5.0 out of 5 stars
Very fast paced and entertaining,
This review is from: Punisher MAX Vol. 3: Mother Russia (Paperback)
I was new to the punisher series...having bought the last episode of up is down and black is white i was a little curious about the title, so on my trip to the bookstore i picked up mother russia and bought it. It was an amazing read...garth ennis was born to write this book. Filled with action, humor...and in a weird way sentimentality...ennis's ideas sometimes feel recycled from preacher though...and its not altogether bad...but a little more would go a long way
the art was excellent....baithwraite's punisher seemed aggressive even in panels where there was no action...like a caged animal waiting to strike....there was a certain beauty to it, a certain grit to the faces and expressions...perhaps he is the best artist for this title after dillon. cant wait for more

An awesome action thriller in comic book format. I love Garth's take on the Punisher and Nick Fury. Dougie Braithwaite's artwork is top notch. The characters and diaglogue that Garth comes up with are priceless ("Oh sh**. He brought the Mongolian."). I've ordered all of the other Garth Ennis Punisher volumes after reading Mother Russia (can't wait to read the next!)

Mother Russia Ain't No Lady,

This review is from: Punisher MAX Vol. 3: Mother Russia (Paperback)
This book departs from Frank Castle's anti-Mafia Jihad. Here, US super-spy Nick Fury recruits the Punisher to infiltrate a Russian ICBM silo to recover a very important package. The dark, cynical take on US intelligence and military command is well done, especially in this era of Bu$h lies about WMD, Iraq-9/11-Al Qaeda links.
Artist Dougie Brathwaite's work is a bit too sketchy for my tastes. The Punisher character is best rendered in a realistic Steve Dillon fashion or a moody, noirish Tim Bradstreet version. The art isn't bad, it's just not very good. But the story is well paced and plotted with a killer twist at the end. Read it, you'll like it.
