If Marvel doesn’t want to use the Punisher skull image, there is someone who does. Coming from DC Comics for the upcoming Absolute Power…



Article Summary

  • Marvel drops the Punisher skull after it’s appropriated by controversial groups.
  • DC Comics adopts the iconic skull for their new Task Force VII in Absolute Power.
  • Absolute Power explores a world where superheroes are hunted by villainous Task Force VII.
  • The new DC event series featuring Task Force VII kicks off with a powerhouse creative team.

Bleeding Cool was on top of Marvel Comics’ decision to drop the Punisher skull and then the Punisher wholesale, as a result of the appropriation of the character and the symbols by some unsavoury types. More on that below. But if Marvel doesn’t want to use such an image, there is someone who does. Coming from DC Comics for the upcoming Absolute Power event…

Task Force VII, the new Amanda Waller-run team of villains being used to take down superheroes by the government. Basically, they are coming to take your guns. Or your super speed, flight, heat vision and ability to turn into farmyard animals.

“End The Reign Of The Super-Heroes” is the tag. And the use of the skull for the organisation. You know what that means… Bring on Mitchell And Webb.

And do watch out for that paperwork when you are going up against Amanda Waller, Dreamer…

Bleeding Cool covered increasing criticism of the use of the Punisher skull by police, army, militia, white supremacist groups, QAnon events, and Sean Hannity on Fox News, even Trump Punisher pins have been popular. And then during the January 6th Insurrection at the Capitol building in Washington, many Punisher skull insignias were seen. This also followed Black Lives Matter protests and a focus on real and fictional police behaviour, including the use of Punisher imagery by the police. Amidst calls for Marvel and Disney to cancel The Punisher as a character, Bleeding Cool observed that this may have happened already and that there had been no published or solicited Punisher comic books since November 2020. There was a collection of Punisher Vs Barracuda – but that series was never completed. It was initially postponed by the pandemic but then abandoned altogether, despite completed issues having been completed. In July last year, Bleeding Cool ran the news that Jason Aaron was to reinvent The Punisher for a new age, adding the headline story “Jesus Saiz and Paul Azaceta Join Jason Aaron on Punisher No More”. Then we ran the official news that Jason Aaron, Jesus Saiz, and Paul Azaceta are indeed launching a new Punisher series in March 2022. That series ran with a different Punisher logo and saw Frank Castle living in a brand-new reality. A new Punisher series with a new Punisher and a new logo launched last year but lasted four issues… and that was that. Marvel is publishing a Frank Castle series in Vietnam called Get Fury, but that’s the extent of it…
