This series is fantastic so far, the artwork is especially unique. Especially looking forward to the Omega Effect crossover.

So, does the Punisher do all his own screen printing?

This is a fantastic series so far.

@ CBMfan

That "bitch" is the wife a dead marine. She's trying to get revenge on the people that killed him and her family. Much like Frank, she's waging a one-woman war against crime.

This just happens to be the first time they run into each other, as they're both on the trail of the same people.

Why does he look so young? Am I missing something? Isn't he around 50?

I'm in love with Rucka's run on Punisher. He has really built Frank a great supporting cast. I cant believe more people arent picking this up.

I prefer Garth Ennis' MAX series. Punisher was so much better when he lived in his own universe.

@ sober

Ennis' MAX series was the quintessential Punisher. Nothing will EVER be that good again when it comes to Punisher. BUT, this is pretty damn good as well. Easily the best Punisher comic since Ennis' MAX run. :)

@grifter he looks that young. because he was killed and resurrected was a frankenstein monster for a while.but was healed by a supernatural artifact call the bloodstone. So he now has the physical body equivalent of a man in his early to mid thirty's.
