher what must have been done a long time ago.
If you don’t want me to spoil the punch-line of the one-shot for you, just understand that I suggest the book without reservation. Plus, it’s got John Romita, Jr., on the pencils doing some unusually gritty work. I haven’t seen him do work such as this considering that his Wolverine: opponent of the specify books with mark Millar. I’m sure a few of the credit score goes to the inking of Klaus Janson, who may be the very best at what he does.
Okay, stop reading now if you don’t want the spoilers. (Of course, with all the discounts marvel has been doing, I’m not sure I’m spoiling anything.)
Now that that is out of the method . . . Punisher has never been a preferred of mine. He looks cool, however even the most acclaimed story runs (by Ennis, e.g.) have never truly interested me all that much. He’s type of like an over-the-top fierce Batman. however when I heard that in this book they’d not only kill Frank Castle, however zombify him, I had to inspect in.
The Remender Punisher title has been a great checked out overall, although I might do without the skateboard/hacker “Henry,” who is Amadeus Cho to Punisher’s Hulk. Still, I comprehend exactly how difficult it need to be to compose for a character with such grim singlemindedness. The storyline of late has focused on Punisher’s attempts to assassinate Norman Osborn. This, of course, got Frank on Norman’s “list.” as well as in this issue, with the assist of Daken (Wolverine Jr.), Osborn succeeds. All is going according to plan: Daken hacks Punisher into bits as well as the body parts autumn to the rain-soaked nyc streets. however instead of H.A.M.M.E.R. recuperating the Punisher pieces . . . Well, I’ll leave some surprises to the book. Suffice to state that the best Halloween tie-in introduce begins with this one-shot, introducing the next Punisher story arc (beginning with Punisher #11): FrankenCastle.
Awesome.
