Ennis began his comic-writing career in 1989 with the series Troubled Souls. Appearing in the short-lived but critically-acclaimed British anthology Crisis and illustrated by McCrea, it told the story of a young, apolitical Protestant man caught up by fate in the violence of the Irish 'Troubles'. It spawned a sequel, For a Few Troubles More, a broad Belfast-based comedy featuring two supporting characters from Troubled Souls, Dougie and Ivor, who would later get their own American comics series, Dicks, from Caliber in 1997, and several follow-ups from Avatar.
Another series for Crisis was True Faith, a religious satire inspired by his schooldays, this time drawn by Warren Pleece. Ennis shortly after began to write for Crisis' parent publication, 2000 AD. He quickly graduated on to the title's flagship character, Judge Dredd, taking over from original creator John Wagner for a period of several years.
Ennis' first work on an American comic came in 1991 when he took over DC Comics's horror title Hellblazer, which he wrote until 1994, and for which he currently holds the title for most issues written. Steve Dillon became the regular artist during the second half of Ennis's run.
Ennis' landmark work to date is the 66-issue epic Preacher, which he co-created with artist Steve Dillon. Running from 1995 to 2000, it was a tale of a preacher with supernatural powers, searching (literally) for God who has abandoned his creation.
While Preacher was running, Ennis began a series set in the DC universe called Hitman. Despite being lower profile than Preacher, Hitman ran for 60 issues (plus specials) from 1996 to 2001, veering wildly from violent action to humour to an examination of male friendship under fire.
Other comic projects Ennis wrote during this time period include Goddess, Bloody Mary, Unknown Soldier, and Pride & Joy, all for DC/Vertigo, as well as origin stories for The Darkness for Image Comics and Shadowman for Valiant Comics.
After the end of Hitman, Ennis was lured to Marvel Comics with the promise from Editor-in-Chief Joe Quesada that he could write The Punisher as long as he cared to. Instead of largely comical tone of these issues, he decided to make a much more serious series, re-launched under Marvel's MAX imprint.
In 2001 he briefly returned to UK comics to write the epic Helter Skelter for Judge Dredd.
Other comics Ennis has written include War Story (with various artists) for DC; The Pro for Image Comics; The Authority for Wildstorm; Just a Pilgrim for Black Bull Press, and 303, Chronicles of Wormwood (a six issue mini-series about the Antichrist), and a western comic book, Streets of Glory for Avatar Press.
In 2008 Ennis ended his five-year run on Punisher MAX to debut a new Marvel title, War Is Hell: The First Flight of the Phantom Eagle.
In June 2008, at Wizard World, Philadelphia, Ennis announced several new projects, including a metaseries of war comics called Battlefields from Dynamite made up of mini-series including Night Witches, Dear Billy and Tankies, another Chronicles of Wormwood mini-series and Crossed both at Avatar, a six-issue miniseries about Butcher (from The Boys) and a Punisher project reuniting him with artist Steve Dillon (subsequently specified to be a weekly mini-series entitled Punisher: War Zone, to be released concurrently with the film of the same name).
Доста харесах сериала (два сезона) с Джон Бърнтол в главната роля, та разгърнах с добри очаквания този албум и ги потвърдих. Гарт Енис се представя с брутален сценарий, в който визуализацията на Стив Дилън се вписва отлично. Мафиотите от фамилия Нучи гинат като пилци из улиците на Ню Йорк, а асортиментът на Франк Касъл включва разнокалибрени патлаци, огнехвъргачки, че и... питомците в една зоологическа градина. Имаше и три любопитни странични сюжетни нишки с почитатели на Наказателя, също развити чудесно. Изобщо, чиста проба забавление на макс.
