Fuck yes. I’ve always said that Punisher works best opposite Spider-Man. Daredevil was a good stand-in for the moral opposition to Frank’s brand of violent justice. Spider-Man isn’t just avoiding murder, he’s actively pulling punches to go easy on the criminals he fights.
It is what was missing from the Thomas Jane and Dolph Lundgeren films. We had lots of revenge violent rampage movies, and seeing the Punisher killing violent murderers in a violent world of murderers doesn’t have the same effect as when you have principled heroes in the same universe.
Punisher was a little unhinged initially, they retconned that to say someone dosed him with drugs.
If he didn’t pull punches NYC would be covered in red mist…
Which is exactly what Frank would do with the same powers.
Fuck yes
