PUNISHER appreciation thread

I just bought a Secret Wars 1-12 bundle the other week which I finished reading a few nights ago and geez that was tough to make it through.  Maybe if I would have read one issue a month over the span of a year as originally intended it would have been more bearable.  I enjoyed the Zeck artwork but I can safely say I am never reading that again.

On the other hand, I have also got a few older PWJ's and regular series issues to complete my runs and I must say that those were very readable and very plausible as far as comics go.  In particular I liked the Bushwacker story from PWJ 12 and 13 and I love the regular series issues 8, 9, and 10 (I also like DD 257 as well.).  There was a lot of nostalgia involved for me in those issues and I am happy to say that, at least to me, those stories have aged very well.  The next thing I am going to buy is that Marvel Premiere 2 where it has the origin of the Punisher in it.  I am really wanting to read that one.  Is there anyone who can vouch for it being good or not?

I believe you mean Marvel Preview #2 --I'm biased, but yes a must have for Punisher collections.  The artwork and wording appears a little dated nowadays, (like older James Bond movies)...but still Classic. (thumbsu

Well since I'm looking at some of my sketch covers I thought I'd share one of my favorites from Bill and Linda Reinhold also :bigsmile:

Just picked up 9.8 copies of Marvel Super Action, Savage Action #1 and the Opena variant both US and French.  Can't wait to get them!  Now to upgrade my ASM 129 9.0 wp to a 9.6 wp.

Awesome! I look forward to seeing them. Best of luck on the 9.6 upgrade. I think 9.6 at the current price is a solid investment.
