In this special Cammy's Comic Corner, I talk about Frank Castle aka The Punisher.  What you should read, what movies to see, and why Garth Ennis was born to write this character.

From Amazing Spider-Man #129 to his MAX series, The Punisher has continued his life-long quest to slaughter the guilty, and doesn't look like he plans on giving up anytime soon.

Although there isn't a pick of the week, I compare both Final Crisis #4 (DC) and Secret Invasion #7 (Marvel) since they're both the big event books out this week.  Fast Five picks include Scalped #22 (Vertigo), Criminal Vol. 2 #6 (Icon), Rest #1 (Devil's Due Publishing), New Avengers #46 (Marvel), and Superman New Krypton Special (DC).

Even with two event books out this week, not a whole lot got me excited.

Quite the variety this week though, so at least that counts for something!

Saturday; the day of awesomeness and sadness all rolled into one.

Panels I saw:
*Heroes: Villains
*LOST
*Wolverine And The X-Men

I also rant about how ridiculous the lines have gotten, Pushing Daisies, and even give away a few GRAPHIC NOVELS!!!!

Sadly, I wasn't able to make the Watchmen panel today, but that didn't stop me from checking out other awesome panels!

*Joss Whedon's Doctor Horrible
*The Spirit
*Visionary Filmmakers - Kevin Smith, Judd Apatow, Zack Snyder
