I love Punisher, and anyone who has followed me has had to deal with my endless threads about the character, but at this point I wonder if the IP is beyond salvaging. https://twitter.com/ashleylynch/status/1266886748019159041

Marvel is going to continue to dance around the racial issue and completely avoid the copyright infringement issue and until a writer who is willing to tackle it head-on gets in there? I think the character does more damage than it is worth.

And that pains me to say because one could do SO MUCH with the character as a way to lead a particular type of man who is lost and suffering out of the darkness, but no one wants to admit that he is lost (and WHY he is lost) in the first place. https://cheryllynneaton.com/2016/03/29/daredevil-2-social-justice-punisher/
