[andy khouri]

Civil War may be over, but the Punisher’s war against crime in the Marvel U continues in the pages of “Punisher War Journal.” We spoke with writer Matt Fraction about the book. Plus, previews of issues #5 & 6.

Would the Punisher of BORN have respect for a Capt. America?

I think not.

Quite the opposite actually.

Fraction lost his marbles on this one

That was after a couple of years in-country.


Would the Punisher of Big Nothing idolize Cap? Since Big Nothing is actually from the time period we are talking about? I'm thinking yes.

But, you know, because it doesn't apply to one specific work, then of course, Fraction's a total moron.

I'm liking it and PWJ has been a good time. I have no problem having both Punisher series.

But dude that is the most adult sig I've ever read. Ennis has some brain on him, to come up with those little nuggets of goodness.

I have enjoyed the work thusfar. I think the reader has to have the hardcore Ennis Punisher and the mainstream PWJ brings a new audience (if you can call it new) to Punisher stories.

You know... I'm not sure about this title... I enjoyed the Civil War tie ins but issue 4 was kind of a disappointment... I think it might be off the list...
