Lately, his fans have come to, troublingly, include police officers who have traditionally hunted him.
But is he right?
And if so, why does a comic book serial killer have so many fans?
Each of these famous serial killers is a predator who hunts a particular throw in of prey.
The Punisher most certainly fits the bill.
Like all serial killers, he has a pattern; in the Punisher’s case, he targets criminals.
It’s worth remembering that the Punisher was never created to be a hero.
But what is it that makes this “uncompromising death dealer” resonate with so many comic book fans?
Frank Castle may be a serial killer, but he isn’tjusta serial killer.
The Punisher ditches even this cloak of civilization, abandoning all restraint.
It’s interesting to note that Marvel’s portrayal of the Punisher has gradually changed over time.
It’s hard not to argue that the Punisher has gone mainstream.
