Oh shit. You know how Punisher 3 ended, I just got some previews of Punisher issue 4. I think Punishers speed is underated but when you consider what position he was in and how many guys where firing at him, what seemed to have happened next is impressive.

OH MY GOD!!
In the next arc, what happens is, since the Hood is a general of a supervillain army, he assembles an entire platoon dedicated to hunting and killing Frank. They're all established characters and I think people are going to be really surprised by who they are. These characters haven't been seen in awhile,†Remender continued. “The second arc will establish them as a bunch of characters who are very, very motivated to see Frank Castle die. We're basically setting up a new rogues' gallery for Frank; a team of supervillains who really want to see him go down.â€
Even with the Hood and an army of supervillains out to take him down, readers shouldn't count the Punisher out yet. Frank Castle has many things going for him, and his enemies don't truly appreciate just how cunning and resourceful an opponent the Punisher is. “Not only that, but Henry has an ace in a hole that the Punisher has never had before. Henry has got a hack into a cold war era S.H.I.E.L.D satellite which he can use to tell Frank the lay of the land; where he is at, where other people are, and what's coming for him,†Remender revealed. “He's an eye in the sky for Frank. He's running the mission for him.
“And as we saw in issue #2, Henry lead Frank to a treasure chest full of Marvel Universe weaponry. So now he's got a canister full of Pym Particles, Ant-Man's helmet, Blacklash's whip, a wall full of weaponry from Cable and the Skrulls, a glove from the Titanium Man armor and a lot of other powerful and crazy things. So armory-wise, Frank has now stepped up because Frank is only limited by the equipment he has. And now we've given him one hell of an armory and it really escalates and ups the ante on what he can accomplish.
It was [editor] Axel Alonso who said, 'If you really want to get you head around Frank Castle, he's the guy who, if Galactus was descending into the city, would only be thinking about needing a bigger gun.' I always liked that quote. That was what ultimately gave me the idea to give Frank that bigger gun.â€

Looks like the getting my arse kicked by DD days are OVAH!
Heres some more
In the past, The Punisher has operated on the fringe of the Marvel Universe, but Frank Castle's guerrilla campaign against Norman Osborn and his Cabal will keep him on the frontlines. “There's too much big stuff happening. So Frank can't worry about street crime as much as he did. He's thinking in terms of a bullet in the head of somebody like Osborn saves 10,000 lives as opposed to say the two people he can save from being mugged in an alley,” Remender said. “So as these opportunities present themselves and Frank's targets start becoming bigger and bigger, he sort of starts playing the role of murderous Batman. He becomes a more entrenched and visible figure in the Marvel U. I don't think we've ever seen Frank Castle play a bigger role in the Marvel Universe. And just wait till around issues #10-12 when you start seeing what Frank achieves and what's going to happen. It's a good time if you enjoy reading stories about the Punisher.”
This is going to be so ****ing awesome, hell I wont even need to do a respect thread at this rate.

What? You mean this guy? I think it's Wilson Fisk.
Not a mistake The Kingpin would've made.

C'mon man, villains LOVE referring to themselves in third person. Not to mention that he's abandoned Kinpin persona, tried to forget about his previous life and so on. Plus he's wearing the same jacket.

Villains like Dr Doom maybe, but even then there are lots of times when he doesnt.

I think you might have a point there about the persona thingy, but hes not waering the same shirt. That guy looks a little overweight in that issue KP is actually supposed to be muscle, that guy in Pun just looks fat.

Remender made Fisk refer to himself in third person so the readers would feel confused and compelled to read Brubaker's Daredevil. In DD #117 we see that he's back in NYC.

He had to change the shirt, 'cause it was covered in way too much blood. That jacket on the other hand is his new look, writers don't want to get rid of it. Classic Kingpin used to wear the white suit, current one has that dark jacket...
And Kingpin always had a big belly! 🤣
Also I can't imagine Parker playing chess with Microchip.
The dialogue doesn't read as how Wilson Fisk normally talks- generally he sounds a bit more pompous and a bit more intelligent.
And the Kingpin isn't drawn with just a belly like that- the guy looks too small to be him.
On the other hand, referring to himself as "The Kingpin" is easily explained: he's back in NYC just to take out the hand, not to become the Kingpin of crime again. So he could be referring to "the Kingpin" not as a person, but as a title he once had that the Hood wants to seize for himself. Plus, Microchip's dead.

frank kills those who need to be killed (as he sees it). if that's really hypocritical than what about Captain America antics during civil war? wasn't what he was doing against the law?
How can you not see a difference between civil disobedience against a law that you believe to be unjust and unconstitutional and slaughtering people?