This one was somewhere between 3.75 to 4 stars, but I’m rounding it up (against the grain of my usual rounding down policy). I mean it’s obviously a comedy right? I need to judge it in that context. There are no deeper philosophies explored or character complexities revealed. The plot is very basic. The Punisher is going around murdering bad guys a la John Wick and now there are copycats popping up. The cast is comprised mostly of morons and killers (sometimes they overlap). I haven’t read Garth Ennis and I have a lot of his work in my queue (i.e. Preacher, Hellblazer, etc.), but I was a little surprised at how slapstick this was. My only familiarity with the Punisher was from the television series and this is a very different Frank Castle. I liked the show, but this version works too. It’s a quick and entertaining read, but it should be reviewed according to its peer group, action comedy, but not much more.
Si maestro es buenisimo. Una lastima que no tengo la parte 2, y aca en Argentina salen caros y no se distribuyen mas en puesto de diarios. Quizas en el futuro lea la continuación, pero lo veo poco factible
« Efficaces. Coopératifs. Stupides. Bravo, les gars. »
L’intrigue n’est pas beaucoup développée, reste simple : on assiste à une chasse à l’homme. Le Punisher compte venir à bout de la famille Gnucci.
Avec son ton sombre, ce comics nous plonge dans l’univers de Frank Castle, un univers où la violence gangrène, où le crime prospère. Même si on ne creuse pas le personnage du Punisher (c’est une volonté pleinement assumée), on se prend au jeu. D’autant plus que les dessins sont agréables.
J’apprécie suivre le cheminement de Frank ; d’une certaine manière, il me rappelle Dexter (de la série éponyme). Il ne tue que les criminels, conscient de ce qu’il fait.
Toutefois, ce qui m’a le plus conquise, ce sont les sous-intrigues où d’autres justiciers vengeurs apparaissent (qui possèdent moins de mesures que Frank, on ne va pas se mentir). Le Père Redondo frappe particulièrement mon intérêt.
Mention spéciale à la petite apparition de mon cher Daredevil. ♥️
Cet acte 1 de « Bienvenue, Frank » apparaît comme une lecture qui navigue à la frontière entre le bien et le mal.
Ich tu mich mit einer Bewertung schwer. Wenn man Punisher liest, darf man keinen Tiefgang erwarten. Aber...der dicke Nachbar namens Bumpo, der als running Gag in der Tür stecken bleibt. Eine Figur namens Bud Plug... Die Geschichte kam offensichtlich raus als das World Trade Center noch stand. Mein damaliges, pubertäres Ich hätte darüber vielleicht gelacht, aber mit 40 bin ich offensichtlich raus aus dem Alter 😬
Das Ganze ist ein Zweiteiler und es wird angedeutet dass man sich u.U. ein wenig kritisch mit dem Thema Selbstjustiz auseinander setzen könnte. Vielleicht wird Band zwei besser🥲
Ennis arranca su andadura en Punisher con un nivel altísimo e ideas nunca vistas antes en la tradición del personaje, nada menos que arrojando a un mafioso de la cima del Empire State. Con semejante escena inicial, la cosa no puede dejar de mejorar.
Хм, не знам кое е по-лошото: 1. Яките неща в тоя комикс са срещата на Наказателя с кьоравия гявол и сцените с подражателите на първия. Останалото е Рамбо vs. Умирай трудно, ама от алиекспрес. 2. Комиксът е над средното ниво за поредицата. П.П. И кориците на Тимъти Брадстрийт къртят!
Един превъртял "герой", който раздава неговата форма на справедливост. Един град контролиран от корумпирани политици, и мафиотските им кукловоди. Не мисля, че е нужно да продължавам. Но е повече от ясно, че ще има много, много убийства.
Primer acercamiento a punisher y la verdad que me gusto mucho hay una sola cosa que me hace ruido y es el dibujo de dillon que lo noto mucho más flojo si lo comparo con su trabajo en preacher por ejemplo.
La historia es simple pero efectiva y es un personaje que a garth ennis le viene barbaro.
