Description

Finally landed a ‘90s Punisher cover. I’ve been wanting to cross that off my list for a long time.

Super cheesy ‘90s cover, but I love it oh so much! Checks all the boxes I was looking for…

Bad-ass version of Frank ✔️
Big skull chest logo showing ✔️
Big gun(s) ✔️
'90s cover trade dress✔️
Memorable (for me) ✔️

and added bonuses.....
Flames ✔️ 🔥🔥🔥
Dead/dying bad guys✔️ 😵
Cheesy dialog ✔️ 🧀 🗯
Bad-ass killer dog ✔️ 🐕‍🦺

I'm not sure if anyone else remembers the stories with the Punisher's dog Max, but I sure do! Frank was like the original John Wick with his K-9 companion. When Netflix started the Punisher series they actually had a dog in season 1 episode 1, but wrote him out of the show because the dog actor was too difficult to deal with. 😂 Anyway... major nostalgia with this cover for me!

Punisher War Journal #59
"The House That Hate Built"
-October 1993
Written by Chuck Dixon
Penciled and inked by Gary Kwapisz

Thanks Paul!

This is one of the coolest, best, and most badass covers I've seen of Punisher.  What better dog (monster) to have your back then Max?  Love it, MAJOR congrats!!!

Those dog actors.  They are such DIVAS!  "I want my own trailer!"  "I want extra kibble"  "I want to pick the breed of the actress who plays opposite me."  Haha!  This is a stunning cover and it definitely checks tons of boxes.  I know how awesome it looks in person, so major congrats!!

Kick-ass cover! Love the whole vibe of Frank Castle here--Defiant, Angry and Powerful! As you noted, it sure checks off all the boxes on what you want in a Punisher cover! Congrats!

The mystery 90's cover! GREAT Punisher cover, man! Murder Dog takes it to a whole new level for me!

Amazing cover...really checks off the entire checklist in one fell swoop of the machine gun. Is it me or does Max look like he has human hands ready to choke a b!+ch because he's that crazy? Also, didn't realize that about Max and the Punisher Netflix series; I'll have to go back to revisit it.

If I was a villain, I think the dog would scare me more than the Punisher. Congrats.

A perfect rendition of 90's Punisher and really 90's everything. Consider that box checked!

Seriously? ' the dog actor was too difficult to deal with. ' Classic. They got punished for bad behaviour. Who said there was nothing funny in the world? The dog does look like its come from Franks pants. Perhaps not the best angle for the artist to draw from.
