    The Barracuda... Enough said.

    "He’s big, he’s mean, and the last thing on earth you want is to see him smile." As my fellow user The Outsider said, The Barracuda is one a' the worst (if not the worst) villains The Punisher is to face in his MAX series. This arc is pretty special due to the fact that's not really a "street-level" Vendetta, but a corporative scandal sorta thing. A company is planning the greatest scam of the century while eliminating any possible threats using The Barracuda, Frank is set to fight one hell of a mercenary while trying to stop a corporative scheme. The action sequences are f****ing great as well as the art, these guys know how to keep the mood of the book so you don't get to see those big changes in the artwork while reading an ongoing series. (i hate those kind of books.. But anyways) Barracuda's speech pattern is pretty much the "yo, dawg" Ghetto-esque slang, which is kinda cool, take Shaq and Terminator, put them in a blender and there you have it, a nearly-indestructible-badass-mercenary with no vocabulary at all but the F word! I had a great time reading this arc, and i'm looking forward to own it in the paperback format, thank god Ennis thought in all of us TPB enthusiasts and made his run outta 6-part arcs, it's just like reading a stand-alone miniseries set in a ongoing book, crazy, isn't it?
