4.0 out of 5 stars Marvel's legendary vigilante in the Old West, December 12, 2001

This review is from: The Punisher, a man named Frank

Aping the DC comics' Elseworlds line, Marvel puts a similar alternate-reality spin on their trusty vigilante. The new setting: the Wild West! And, like his modern-day counterpart, his family's been kilt, & he's left to die. But somehow he survives, and gets on the trail of the guys who'd done him wrong.

Noted action/adventure comic writer Chuck Dixon borrows & competently adapts the attitude, feel & some of the elements of "The Man With No Name" trilogy & "The Wild Bunch", and puts them together into a pretty good (if somewhat standard) little throwback tale of one man's revenge in the turn-of-the-century frontier. And the legendary John Buscema helps bring it all to visual 'life' with his renderings in this Punisher tribute to classic westerns. Definitely worth a look for Punisher buffs of all stripe, as well as Wild West aficionados!

This book is 64 pages long, and includes the standard deluxe-edition comic book cardstock cover. Art is printed on semi-glossy paper.
