  1. Does Frank have his fingers up Dakan’s nose?

  2. Yeah, I was going to buy start buying this title until I heard about the cross over.

  3. "Got your nose!"

  4. This is a fail. Shadowland, which is in current continuity, has a normal punisher at the same time this stupid shit is going on…WTF Marvel? BTW, Shadowland is seriously awesome.

  5. @brassai2003 I’m willing to bet that whatever book stars the character is the book you should look to for continuity. Shadowland seems like it didn’t even try to fit into current punisher continuity. That to me is a bigger problem. This book has it right.

  6. @RoiVampire No doubt!

  7. @brassai2003 Usually series are planned so far in advance that they can’t do anything about it. For example in the Young Avengers Crossover thats happening at the minute they have various characters in different costumes/situations etc because when they started drawing it they had no idea what was going to come.

    Obviously Shadowrun is in the wrong here, they really must have started it early because Frank has been like this for almost half a year.

    Back on topic, Daken slicing up Frank back in Punisher: The List was one of the most moving and brutal things I have ever read in the Marvel U – I have been looking forward to this for a very long time. I trust Remender, he is quickly becoming one of my favourite writers.

  8. I didn’t bother picking up DW, simply because I hate the writers on it and the character, still pick up Frank though.

  9. @brassai2003 "Regular" Frank’s coming back with issue #21. The end of the FrankenCastle era:

  10. Oh god this was fantastic. Remender/Moore make the Dark Wolverine team look like fucking amateurs.

  11. I loved this issue. I’ve been wanting to see DW get his ass kicked for months. I am becoming a huge fan of Remenders writing.

  12. True that man.

    I also just loved seeing Daken get his ass handed to him. 

  13. Ugh. Can’t believe I had to buy an issue of Dark Wolverine for this….

  14. I didn’t buy the dark wolverine and didn’t feel like I missed anything. Daken and Frank fighting to the death. That’s all you need to know really.

  15. This was crazy awesome! Almost makes me want to check out Dark Wolverine for the next part… almost.
