Marvel unveils the Big Shots

Posted on by

Marvel has announced a brand new initiative called Big Shots that spotlights three ongoing series.  The first out of the gate is Moon Knight, which arrives in May.

…the Eisner Award-winning team of Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev as they delve deep into the psyche of the titular hero and embark on his greatest adventure yet.

Following that, the Punisher returns with a new number one issue that, according to the press release, “will have everybody talking.” I’m guessing you can fill in the rest of that thought.

Finally, Daredevil  (I thought he died a couple of months ago) returns, looking for his place in the world.

REVIEW: Franken-Castle #21

Or – “What Happens When An Irreversible Story Needs To Be Reversed…”

The death of Frank Castle at the hands of Daken in the latter days of Dark Reign led to one of thoese stories that has everyone divided on it’s merits.  Like Morrison’s X-Men, Miller’s All-Star Batman & Robin, and pretty much everything that Mark Millar has written since he left The Flash, the arguments about this one range far and wide from those who love seeing something new in the Punisher-verse to those who can’t stand seeing a realistic character in such a ridiculous circumstance.  No matter where you stand, though, you have to admit that people are talking about the Punisher, and no news is bad news…

PunisherMax #1 goes back to print, too

Posted on by

Marvel also announced PunisherMax #1 sold out at the distributor level (although you may be able to pick up a copy at your local store), prompting the company to send the issue back to press with a second issue.

The Rigoletto Family’s got a new bodyguard. He’s not just another schlub with a taste for the big time though. No, Wilson Fisk may just have what it takes to make himself Kingpin. That’s if I don’t take him out first.

The second printing of PunisherMax #1 will hit stores on December 23, 2009, with a cover price of $3.99.
