Castle has been injected with a slow-acting poison that will kill him in hours -- but don't think he's going to spend them moping around. As long as blood is still pumping through his veins, the Punisher plans on killing as many dirtbags as possible.

Feb 17, 2009Heidegger, who took Kierkegaard's philosophy further, comes even closer to describing The Punisher: since we can never hope to understand why we're here, if there's even anything to understand, the individual should choose a goal and pursue it wholeheartedly, despite the certainty of death and the meaninglessness of action. That's sure the Punisher as I conceived him: a man who knows he's going to die and who knows in the big picture his actions will count for nothing, but who pursues his course because this is what he has chosen to do.This issue, and the story arc as a whole, sharpens that notion to a fine point. And then stabs you through the eye with it. Overall, this was a great read. Swierczynski gets the balance of violence, black humour and characterization just right. Ennis would be proud.

It's so weird... I don't know why, but everything here feels just wrong... Also the motivation of Frank is comical... "oh... the trip back to NY takes 90 minutes... just a waste of my time... okay, I'll kill the guy they wanted me to kill, but I didn't want to be an errand boy... but since I don't have much time and I have no one left to kill here, I might as well check this dude." Congratulations, it's literally an example of how not to write comics.
