PUNISHER STORYTIME
All this year I'll be storytiming Punisher comics. Most of the stories I'll be posting will be pre-Ennis material, but there will definitely be at least a few issues from the Ennis era at some point. Expect storytimes at least once per week.
Last week we read some of the best Punisher comics of the early 90s by Baron and Dixon. This week we continue where we left off with the next 3 issues, which includes a double sized issue and one of the most amazing Punisher covers ever.
We start things off with a rare cover by Michael Golden, a guy who needs to draw way more fucking comics because his work is fucking mind-blowingly awesome.
This is...
PUNISHER #50-52
STORYTIMEAlso, I have now posted so many storytimes that the links to the old ones no longer all fit into the OP. Before long I'm gonna need multiple posts to post all of them. Links will be in the next post of course.

Letters page
And that's that.
>>92775225
Frank Castle gets a job with Child Services miniseries when?
>>92775225
Just realised Dennis Lehane lifted this plotline for Gone Baby Gone.
>>92773052
Reporting in.
>>92773948
>>92773922
Has this version of the punisher shown up anywhere else?
>>92774077
I wondered how much of a fuck Frank gave about illegal immigration, and I guess this issue answers it.

>help me!
>why?
Love it
bumping to read
>>92775336
>people actually printed negative criticism towards them back in the day
What a time it was.
>>92772989
>Michael Golden cover
That cover is excellent.
What are they in though? Is that sewage?! It literally looks like they're in shit!
>>92773015
That is a beautiful page.
>>92773015
>between sixty and sixty-five... I'm not sure...
FOR FUCK'S SAKE!
>>92773496
That is FUCKED. DAMN!
>>92773496
Well I genuinely did not see THAT coming.
>>92773524
FUCK
>>92773674
For a fight scene where a guy uses a fucking YO-YO, this is incredibly brutally high impact. Really well done. I still maintain that Baron wrote the best fight scenes of any western comics writer ever.
>>92773696
This is a REALLY nice page.
>>92773723
>>92773754
>>92773782
Whoa. Did they ALL die?
>>92773848
Who's Marc McLaurin?
>>92773873
>>92773922
>>92773948
This is hilariously ridiculous. LOL!
>>92773948
What TV show is he talking about?
>>92773901
>Aunt May writes Bullpen Bulletins
This is a beautiful thing.
>>92774021
>another Michael Golden cover
This is also really nice.
>>92774102
>chopsticks in the eyes
SHIT! Fucking BRUTAL moment!
>>92774050
>>92774077
>>92774102

>>92774152
Who the fuck drew this? I'm not sure if I like it or not, but it's definitely different than any other Punisher art that I recognize.
>>92774382
Imagine walking into a warehouse and seeing that.
>>92774536
Always LOVE seeing old letters pages in old comics.
>>92774560
Nice pin-up.
>>92774606
Is this the only time they ever did Bullpen Bulletins as a comic?
>>92774606
>BACK on CRACK
wat.
>>92774627
This is one of the best covers ever. LOL.
>>92774627
Any chance this was inspired by THIS?
>>92774678
That is messed up.
>>92774942
>>92774974
>Punisher Motorcycle
They need to bring back themed superhero vehicles.
>>92774974
Does that say "Christy Canyon" on the wall?! As in the pornstar?!
>>92775063
That's REALLY fucking slick how the rails are used to frame the panel.
>>92775142
>COOLOMETER
Was this the first time they did this?
>>92775142
>COOLEST NAME FOR BABY GIRLS: Olivia
This may be true.
>>92775142
The majority of that CoolOMeter is actually true.
>>92775142
This is the Mary Jane poster that they're talking about.
>>92775336
>someone didn't like the Chuck Dixon fill-in issue
>>92779093
It's obviously just the guy being an idiot and exaggerating his story. Still pretty funny though.
>>92780936
Yeah, that's an awesome scene.
>>92782189
Yeah, Marvel would NEVER do that now.
>>92783773
You dodged a bullet. Those things would be dull as fuck.
>>92779415
I think his stance on shit is basically "if it's not mob/gang/drug/corruption related then he just ignores it".
