Punisher War Journal

I'm trying to decide whether I like the relaunch of Marvel's Punisher War Journal.

That said, issue #4 is an interesting mix of the funny, the poignant, and the macabre -- the latter being especially fitting for the franchise. Plus it's more than a passing nod the "Scourge of the Underworld" storyline.

There's also a super hero cameo that shows writer Matt Fraction gets the character, and there are more subtle -- but bigger -- changes to the Marvel U. from the recent Civil War arc.

So I'll stay on board for a while longer.
