Punisher

Marvel Cosmic Universe by Donny Cates Omnibus | Nothing the Matter with the Stars

January 2, 2021 by John Galati 1 Comment

Donny Cates is inarguably one of the hottest writers of this generation. His style is a sort of love letter to new and beautifully strange beginnings:

  • 60s Marvel, the company’s first rebirth full of hope and wonder
  • 90s Marvel, where Cates’ love for the medium seems to begin (or at least cement)
  • And Cates’ own, personal story, with all of its second chances

These elements return again and again in Cates’ work. They’re also why he’s such a natural fit for Marvel’s cosmic lines; his voice is so big, he really benefits from that scale. It seems only right he have a tome to match: Marvel Cosmic Universe by Donny Cates. [Read more…] about Marvel Cosmic Universe by Donny Cates Omnibus | Nothing the Matter with the Stars

The 3 Punisher Graphic Novels Every Fan Should Start With

January 19, 2019 by John Galati 1 Comment

As I’ve said before, the Punisher is made up of a simple formula: a soldier comes home from war to become a family man; a family man loses everything; a man who’s lost everything becomes a soldier and starts a war.

Frank Castle is just a normal man whose only superpower is murder. And yet from this simplicity comes so much depth. [Read more…] about The 3 Punisher Graphic Novels Every Fan Should Start With

A Bullet For Every Occasion: The Best Punisher Graphic Novels

January 17, 2019 by John Galati Leave a Comment

The Punisher turns 45 this year and is celebrating with a second season of his Netflix show. But if you’re curious about Marvel’s favorite murderer, there’s at least four other incarnations that are every bit as awesome as Jon Bernthal, with some of them even bigger and badder than our paltry reality could ever allow. Let’s take a look at the best of the Punisher. [Read more…] about A Bullet For Every Occasion: The Best Punisher Graphic Novels

Marvel Netflix Punisher Review!

March 3, 2018 by Dave 2 Comments

In some very unexpected ways, I’ve found myself appreciating Punisher more and more after seeing and thinking about Black Panther.

While the entries in the MCU are very different, I repeatedly found myself extending praise toward Black Panther for approaches the Punisher mirrors. Most notably, Black Panther is the rare Marvel Cinematic Universe film that can combine sheer fantasy entertainment with very real debate around relatable, complex human issues.
