Sounds good and sounds like it will be better than GEs.

That was disappointing. I did not read the book but the wiki told me the book version of Robert Neville was legend because the vampire people formed their own society and he was their boogie man, their legendary monster that lived in the sunlight and killed them when they slept. I thought that premise was way more cool and was wondering how they'd pull that off in a Punisher book.

Well, no one ever wants to fully embrace Richard Mathieson's book right down to the ending & it's implications. None of the feature films have; they all want it to be about one man making a difference and the hope of change. Seems this won't be different.

So Part 1 is out starts off with him hunting Deadpool, Frank says its the 33rd time he's gonna kill him.

Still, the original ending is so much better

I agree, it was a really interesting, original, and effective end passage in that book. It's disappointing that they had to go for the happier ending in the recent movie - for me it finished off what was already a movie full of plot holes. The Last Man on Earth is a bit closer in that respect but still doesn't follow the book exactly and is a bit creaky.

I hope this Punisher series stays more serious than the Zombies stuff. Although the Lente Zombies stuff is interesting, I wish we had seen more of the Marvel Zombies as they orginally portrayed - as a true horror concept and with that darker, more realistic art. Without all the jokiness and increasingly over the top cosmic stuff that started getting into it later.

Just finished reading the last issue. Kinda sad, but I enjoyed it.
