I mean, they glorified the punisher. So this isn't surprising.
I haven't seen the show and barely know the Marvel character, but even as a violent killer/vigilante, he's far from the monster Homelander is, right ?
Or did they make him racist/homophobic/patriot/etc to appeal the "alt-right" viewers ?
as far as i remember the punisher is basically a violent anarchist vigilante who kills anyone he deems a criminal, including corrupt politicians and cops. so basically they missed the point of the character.
Yeah, his targets are usually so vile that nobody questions his methods.
For anybody that wants to be the punisher though... like honestly if the punisher has gotten pulled into a problem he's less an angel descending from heaven and more of a fire burning through absolutely everything.
Like everything needs to be in a state of fucked for him to get involved. Absolutely fucked. Isn't it better to avoid that in the first place?
