gorgo's The Punisher #1 - Purgatory, Part 1: The Harvest review

    An offbeat premise

    Ordinarily, I'm not a reader of the Punisher. My reason for picking up this mini-series is that Daimon Hellstrom, who makes a cameo in this issue, is a character whose appearances I collect. I don't dislike the Punisher, I'm just not a fan.

    This is an offbeat, but somewhat intriguing premise for the return of the Punisher. I like many comics with a supernatural bent, so I approached this book with curiosity as to how this would be merged with the Punisher's street-level aspects.

    The writing was adequate, but the art was disappointing, as Bernie Wrightson's usually brilliant pencils were overwhelmed by Jimmy Palmioti's heavy inks.

    For a more thorough review of the entire storyline, see issue 4.
