    It’s even worse than that

    So, Frank ends up becoming an avatar for The Hand (evil ninjas), he stops using guns for a minute and switches to ninja magic and swords

    Then they use their evil ninja ways to bring his wife back to life so he can make a clean break from his past and embrace being an unstoppable killing machine or something

    He can’t kill his wife, so he turns on The Hand

    Then his wife calls him a monster, takes all the money he made being a vigilante (somehow) and leaves him

    Frank has his big “What have I done?” moment and ends up leaving for another dimension where he still kills people, it’s just different for some reason

    Then some other white guy who’s a Rogue SHIELD agent takes up being The Punisher because he hates crime too

    It solves none of the actual issues around the character and instead just makes him a fuckin’ cop who does the job with lasers

    It’s asinine, but then again, most comics are

        Yeah, it’s very telling how they ignore the best way to deal with chuds being associated with the character is via legal action against them using the Skull

        And hell, if they want to make it a story thing, literally have the Punisher go after chuds, he’s done it before

        Just do a big storyline where he’s hunting down a bunch of them who have taken up using his name and symbols to hurt innocent people

        I’m not even a professional writer and I could do this shit fifty times better than they are
