I'm conflicted about enjoying The Punisher. On one hand, he mercilessly kills criminals with no trial in horribly brutal ways, which I am against. On the other hand, Garth Ennis' run on this book has been fucking amazing. Seriously, this is one of the books I look forward to every month, and it sucks that he's leaving in a few issues. Garth Ennis is known for writing The Preacher, a comic I read the first trade of and liked, but then never finished reading because I had a job or something. It kicked a lot of ass, so this was a great fit for him. This was the first explicit content Punisher ever, and I have to say there are a lot of f-bombs (by which I mean the word fuck) and a lot of people getting graphically murdered, but the Punisher is a pretty amazing badass in it so why don't you buy it and tell 'em Glenn sent you.RATING: 82%

I liked his older brother, Big Punisher. I was so sad when he died.
For a second, I thought The Punisher was one of your top 100 flicks of all time. However, it was better than the Capt. America disaster.

I've never liked the Punisher very much. I mean, he's the original anti-hero, but I've always found the people who love punisher are the same douchebags who only read X-men for Wolverine. Basically, I bitch about everything.
I don't really care about the Punisher or Wolverine too much, but Garth Ennis has been consistently publishing what might be the best monthly book out there. How can I argue with that?
