I really love how this artist portrays Nicky. He was totally forgettable in the first arc. It's also great that Ennis tried to give the character some more backstory. If you make Punisher fight powerless mafia thugs, you better make them have personality to keep it interesting.

Wasn't expecting a Nicky Cavella issue, loved it, and Frank isn't even on it

Okay, that's something I couldn't even imagine. I'm in anticipation, Frank's face speaks volumes on the last page.

Okay, this exact issue was quite cool

I expected a Punisher vs Russian type of fight with the Mongolian psycho, but okay... Maybe it's coming in the next issue.

I don't know, so far it's okay, but nothing here really blows my mind or keeps me interested.

Uh... It's just a short promo comic, but I still expected something else. Not the best introduction of the character, could be much better on many levels. It rather feels like some Daredevil untold story with Jessica as a side character. But anyway, it was at least cool to see the original creators working on the character again after many years.

Babushka means granny. Can't imagine how a mother could call her son that way, but anyway. US comics were pretty much always like this, so I'm not surprised. But anyway, it's not enough to get Fury in the comic to make it cool. Something must finally start to happen in order to make things interesting. There's not even enough good story to entertain a reader, at least one like me. I hope there will be something, so far the arc is much more promising than the previous one and has potential. I just want to see it used and used well. more

Keeping it short, Kitchen Irish sucks when compared to In The Beginning, Frank is much pretty much a side character here and the ´´main`` cast is pretty uninteresting, the artwork leaves a lot to be desired too

Such dialogues were one of the reasons I dropped the Boys. It's just not interesting at all.

Not that bad, but could be much more entertaining. It's a Punisher comic all in all. And it's even MAX...

That was pretty boring and not really important overall. Almost nothing happened here at all... Totally skippable.

Not a bad beginning at all. Well-balanced.

There was potential, but it was totally wasted. For Mark Waid it was a really cheap writing. And the constantly changing artstyle made it even worse. There were some fine Hulk moments, but overall I think like my time was wasted. I'd probably rate it lower if I wasn't a Hulk fan. Even the best parts of the run are just okay at best.

A very poor Hulk run overall