Si nunca leíste nada del personaje empezar por acá es altamente recomendable
Es un buen cómic. Si fuera una película sería una pochoclera, pero de las buenas. De esas que no te dejan ninguna enseñanza, pero que recomendarías a tus amigos para pasar el rato. Es la vuelta a las calles de Punisher y un lavado de cara al personaje. Al comienzo me pareció que el Frank Castle de Ennis era demasiado similar al Nick Fury o al Billy Butcher que ya leí en otros cómics (paradójicamente primero leí este cómic antes de leer The Boys o el Fury de MAX). Lo mismo se puede observar una reiteración en cuanto a la presencia de ciertos personajes secundarios que parecen ser una marca de estilo en Ennis, pero que a su vez a veces parece un recurso barato para lograr un toque humorístico. El arte de Steve Dillon no es nada del otro mundo, pero creo que tampoco se buscaba que lo fuera, así que en ese sentido cumple bien con lo que se espera de su trabajo. A pesar de que Garth Ennis está lejos de ser mi autor favorito, tengo que reconocer que parte de su trabajo me gusta. Especialmente cuando tiene la correa puesta y no se va a los extremos de violencia y sexo que tiene en otros trabajos, es un guionista que sabe manejar la acción y que tiene planteos interesantes para ofrecer en ese ámbito.
Върховната колекция графични романи на “Marvel” ни носи двойна доза кървава справедливост с томове 43 и 44 – „Наказателя: Здравей отново, Франк“. В днешно време едва ли има почитател на комиксите, който да не може да разпознае черната фланелка с бял (често изпръскан с кръв) череп на Франк Касъл. Когато бях малък, за мнозина той беше просто герой от изключително популярна видеоигра (в която заедно с Ник Фюри раздаваха тупаници и се мъчеха да видят сметката на Кингпин), а някои го бяха срещали и на екрана във филма с участието на Долф Лундгрен (вероятно и без да осъзнават, че е същия герой, тъй като там култовият череп не е част от костюма). В днешно време обаче, за Франк Касъл има няколко игрални филма, сериал и безброй кросоувъри. И макар това да е първото му самостоятелно заглавие на българския пазар, той се е появявал в „Танос печели“, „Ти си Дедпул“ и „Войната на героите“.

Obra gráfica de acción en la que las balas y la sangre serán participes, todo esto acompañado de humor negro que detonara en los instantes tanto trágicos como hórridos para aplacar un poco la tensión. Escrita por el ya irreverente, critico y explicito escritor: Garth ennis y dibujado por aquel que junto al primero forman una dupla que en el mundo del cómic para publico maduro jamas han defraudado, el artista: Steven dillon. Este dúo es ya conocido por la aclamada obra Preacher, la cual los consolido a ambos, y desde entonces tras entrar en el proyecto de devolverle al personaje de Frank castle(Punisher) su prestigio y renombre, han sido aparte de este muchos los proyectos que han involucrado al personaje. Y gracias ha ello, conseguir darle su sello a un anti-héroe con mayúsculas.
I really don't enjoy this author's work: He's obssessed with christian mithology (but in the wrong way? I don't know how to explain it but I don't like it... and I usually do: case in point The Sandman, Vol. 4: Season of Mists) and it's way too gory and sadistic. (I went to his profile and surprise, surprise, he's the creator of Preacher... no wonder I didn't want to watch more than a few minutes of that TV show... I guess I won't be reading that comic)
Entertaining enough but excessively gratuitous and minanthropic. Neither of these are necessarily a problem, especially given the editorial claims that this is deliberate but the glee of the violence combined with the childish comic art style leads to suggest that this is aimed at immature readers. If they read this, they will stay this way! Nowhere near the thrill level of something like Assassin's Guild!
Mucho he escuchado del Punisher y muuucho he escuchado de garth ennis, pero la verdad es que al leer este comic, ambas partes siento que no cumplieron las expectativas que tenia de ambos. Si es verdad que hay mucha acción y bastante sangre,mutilaciones y torturas y tiene ese "sello" de Ennis, no estuvo ni cerca de lo que enverdad esperaba.
Conozco la historia de Punisher, pero no había ahondado en el personaje y siento que con este arco me permiten indagar más en su naturaleza oscura y fría, darme cuenta que es un ser sin temor a matar y mucho menos conoce del arrepentimiento por sus actos.
