SuaveStar Posted October 18, 2008 Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 Well after hearing Mike and Des say how good the Punisher:war journal was I got the first trade and thought it was really good, and was wondering if their were any other worthwhile punisher trades worth getting, or easy to get into marvel books in general as I know next to nothing about the villains besides Spider-man's.

Missy Posted October 18, 2008 Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 "The Slavers" is my favorite Punisher story ever. It's a brutal tale about Frank taking on a prostitution ring. Other good ones are "In the Beginning" and "Born." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 18, 2008 Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 Avoid any and all of the Chaykin art run. Slavers is great, as stated, as is most of the Ennis run. The current arc by Gregg Hurwitz is actually pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted October 18, 2008 Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 The Slavers (and the oneshot collection) is the only Punisher by Ennis you need to read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted October 18, 2008 Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 Yeah, "From First to Last" (that one-shot collection) is great, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuaveStar Posted October 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 I'm going to get Punisher Max Volume 5: The Slavers TPB: Slavers Ironically the two ones everyone mentions are the exact same price, I'm going to get this one now and maybe get the other one in a few months.

SuaveStar Posted October 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2008 "Return to Big Nothing". Great Mike Zeck art. Thanks Dan, when I'm next at my comic shop I'll give it a look. When I get the one I ordered I'll post a short thought thing in here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted October 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 Well, I have one gripe with The Punisher TPB I'm reading. Just because you can swear doesn't mean that every character has to swear at least once every page. Other than that, I'm mostly enjoying reading these. Barracuda is a really fun, if it wasn't for all the swearing and random sex scenes. Again just because they could doesn't mean I need reminded of it every second page.

SuaveStar Posted November 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Finished from first to last yesterday. The first story was alright, but nothing special. The second story was awesome and had me hooked right till the end. The third story was very blah to me and was a real let down after the second story.
