Default Daredevil #183 and Punisher Dark Reign #5 - Same Cover???

Had these two comics on my desk and suddenly realised the covers were identical.

Presumably there was a reason Marvel decided to make the cover of Punisher Dark Reign #5 the same as the old Daredevil comic??

That's kind of the point. All issues of the first arc had covers that were homages to other classic Punisher covers. Didn't issue #1 give that away?

You guys are just having so much fun I can't bear to break it to you...
OOOH the heck with it, it'll lose it appeal soon anyway

It isn't something new to recycle cover styles that are fit or they see fit to be reused, sometimes a company uses a cover used by a different one, but the latter is mainly for joke reason
