Ennis has certainly developed a pattern for his recent Punisher stories, with each arc following the same pattern while trying to up the ante slightly from the previous arc. In other words, each arc has slightly more sex and extreme violence than the one that came before.
He really upped the violence here; and Parlov does a good job translating this violence to the page. And while the story delivers on the promise of another ultra-violent Punisher story, I think Ennis forgot to lost his grip ...more

A visually slick comic of vigilante justice. Had picked up the volume at a flea market and am glad my son never picked it up to read. A good dose of violence and sex and adult themes. This time the hero goes after corporate bullies in the energy field and a scary corporate enforcer who likes to feed his victims to the sharks off of Miami. I loved THE EXECUTIONER novel-series when I was young; I probably read more than a dozen, which followed an outline closely paralleled in this volume.

I gotta stop reading these things. Yeah, I like comic books, yeah, I like the idea of the Punisher-- a force of nature enacting a no-bullshit takedown of the badguys. But simply finding new ways to commit violence and mayhem in the name of justice is unworthy of Ennis' ability to tell a story & evoke an emotion through that story (see volume 5, Punisher MAX Vol. 5: The Slavers). I know, they can't all be winner
