Plutôt un bouche-trou, permettant aux dessinateurs (Saiz & Azaceta) de la maxi-série d’Aaron de gagner du temps pour s’occuper de leur numéros/segments respectifs (à la pagination augmentée).
There’s no new issue of Jason’s PUNISHER series this month, which is the scheduling plan in order to give the series’ artists the time need to complete each oversized installment. So instead you get the first of three new PUNISHER WAR JOURNAL specials by writer Torunn Grønbekk that tie into the events of Jason’s series.

Bourrin et inutile.
En parallèle de la maxi-série principale, ce numéro spécial montre tout bêtement une mission du Punisher et de la Main, ici contre un nouveau Hate-Monger, lié à d’anciens événements concernant Frank.
C’est bourrin, brutal, limité, inutile, et dispensable. Torunn Gronbekk livre un scénario certes efficace, mais sans aucun intérêt. Lan Medina a un trait travaillé sympathique, mais sans entrain et sans puissance.
Ca se lit, hein. Mais c’est quand même mieux de s’en dispenser.
