Welcome to Atop the Fourth Wall, where bad comics burn. In this episode, Linkara looks at a comic where the Punisher takes on a rather... unique transformation.

Originally uploaded May 25th, 2015.
ORIGINAL INFO: So we’ve got this guy who shoots guns and kills criminals. What weird crap can we throw at him this week?
RUMINATIONS: A lot of people were commenting to me when this video came out that the Punisher not being genuinely black would be obviously by his hair, but that seemed iffy to me and since I am a white guy whose expertise only falls into the realm of superheroes, Star Trek, Pokémon, and boner jokes it’s best I try not to comment on things I don’t know much about when it comes to real people (I’ll pretend I know things about popular franchises and how toys are made, though!). The only other thing of note, as I said in the episode, is that because of filming the movie I had to redo the schedule and thus My Cage was pushed back and my planned Punisher three-parter became a two-parter. I prefer to look at a multi-issue storyline over several weeks, especially if it means an easier workload with single issues, but them’s the breaks.

The "four cop cars pulling over one black guy" part actually makes sense given that this comic was published only a year and a half after the riots in LA over the officers that beat Rodney King getting acquitted.

Lewis' point about able bodied people not taking disabled people's word for it made me think of that Dave Chappelle routine where he joked about how nobody believed police brutality against minorities was an actual thing until Newsweek did a story on it. Then suddenly it was a real problem and not something that had been going on for decades.

0:55 also a war veteran in one of the most brutal and hated wars in American history, has been trained by several different special ops groups, has a ridiculously high pain tolerance, and a gift for violence that borders on being supernatural. But what sets him apart from the others (at least to me) Is he doesn't really have an alter ego. Sure he's Frank Castle and people call him as such but to himself He's simply the Punisher. And even though his mission is ultimately fruitless; one thug dies, two more takes his place, he continues being the Punisher knowing this. He chose a goal and pursued it wholeheartedly, despite the certainty of death and the meaninglessness of action. That's why I'm a Punisher fan.

To answer your question regarding the whole 5 cops vs 1 person, it's so that it can be easier to handle in case the subject becomes belligerent or combative, yeah I know the comic has to have the whole "yes, racism and abuse of power exists despite the fact the number of reported cases normally apply to the one percent of asshole officers and nothing drives the point home more by reenacting Rodney King's arrest". Because try and take on one person solo while trying to wrangle them in handcuffs, you got dirt in your eyes, you're breathing heavy all while yelling for the person to stop resisting as a legal precaution, and even after finally getting them in handcuffs they can still fight with their weight and head, and god forbid they get behind you and choke you, get on top and start pummeling you into unconsciousness, or worst case scenario you feel a tug and can't feel your abdomen anymore because you've just been shot with your own gun (thankfully retention holsters are standard) or be met with a subject with their own weapon or one of your tools.

"Why didn't they just take their word for it?" That reminded me of these people who get falsely accused of something and afterward say, "Now that I've been falsely accused of something, I know what it's like and want to help others who have been falsely accused." It's great that they now understand false accusations are a real thing and want to help others, don't get me wrong, but why did it take them being falsely accused themselves to believe it actually happens it real life? Did they think that every single person who claimed they were falsely accused was lying and that every example of someone being released due to false evidence was a mistake? Even if the majority of people claiming that were lying, that doesn't change the fact that there are so many cases in which undeniable evidence has come out the person was falsely accused, so shrugging it off with "Oh, I bet they're all lying!" denies reality.

My explanation on why Punisher became black in this story; they wanted to do what was done some years ago in making characters more appealing to a non-white audience, but thought just killing off Frank and have someone else take up the mantle was not a good idea. Then they just had too much weed.

Someone else has probably already mentioned this by now, but I've heard of a Superman comic where Lois Lane had this same thing done to her ON PURPOSE because apparently that'd make it easier to interview black people or something stupid like that. End result was she was led to believe the change was permanent, and spent the rest of the comic talking about the ways it affects her, rather than try to learn something from it.

Ok, on further consideration I think what was dumb wasn't the actual making her black, per se, but rather her reaction to the prospect of being black permanently.

I'm a fan of the Punisher and like that he's a change up in the Marvel universe, while they have discontinued comics of other genres, I will say that they should just kill him off permanently. his last series up to and during the recent (dumb) Secret Wars was dull. I can't say how well the new was is doing until there are a few more issues, but nobody is going to top what Garth Ennis did with Marvel Knights Punisher and Punisher Max. Best arcs other that those runs were his first mini-series (Circle of Blood), Punisher Year One, the first 12 or 13 issues of War Journal, first 8 or 9 or War Zone, and the Resurrection of Ma Gnucci

When I first watched this, I didn't know what was going to happen. I'd only seen videos around The Punisher in brief and in films, never his storylines. As such, I was shocked that this ever existed. I mean, how do you prepare for this?

Wait, if she added melanin to his face, wouldn't that mean that Frank would look like he has blackface on? Unless she completely changed his facial structure, which the next issues suggest she didn't, this plan won't work.
