Marvel Knights: Punisher Returns


Marvel will expand the newly revived Marvel Knights imprint with Marvel Knights: Punisher, a spinoff miniseries by writer Jimmy Palmiotti and artist Dan Panosian that will delve into the recent past of Frank Castle and how he became the Punisher that readers see in the flagship series Marvel Knights: The World to Come. The first issue of the four-issue miniseries will be released on October 8 with a cover by Panosian.

“This is Frank Castle pushed past his limits into uncharted, brutal territory,” Palmiotti said in a statement accompanying the announcement. “Dan and I aren’t revisiting a legend—we’re detonating it.”

“The Punisher is raw, unapologetic, and full of the type of grit we don’t often see anymore in mainstream comics,” Panosian added.

It's a shame they had to redesign the Punisher logo because white supremacist and militia wack jobs co-opted it.

 

Hmm. So they are putting the Moon Knight incarnation of Blade in this. Interesting.

 

The Spawn Universe, based on the character and world created by Todd McFarlane, will expand even further in October with the launch of the six-issue limited series Spawn: The Dark Ages, which will be written, inked, and colored by Liam Sharp.

The new series is set in the 5th century and centers on Erlking Ulegrave, the Devil’s Spawn, who forges an alliance with the Christian King Aurelianus Ambrosius to fight off the Saxons, Picts, and Hibernians who threaten his kingdom. The first issue will be released on October 8, 2025 by Image Comics, with a main cover by Sharp and a 1:50 variant by Ryan Brown.

“I wanted to create something truly unique, that didn’t require any former knowledge of Spawn, or the dark ages in general,” Sharp said in a statement accompanying the announcement. “I also wanted to take it right back to the very start of that period, setting the story in post-Roman Britain in the 5th Century—a time steeped in folkloric traditions, when the old Pagan ways were fading, whilst the new, young Christian faith was taking a hold. But I also wanted to write a grand melodrama, with love, betrayals, and courtly intrigues in the vein of the Arthurian legends—for whom our King, Aurelianus, was a prototype, and the possible historical root of that legend. And I wanted to give it a quirkily literate bent, to try and gift it a unique sense of place and time…”

The first Spawn: The Dark Ages series ran from 1999 to 2001 and featured a 12th-century Crusader who returned to Earth as a Hellspawn.
