Punisher and Bullseye

 


Another random grab from the Founder's Club Book Fair and the packaging of these two characters together makes sense in that they are both psychotic killers, although Frank Castle, the Punisher, generally kills those who he believes has escaped justice while Bullseye is a mercenary for hire. Both of these tales involve the killers taking a long-game view - particularly Bullseye's story - with a complicated and round-about way of getting to their targets. Some details evaded me, at least in a first read, in that I'm not quite sure that all of Castle's victims were deserving of his "justice" and I'm not sure that Bullseye even accomplished his end game, since is was so drawn out and somewhat vague.

Not bad, but not the best of the bunch or of these character's many stories.
