Latest Reviews
Punisher War Journal #19: Jigsaw Part 2 of 6
Is Frank Castle Punisher here? I think not...the characterization is totally off. I have never ever ever seen Frank act this way...Faction is totally off on the writing here...all the while spinning a decent story that would work for any other vigilante with guns.
The art is totally horrid and makes me want to puke all over it to give it some style and pizazz. Frank doesn't really look like Frank...he looks like a chubby pizza delivery man in a trench coat.
Also when has Frank EVER been so sloppy as to have a routine...as long as he has been on the run and with as many enemies. Like I said the fight scene was pretty good, but it is all wrong.
