    Punisher is the only reason i will even look in Marvels direction nowdays he is exactly what i look for in a hero, costumed super heroes FTL, its also about time they did punisher right in a video game. 
      
    The same with you not getting the Punisher craze is the same way i don't get why so many flock to Deadpool, he's not that great, same goes for the other popular costumed heroes that everyone else promotes and flocks too.

    well hell, I guess Marvel didnt feel like stradling the fence with him having some sort of serum or (way over--used) healing factor
     
    I mean, some of these heros are getting nuked and smiling in the fire! The Marvel excuse "Oh, well he has a healing factor far superior to that of an average man..." In this case, Deadpool, Wolvie (all the canadian project-kids) can give heavy hitters a good fight, why? Because they can't die! 
     
    These "Weapon X" test dummies can live thru everything! Think about how many of them are just hanging around! Why fight a guy who can have his body ripped off and thrown miles apart? (Wolverine) Or a guy who can stick his head back on after being ginsu'd? (Deadpool) 
     
    But Drax went behind Thanos and one-inched his heart out..."interesting" 

    I appreciate the Punisher, because he's a real human, hanging in there with people that have over the top powers and surviving...with the stupid acception of him getting diced by Daken...which is crap... 
     
    SUPPORT PUN, movies suck, but he's a bad a**!

    regardless Hal is powerless, and John is too, except for the amazing power of "WILL", but were talking about punisher, i just want to hear different oppinions i think hes overhyped.

    "

    He's one of the most underrated characters in 616.  He's taken down big name characters because of him being a master stratigest not inventing some puesdo scienfic item like Batman and Reed Richards do to overcome enemies that they should have no business fighting because they would get killed.  Batman is the poster boy of PIS and CIS when he fights enemies that are way tougher than him.  Also deadpool is one of the worst characters ever written in marvel comics history.  The character is written as a deliberate joke that is why he knows he is a comic book character because they decided to write a character with no depth to him.

    Why does everyone need powers, then stronger powers, then stronger again? He is the perfect street level character. He cleans the streets and doesn't cost the taxpayers money by acting a judge jury and executioner.

    I love the Punisher. He is my favorite... (arguably super)hero. 
     
     I have always thought Batman was a poorly written emo version of Punisher.

    Captain America doesn't have super powers either. Marvel's made it clear that their characters don't need super powers to hang with the big boys if they have other skills, and the Punisher has a goal, a sharp mind and extreme talent with fire arms. He's also a character with an interesting background and unique perspective.

    He's good because of the tragedy of his origin and his supreme drive and dedication to his mission; without powers.

    I got into the Punisher at issue  21 and I though it was the greatest thing to have a normal / non superpower old man hero. It really blew my 14 year old Spiderman and Hulk saturated mind.

    He's so highly regarded because of his tenacity, dedication, the danger he presents and his track record against everyone he fight.

    He's very, very badass for a normal human.
