Punisher Body Count: Episode 117

Merry Christmas! We had to cut back some planned special content due to scheduling issues, but it's still got plenty of Christmas cheer. An X-Mas miracle even occurs during the post-credits gifting segment, which may be my favorite 2018 moment. Introduction – Jake talks about his snarky daughter and I discuss the trials and tribulations of being a t-shirt mogul. [9:20 ] News – We give a eulogy for Stan Lee and the Marvel Netflix shows. [24:25] Mail Call –  We get into a power-level fight on how to make Cosmic Ghost Rider stronger and then question what the cut-off age is for being murdered by Frank. [36:18] Bullet Points –  We finish up discussing future Eisner award contender Cosmic Ghost Rider #5. We continue the good times with Punisher #4, with a Jigsaw appearance that we don't hate. [57:05] Flashbacks – We make good on last episode's promise and get to the first arc of Matt Fraction's Punisher: War Journal, including #1-3. This was a Civil War tie-in, and was a "re-introduction" of Frank back to the mainline Marvel comics. [1:56:03] Discharge Papers – Jake and I can't believe how good Creed 2 is, and then we get into some anime nostalgia. Here's the Youtube channel I recommended: Overly Sarcastic Productions.
