The whole issue just left me scratching my head, really. Why did DC feel the need to launch this new series? Is there a demand for Punisher rip-offs amongst DC fans? Did Wolfman really feel that strongly about exploring this concept? It sure doesn't feel like it.

Rick Leonardi's art, while traditionally reliable on superhero books, seems incredibly out of place on a story that wants to be crime fiction. Leonardi tries to go for a dark, gritty, atmospheric look, but falls short. The one redeeming quality to this book is Walt Simonson's dynamic cover. If you can justify paying $3.00 for that cover, then I say go for it, otherwise please vote with your dollar, avoid this book like the plague,and let DC know you expect better than this.
