Um... Okay, this new author is just completely insane. First of all, he literally stole an idea from Punisher 44 about a broken kid who Punisher might see a few years later. And the plot of this story arc is just completely dumb. Like, a dude kidnapped the Punisher and injected him with some crap that kills him in 6 hours, but to get an antidote the Punisher needs to kill... a really bad-bad dude? I mean, what was the point of that? Frank would do this anyways, if given the information about the guy. Such a concept wasted... Wouldn't it be better to ask him for an innocent death or something. But the conclusion of the issue pretty much shows what would happen in that case... Yeah, it's just really weird. In the previous arc Frank had second thoughts about suicide and checked the dead girl, hoping he was innocent. But in this story he just doesn't care about his own death at all. The artwork is also pretty crappy. It's not really bad, maybe even better than the one from the previous arc, but some faces are comical. And the Punisher looks like a sissy boy. Definitely not the face I got used to. more
