One of the worst things they ever did, it made no fucking sense at all.

Eh, take it for what it is paw. Obviously there's no way he'd kill them all. It was more of a psychological piece, exploring the Punisher as a character from a different perspective.

It did make sense considering the point they were trying to push.
Was it a story about how if you shoot Bruce Banner the Hulk dies? Not really. Was it a story about dropping a nuke on the X-men? No.
The importance of this piece had to with the character dynamic between Matt Murdock and Frank Castle. It was inspecting the psychology of both characters and contrasting them in an unusual setting, in a sort of attempt to amplify that.
It wasn't great, but I definitely get what they were going for.

Don't give them so much credit. It was an attempt to cash in on the anti hero of the moment by writing a crap story where he kills everyone. That's it.

I didnt like this one either and wouldnt give them as much credit as Zeno did. I understand what hes saying and thats cool. But theyve played on Punishers & DDs philosophical dichotomy a few times before with better story-telling that didnt evolve jobbing the whole universe.
They should have taken this to greater extremes like having Punisher merk the cosmic abstracts then have him kill The Living Tribunal.
the only one remaining is death and he fucks her while dressed as the In-betweener.

that art was so terrible. Frank looked like he was having a stroke when he shot up Kingpin's place.
Marvel is doing a 4 part miniseries this summer where Deadpool kills the Marvel universe. I really hope it's better than this. I mean it can't get much worse, can it?

I agree that it could've been a hundred times better. I'm not saying it was great, I'm just saying I understand what they were trying to accomplish.
I liked it because it was a variation from the usual stance Matt Murdock has on the Punisher - where he holds him in contempt and is constantly about to come to blows with him.
I'd much rather see a miniseries where Matt and Frank are child-hood friends, and DareDevil goes on a quest to redeem the Punisher as he begins killing criminals mercilessly, it could even have the same beginning and ending, just not the rest of the nonsense like Wolverine dying via electrocution and Hulk dying via gunshot.
