Thoughts on the new run so far? I quite like it, nice to have a more grounded street level back to basics Punisher.
>>152971764Couldn’t tell ya. It’s sold out in my local comic book shop everytime I go looking for it
>>152971764Frank seems bit too feral but that might be a part of the story with him having kingpin sissy hypno brainchip scar on the brain
Is there any point in reading any Punisher run not written by Garth Ennis?
>>152971764I refuse to touch a punisher comic until they out and out, blatantly make Aaron’s bullshit non-canon. Pun’s wife never having been resurrected (let alone berating him and taking half his shit) and him never having worked for the hand. Simple as. Until then I will not be acknowledging this garbage at all.
>>152972493Sure, read the baron run and his work on war journal. War zone with JRJR on art was solid.
>>152971876Obvious shill post. For one thing, as someone who goes in every Wednesday, it’s always at my shop. For another this has nothing to do with your faggot ass being able to read and assess the comic.
>>152971764I mean it’s very middle of the road. Inoffensive but also just playing the hits to the point of being kinda boring. Like if Jeremy Adams was writing punisher. There’s this weird inability for modern big 2 books to really be any good at all. It’s either overly safe, derivative boring shit like this or waid’s recent DC comics and then there’s offensive woke nonsense. There’s very few actually good comics.I will say Im somewhat in this camp too: >>152973246That shit leaves a bad taste in the mouth and not having it referenced means it happened and can be sprung on you at any time, just kinda leads you to keeping things at arms length. A similar boat as Slott bringing the real Jon Kent back when you know it’ll just be undone in a month or two. Only in that case it’s also Slott writing so you can just avoid it completely.
>>152971764It's alright, but I don't ever give a shit about jigsaw plots
>>152973246Don't forget he worked for Hydra too.
>>152973782The companies have decided to never give closure or clarification of any kind. That any every other run can piss off or invite back whichever reader group they want. It makes for horrible continuity and worse comics but when people like Jim Lee and Brevoort (cebulski is obviously powerless) in charge that’s what you get.
>>152972493The Ennis MAX run is my favorite. I like some of what Chuck Dixon has written in the 80s and 90s.
>>152975326He wrote that WILD ass mini where frank does coke and goes to space right? Or was that baron?
>>152975472There was a one-shot called G-Force where Frank went to space, but I don't know who wrote it.
>>152975555Thats the one Im thinking of. Googles tells me Mike baron
>>152973375Anon I’ve literally only been able to pick up issue 5, so how can I give my thoughts on a run I can’t even read
How did Frank get out of Weirdworld?
>>152975991Who knows or cares, better to forget that shit ass run Aaron gave us. Also these captchas are horrible.
>>152973246Frank should have just killed them and kept the beast. If an evil organization brings your dead back just treat it like pet semetary and waste them. But if he was keen on the idea anyway why not argue to get his kids back too?
>>152975973That was a mini this is an ongoing you retard. This just further confirms you don’t actually read or buy comics. Why are you on /co/ other than to shill garbage?
>>152976146If you simply “forget it” it still happened and WILL be brought up again. They need to address it whether to confirm it happened or relegate it to some fever dream that never occurred.
>>152976146Aaron's run wasn't even bad
>>152971764So far so good. The art is really nice, the story is appropriately dark and brutal.I wish the Punisher would have killed more people by this point, but I assume that's coming
>>152976274What am I shilling exactly? And you’re half right, I don’t usually read marvel comics because marvel is gay and retarded, and 99% of their books suck. But there’s a few I’m interested in like punisher and hulk. The problem is they’re always sold out in my area
>>152976319His run ten years ago? It’s not great, personally I don’t like it but it isn’t offensive. His recent run? Kill yourself if you think it’s anything but abject dogshit.
>>152976348How is it bad?
>>152976347You obviously don’t even know what you’re looking for so I don’t believe you’ve been to a shop in years. Youre just trying to push this narrative that it’s selling well. It isn’t.
>>152976359Anon it’s a complete and utter repudiation of the character from top to bottom. I genuinely don’t even know how you can ask this. The only person who could enjoy that is someone who hates that the character even exists. You can’t even say it’s a deconstruction, because those tend to work by pointing out flaws and limitations and then building the character back up. Aaron’s latest run is basically him shitting on fenwk and Le ebil meanie chuds before killing him off. There is no message to be gleaned from that, no point to the story at all other than “this character is problematic, doesnt work, his fans are cancer and it should all be cancelled and killed.”
>>152976415You're only talking in hyperbole
>>152976523No no be specific, how am I wrong about that? Address what I said. Quote the portion of my reply you take umbrage with and then reply to it with specificity.
>>152976537You're not deflecting my simple question with another question. It's not a trick, anon. I'm not even calling you wrong, I'm asking you to actually form a coherent argument that doesn't sound like broad strokes and regurgitated comments people on twitter who dont read comics say. So let's start over, use specific examples, construct, and explain please
>>152971764Solid. Palmetti has been doing good Punisher work because The World to Come was also a decent read. Of course faggots like>>152972493will whine and complain about it not being MAX
>>152971764meh
>>152976560>i refuse to actually engage No, youre just deflecting. I was quite specific.
