Summary: This book will make you forget Kevin Smith's Daredevil story
Comment: Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon restore the Punisher to the one man war on crime charcater he is, in this paperback that reprints the 12 issue run that Ennis and Dillon wrote for the Marvel Knights books. This is not kiddie literature, this is a very adult style of writing that gives new life to a character many Marvel fans thought was over and done with. It's for fans of the Godfather films and would make an interesting movie, if dones on a big budget. But please remember, this is for adults only, not kids.

Summary: Top writer brings Punisher back from the dead!
Comment: For a while, 'The Punisher' was a character in Marvel comics that really hit rock bottom with fans. In the 80's, the character had gained prominance with it's harsh, violent gun-toting look at vigilantism, but in the late 90's things weren't so good. Bounced from one boring, out-dated story to the next, Punisher was wasted.
That was until Marvel decided to reboot the series and allow the awesome team of writer Garth Ennis and artist Steve Dillon to helm a 12 issue mini-series. The two had worked on amazing titles like Hitman and the acclaimed Preacher series, and just as Marvel had hoped, brought the same magic to the pages of 'The Punisher'.
Collected in this trade paperback, this 12 issue story is a fun, exciting story that reminds fans why they so enjoyed the original Punisher stories to begin with.

Summary: No holds barred fun
Comment: The creative team behind the return of the Punisher, Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon, were also responsible for the entire 66-issue run of the best comic of recent years, Preacher. This graphic novel, which collects all twelve of the Punisher series from 2000 - 2001, almost matches the standard set with Preacher. Never a dull moment, Ennis seems to really enjoy writing the Punisher (how many comic book writers give you that impression?). Dillon's artwork is crisp, clear and entirely suited to the character. The gruesome but highly entertaining treatment of the Punisher's main foe in the story, crime boss Ma Gnucci, is one of the best examples of comic writing I've read. Don't expect subtelty - it's fun, there's humour that no previous Punisher comic even approached and it paid off, with the comic never out of the monthly top ten best sellers. Ennis and Dillon returned to produce an on-going Punisher series in June 2001, with Ennis scheduled to write the first six editions. Whoever follows him has a high standard to maintain.
