as far as i remember the punisher is basically a violent anarchist vigilante who kills anyone he deems a criminal, including corrupt politicians and cops. so basically they missed the point of the character.
Yeah, his targets are usually so vile that nobody questions his methods.
For anybody that wants to be the punisher though… like honestly if the punisher has gotten pulled into a problem he’s less an angel descending from heaven and more of a fire burning through absolutely everything.
Like everything needs to be in a state of fucked for him to get involved. Absolutely fucked. Isn’t it better to avoid that in the first place?
They are very different, one is completely self serving and the other is self sacrificing. They both kill, one indescriminately and the other very descriminately. Punisher also doesnt seem to enjoy it, but feels it is what needs to be done.
Funnily enough, there was a multiverse thing called 2099 with a bunch of characters in it but like cyberfuture or whatever, had Spiderman 2099, Hulk 2099, and Punisher 2099, among others. Punisher 2099 kills (and tortures) criminals, absolutely refuses to fire on cops, and when Doom 2099 takes over the country, becomes his flunky and starts using thought crime devices.
Yes. Still have it somewhere. And did not all the 2099 comics have that in that month? I lived 2 hrs drive outside Oslo (Norway), where the one comic book store was located, and reliably getting comics each month back then was at times just dumb luck.
I haven’t seen the show and barely know the Marvel character, but even as a violent killer/vigilante, he’s far from the monster Homelander is, right ?
Or did they make him racist/homophobic/patriot/etc to appeal the “alt-right” viewers ?
He is none of those things, and fairly antithetical to them, so alt-right viewers love him anyways because they have no media literacy

In the new Daredevil, Punisher is captured by MAGA cops (effectively) and he just scoffs at them.

The issue Doom takes over is marvelous. The US cabinet gets purged of the self serving criminals. Including an alien maskerading as a human.
