a couple of lovely FrankenCastle #19 reviews

So, FrankenCastle #19 hit the shelves last week. Rick and I are immensely proud of it, and it thrills us that apparently some readers are enjoying the ride, as well.

From Benjamin Birdie's rave at ComicBookResources.com:

...when Rick Remender and Tony Moore work together to make comics about a reanimated Frank Castle doing pretty much anything, when you're finished and you put it down, there's really only one thing running through your head like a suspended Buick chassis rigged to slam you into a brick wall: "This is the best damn comic I have ever read."

And an excerpt from Chad Derdowski's Mania.com review:

At this point, I’m just hooked – line and sinker. No matter what the age, all men have a 12-year-old boy lurking within their soul. Moore and Remender manage to extract that young spirit and distill its essence into 22 pages of violence, humor and gore. God bless them.

Punisher #11: FrankenCastle solicits

My first issue of Punisher with long-time partner in crime, Rick Remender, is in solicitation now. If you've enjoyed what Rick and I have cooked up in the past, I guarantee you'll have fun with this. And just to quell the speculation, YES, it is exactly what it looks like... but much more awesome than what you're thinking. I wouldn't lead you wrong, would I?

Long time collaborators Rick Remender and Tony Moore (GHOST RIDER, Fear Agent, The Walking Dead) are reunited for what will be the greatest struggle in the afterlife of the Punisher.

Sniktety Snikt, Here Comes The Stabbin'

here's a little Wolverine sketch i did recently while listening to a podcast interview with Jason Aaron. Also, i totally stole that subject line from Jason. Hope you dig the drawing.

introducing The SkinBender

this hot leathery Japanese nightmare is a malicious new villain whom Jason Aaron and i introduce in Ghost Rider #35, and her name is The SkinBender. If you like the shenanigans we've been up to in the book so far, i think you'll really enjoy this one. it wraps up my run on Ghost Rider, and I couldn't be prouder of what we've done in these scant 3 issues.
