Jason Aaron has completely changed the story of Frank Castle, aka The Punisher. Now, he’s the leader of the ninja death cult called The Hand. By adding some back story and bringing his dead wife back from the dead, Jason Aaron has elevated The Punisher’s story to a Shakespearean level. We’ll discuss the entire 12 issue arc, explain how Frank came to this point, and what it means to be the Fist of the Beast. We’ll also discuss some of The Punisher’s greatest hits, including “Welcome Back Frank” and the time he teamed up with a cosmic powered Spider-Man to prevent the American government from switching their currency to the cocaine standard.
