Significant voices in the comic book industry have called on Marvel Comics to retire The Punisher character. They feel it has become corrupted due to its logo’s use in last week’s United States Capitol Building riots.

Several groups have used the iconic skull logo over the years, but seeing it on rioters’ shirts at the Capitol pushed some on social media over the edge.

Some Twitter users call for Marvel to be firmer on copyright infringements, while others call for Frank Castle‘s retirement from the Marvel universe, stating the concept behind him is “corrupted”.

Punisher is a victim of the Taxi Driver syndrome, which is to say that a lot of losers embrace him for all the wrong reasons.

There’s nothing wrong with Frank Castle as a character, you just have to frame him as what he is, a lost soul.

I haven’t watched the Netflix series so I can’t speak to how they characterized him but... there are a lot of knuckleheads out there who think he’s just some unencumbered Narc with a bloodlust. It’s actually really annoying as someone who grew up reading him.
