Description

Punisher #81 Pg. 1 Title Splash
Art by Hoang Nguyen
Written by Steven Grant
Lettering by Ken Lopez

An awesome early 90s Punisher Title Splash reminiscent of the cover image to the issue, introducing the story "Bodies Of Evidence", but with even more cityscape to enjoy in the background as Frank Castle monitors police activity in the building across the street (his hideout) from a rooftop perch.

Will be sharing more interior pages from this issue periodically over time, but have to start with the beginning of the story and this splash. And a big thanks to Mark Hay over at Splash Page Comic Art who reps Hoang Nguyen!

Well, you led off with three aces. Can't wait to see where the Punisher #81 project goes from here!

A killer Punisher splash, indeed. I love that Nguyen utilized something of Kevin Nowlan's approach here, particularly his head. By the way, did you notice that from the neck up including the collar, the art is almost identical to that on the cover? When you stare at the cover for a few seconds and then turn it open to page one, you get a sense of deja vu. I think Nguyen was simply trying to save a bit of time by lightboxing rather than redrawing an entirely new figure. Really cool piece and I have to say that even if you never acquire the cover, I think you'll be hard pressed to acquire a more representative Punisher piece than this.

When any 80s or 90s action hero breaks out the M60, you know there will be carnage!

I wasn't familiar with Hoang's art till Daryl shared a page from his Punisher run a month or so ago. There was something about it I really dug but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. Then I saw this splash of yours and realized it's because there's shades of 90's era Jae Lee to it. This is a DOOOPPPPEEEEE splash, my friend!

He's Hoang Nguyen in nineties
Frank rides the night to find me
He tracks me roofs moonlight
Only to shoot me with the gun
He's aims for my heart
But Punisher knows what he's done

Title splash in my face
Body evidence seen
That look in his eyes
He's Punishing me

Just a fool to believe
He'll have any inks that bleeds
He's Hoang Nguyen

I too see a lot of Jae Lee in his art of that era, especially that issue. Fun splash.
