    wacky... megatak was apparently a casualty of the first videogame boom.. heh.. mirage was a 2nd rate Mysterio (what, he wasn't available?).. and Turner D was a one-note 1960s Batman villain escaped into the marvel U.. I hope that Frank has fun beating them down..

    Very fun little previews... you know Frank is gonna lay waste to all of them, but they're making these Z-listers sound to be pretty damn serious in these previews, in a "how the hell can one man with a bunch of fancy guns take all these guys down?" kind of way. Very effective promo, if nothing else... 'course, I'd be buying the book (and loving it) without it...

    Be afraid, Frank Castle, be very afraid.
    I seriously miss Captain Mar-Vell.

    Are these guys resurrected long term, or just as cannon fodder for Punisher?

    Looking at that PUNISHER #5 layout, clearly TDC is a replacement.

    I'm guessing Miracle Man, the only person in the spread who looks remotely like Turner, doesn't come back after all...?

    There've gotta be plans for a few of them, at least. They brought back 17 and are only using 12 here, so 5 of them may be getting usage elsewhere as part of The Hood's gang.

    TURNER. D. CENTURY. OMG.

    I'd love to know how he wound up in line for a ressurection. This is the guy who rode around on a little flying push bike with a doll on the back seat (As he had no friends, partners or any fucking dignity whatsoever) and who was raised by that terrifying little midget in a bath robe and a motor-chair right?

    Never heard of Turner D. Century. He sounds very cool.

    They had me at Turner D. Century. I hope he can keep a few of these guys alive they make the Marvel Universe a richer place. I really loved Death Adder as a kid, and I always loved Birdman's design. I also love the redesigns of the Human Fly and Basilisk. And I effing love the Hijacker's upgrade, that helmet is killer.

    Each villain in it's place and in it's way, Turdner D. Century is definitely the type of villain who requires henchmen.

    I remember (and liked) Mirage from an old Marvel Tales issue that I read. Now that I look at him, his costume/gimmicks remind me a bit of Mirror Master!

    I don't read Punisher, but I'll get this arc in tpb, it sounds so good.

    ^Um, just getting here, and I have to ask, where's the fifth and final part of the rooster of the Hood's Punisher Hit Squad ?

    I don't think they went through all the trouble of redesigning these guys to have Frank lay them to waste in the span of the next six issues. Some of them are sure to stay. I personally hope to see Lascivious and Leetha stick around.

    And, of course, Turner D. Century, so he can show up in an issue of Deadpool.
