Even one of my favorite writers couldn&#8217;t make it interesting for me. The &#8220;adventure&#8221; wasn&#8217;t all that fun or interesting and the book included some lame humor that just didn&#8217;t click with the Punisher mythos. The Punisher&#8217;s name is Sosumi &#8230;. and the antagonist is Skang Kee Ho.
