With Norman Osborn in charge, Frank Castle has taken it upon himself to bring the nut-job down. Only things didn’t go so well, and his plan was interrupted. The first issue of the new Punisher series sold out at Diamond (all together now – “But Copies May Still Be Available at Your Local Comic Shop”), prompting Marvel to go back to press.

Better than him looking like a darkhaired Steve Rogers, scruffy is definitely the way to go with Frank.
I havent read a Punisher books for a while but im starting too like the Norman Osbourne thing so i might pick this up. Marvel never really got the hang of the villain thing (Cept with Doom and Kingpin) imho thats mainly the reason i always liked DC better. But im liking the new Osbourne, its like what would happen if the Joker took villainy lessons from Luthor.
This book was fun. I love Rick Remender and the story was solid.
But I hate The Sentry. Not for what he is, but for what he isnt, and this book didnt feel like it was the Sentry that is all those things that he is not.
Does that make sense? I doubt it.
The Sentry is a big cry baby and he didnt feel that way in this book. He felt more like Superman which is just plain sacrilege.
I wont be getting anymore of these
