Punisher: Body Count

Ever thought that Punisher: Body Count just had way too much continuity and back story to listen to? Well, Dane and Jacob have made it easy to start listening with their .1 episode!

In Bulletpoints, we discuss Rucka’s inaugural issue issue on Punishe along with Jason Aaron’s Frank arc in Punisher Max. It’s also speculated that Steve Dillion photo-traces from Dane’s family photo album.

Moving onto Flaschbacks, we get into a knock down drag out fight over Klaus Janson as we discuss the Mike Baron run on Punisher. Thing end with a discharge papers we were discuss the ludicrousy of the Venom symbiotic suit.

Welcome to the numero cinco of Punisher: Bodycount. A lot of positive, yet hectic things have been going on in our personal lives, but much like herpes, a podcast as great as this can only be suppressed for so long. In Bullet Points, we discuss the “Bullseye” arc to Jason Aaron’s Punisher MAX run, where we find discuss the handling of this well-known assassin, and Jacob gets really hung up on how the guy can hide his gun as well as he did.

In Flashbacks, we celebrate the Captain America movie by discussing our opinions on the movie, and then talk about the 3-issue Cap/Punisher team-up known as Blood and Glory. If you read Tom Clancy novels or watch ’90s covert ops movies, then you already know what the story is about. In Discharge Papers, we talk about Hobo with a Shotgun, Wilfred, Queen and Country, and, um, Power Rangers. Listen it might be better for you guys to skip that part, but hey, it’s your call.

Corey Sosner interview.

Here it is, the third episode, and the last for this month, because good god we have filled our libsyn storage limit. In Mail Call, we discuss how Frank could work out as a golden age hero, and I give a short history lesson in MAX. In Bullet Points, we catch up on Jason Aaron’s run in Punisher MAX, marveling at how solid the first arc is and reeling in horror at the nudity. In Flashbacks, we read Die Hard in the Big Easy, where you come for the cocaine, but stay for the stereotypes. Seriously, Frank gets buried by voodoo priests who cut open a chicken and throw it in the casket with him. It’s pretty great. In Discharge Papers, we talk about Duke Nukem Forever, X-Men: First Class, the DC reboot, True Grit, and movies about kicking, but not all in that order.

Next podcast we’ll focus on the “Bullseye” arc from MAX, but Flashbacks is up for grabs. Suggest us some comics and if like ‘em, we’ll read ‘em!

In this podcast, we bring in a new segment called Mail Call, where we answer your questions and accusations that can’t be proven in the court of law. We also hint at a future special guest, but that’s top secret for now. In Bullet Points, we delve into Punisher MAX: From First to Last, chronicling three important moments in Frank’s life and try to understand the meaningless madness of Frank’s nightmare reality.

And then we talk about guns that shoot barb wire in Flashbacks Punisher Summer Special #1. With four stories to talk about, it’s a mixed bag, ranging from well played, to okay, to batshit insanity involving idiotic terrorist. We wrap things up in Discharge Papers by bringing up our Professional Opinions™ about the DC reboot and give recommendations on high art.

In this minisode we discuss Circle of Blood in Flashbacks and the importance of wearing chainmail in Discharge Papers.

In our very first Episode we discuss In The Blood in Bullet points, Amazing Spider-Man #129, 134, and 135 in Flashbacks