Кой може да устои на история за отмъщение? Няма нищо задълбочено, но точно в това е привлекателността. Читателят иска лошите да си получат заслуженото по колкото е възможно по-неочаквани и изобретателно жестоки начини.
Este comic forma parte de una colección de Marvel, en donde juntan las historias esenciales de un buen número de personajes del sello de Marvel, es decir de entrada sabes que esta historia tuvo un gran impacto. Dicho eso, es una gran historia que sigue a Frank Castle en su lucha (creo que guerra sería el termino correcto) contra una de las organizaciones criminales. A diferencia de otros héroes, Frank utiliza cualquier método letal en su lucha hasta lograr terminar con su enemigo.
I've never been a great Punisher fan, but I like the concept of a vigilante in a world of superheroes. More on this later.
The book starts off with lots of gratuitous violence, but with little story. About a third of the way through I started to get interested. I liked the responses from the general public about what the Punisher is doing. I didn't like the responses, or lack thereof, of the rest of the superhero population of New York as the Punisher goes on a killing spree.
There is one notable exception, Daredevil, but his involvement is purely because of his, at this stage of his career, by-the-book justice system approach to crime fighting. In this book the Punisher wins their encounter supposedly forcing Daredevil to accept the Punisher's point of view. However, considering Daredevil's capabilities (long time Daredevil fan here) it was a very contrived and unconvincing situation, which I didn't buy. I also did not buy that Daredevil did not continue on the trail of the Punisher afterwards, and if there is one hero that it is very hard to hide from, it is Daredevil.
I also don't understand where the Punisher was getting his intel from. This story occurs after he loses his support team, yet he seems to know and have everything he needs to do his job. For example, I do not understand how he knows about Daredevil's super senses, this is not common knowledge at the time, yet he uses this knowledge to get the better of Daredevil in a fight.
I have rated this at four stars (should be 3 to 3.5) because of some interesting additional aspects of the story brought in towards the end of the book, which have me looking forward to the second part of this story.
El primer tomo de dos partes, tengo la edicion de Salvat y no esta nada mal, tapa dura y con bastante info para el que no sepa del personaje, su origen y todo eso.
Ahora, esta historia pensaba ponerle 4.50 estrellas (Aunque goodreads no me deja), ya que es lo que esperas de una historia de Punisher, verlo a él matando criminales mientras no deja de pensar sobre lo que hace como si fuera lo más normal del mundo, (Cosa que en juegos como Max Payne 3 tomaron en cuenta).
Tiene otras subtramas que no sé si van a ser desarrolladas en la segunda parte o ya quedaron concluidas como la del cura que mataba gente que iba a confesar, pero tendría que verlo en el siguiente tomo.
Lo criticable es que Daredevil se le pasara por la cabeza meterle un tiro al mismísimo Punisher en una decisión que le obligo a tomar, era obvio que un comic de Punisher iba a darle favoritismo, no me molesta como se las arregla para derrotarlo, pero me parece medio ajeno al personaje que si le obligan a matar, DD lo haga. Más sabiendo que Matt Murdock es un abogado/juez (Dependiendo del tiempo en el que transcurra).
Por último tiene la viñeta que fue sacada una que otra ocasión de contexto y es la de Frank Castle metiéndole una trompada un oso polar. También tiene violencia exagerada como el que muere por ser ahogado en un lugar lleno de pirañas.
I read this the first time round when it originally came out. Garth Ennis writes the Punisher like no-one else. He absolutely nails it, and his run on the Marvel Knights series is the definitive one for me.
Not for the faint hearted, this is full of bad language and outrageous violence, this book really gets to the core of Frank Castle.
I like the darker Punisher stories a lot but please god stop hiring Steve Dillon for the art he has ruined so many good books. He has two types of look for the Characters including the women and they all have the same chin, hate his work so much! To be fair Garth Ennis is a God of writing the Punisher series.
