Review/plot:
Our new exoskeleton character for this issue is *sigh* the Eradikator.

And before you start saying, "See! Male characters get the brokeback pose sometimes too!", be aware that this guy's bottom half isn't actually attached.

The story is that the Eradikator has killed an old war buddy of the Frank Castle's, and the Punisher takes it upon himself to guard his buddy's bratty cocaine-using daughter, who was also a business partner. The assumption is that Eradikator was sent by a rival company because the father had developed an "anti-robot gun". Punisher gets along with the daughter about as well as you'd expect...

...but he's unable to stop the robot when it comes. So they have to go and get the gun.

Here's the awful ending.

Ok, let's look at the other two stories.

You know what? On second thought, let's not.

That pose in the first panel literally had me choke and ask "what the sh** is this?" That art looks painful.
