A Look Back at The Punisher's First Time Targeting a Woman

A Look Back at The Punisher's First Time Targeting a Woman - Interesting on Aviaclip

This comic panel from the Punisher MAX series depicts a flashback to August 1978, marking the first time the character targeted a woman. The narrative explains that the woman had been convicted of drowning her three children but avoided the death penalty due to the state's legal system. The Punisher, acting as judge, jury, and executioner, intervenes from a distance with a sniper rifle to ensure she faces the ultimate consequence for her crimes, despite her belief that she had escaped the death penalty.

Talk about a cliffhanger, though I guess for her it was more of a long-distance relationship.
