All-Comic - Jeremy Matcho
Jun 04, 2018This is the most exciting the Punisher has been in a long while. Seeing Frank going overseas and taking out terrible world leaders is great. Frank is showing that he can be the hero that people need. That is until the actual heroes, Carol Danvers and her crew get a hold of him. Vigilante justice doesn't seem to have much of a place in the Marvel universe these days, but don't tell that to Frank Castle. Read Full Review

Jun 02, 2018Guiu Vilanova and Lee Loughridge are part of the success of this comic/ run. Guiu's dynamic panels during the battle against heroes were really good. The way that Loughridge set the tone of this comic was superb. Read Full Review

Bleeding Cool - Joshua Davison
May 31, 2018Punisher #225 is a hard-bitten and grueling installment of the ever-bloody title. While it does get a bit uncomfortable in the middle portion, the first and last sequences of the book are compelling enough to get past any queasiness at the wanton brutality of it all. This one earns a recommendation. Check it out. Read Full Review

May 30, 2018It's not necessarily the best outing for every character involved -- namely in the fact that Vilanova's art style doesn't work for every single Avengers member -- but the issue is a pretty solid read overall. Read Full Review

I really like the concept of the heroes coming for Frank and him showing off his skill. He clearly is going into somewhat villain territory so it is very interesting seeing the dynamics of that process. The art remains solid and I am looking forward to the conclusion.

The Punisher holds his own against a ridiculously huge roster of heroes in a big fight that manages not to embarrass anybody involved. Things get a little sillier as he keeps ahead of the heroes' magic nano-tracker long enough to disable it, then effortlessly grabs Nick Fury Jr. for a nice gritty conversation. Net result: Frank's going Hydra-hunting. Good dialogue and pacing, but the art's underwhelming to me and the whole nanotech tracking deal feels like a plot hole. Frank's also still running a bit high on viciousness.
