Punisher #14

Written By: Rick Remender

Artwork By: Daniel Brereton & Tony Moore

Published By: Marvel Comics


***SPOILER ALERT***

Starting in Dark Reign The List: Punisher, in which Norman Osborn, the current head honcho in the Marvel Universe, comes up with a list of people he wants dead, sends Wolverine's demented son Daken to kill Frank Castle, The Punisher.

In a bloody fight on a rooftop, Daken literally tears The Punisher to pieces, dropping the remains of Frank Castle in a darkened, disgusting alley way.

Starting in Punisher #11, we learn that the Legion of Monsters has gathered the remains of Frank Castle and has been able to bring him back to life. But Frank is not exactly alive or human, but a true Frankenstien, in this case a FrankenCastle.
(Haha, get the play on words there? I didn't come up with it.)

In the next two issues we learn that Frank is not happy at all having been brought back to life, there is a monster hunter who has an entire army of monster hunters that wants to destroy the Legion of Monsters, and the Legion of Monsters are having a really tough time trying to convince Frank to help them.

***END SPOILER***

In Punisher #14, Frank learns who this head monster hunter is and there is a little twist to the guy.

Having read around the internet and the letters to the editor in the Punisher comics, I know that some people are not happy with the direction that the Punisher is being taken.

I, for one, think it is great. I think I have always liked the idea of reading horror comics and now the new Punisher arc allows me to do so.

I am very interested to see how they are going to bring Frank Castle back, or even if they are!

Punisher #14: 9 out of 10
