Jul 01, 2026The Punisher #6 kicks off the next chapter in this ongoing run with a good setup issue. The introduction of the new threat, along with the tie ins that have brought us here make this issue a great continuation for readers of the series, well also serving as a great jump on point for new readers. The lack of the over-the-top action we have been accustomed to in this series is made up in the set up for where the story is going. If you were looking for an opportunity to give this run of The Punisher a chance, this issue is that opportunity. Read Full Review

While Frank's emotional distance may become a challenge over time, this issue excels as a tense, stylish setup for what could be a memorable showdown. Read Full Review

It’s not bad, but mostly setup. I miss the days when we got a full story in one issue.
Farid Karami’s art is great, but maybe a little too clean for a book like The Punisher.
