In my email box, from Marvel today:

 

Finally, don't forget to check your orders on PUNISHER #33 ... Garth Ennis relaunches the PUNISHER in January 2004 as a MAX book, but before that he sends the current series off with style with a tour de force story arc featuring Spider-Man, Wolverine and Daredevil forming a posse to take Frank Castle down once and for all.

 

Mmmm... MAX Punisher... smile.gif Two great tastes that taste great together...

 

Also got a link to the full story from NYX #1... Looks surprisingly good although I suspect it will have a hard time finding an audience. If it were an indy book I could sell it very easily. But as a Marvel comic it will be a tough sell. Despite the connections to the X-Men, it's primarily a story about what it's like to be a teenaged girl, and "fan service" aside (to borrow a term from Manga) it may be tough to push-sell. The trials and tribulations of being sixteen and female aren't exactly the favorite fare of Marvel's fanbase.

You may get some Josh middleton followers picking Nyx 1 up...

 

I really enjoyed it. And I like the art... I just question whether it can find an audience without them resorting to Wolverine cameos every other issue...

 

I'd post a page for your viewing pleasure, but Diamond and Marvel might be a wee bit chapped if I did...

There's a difference between forming a posse to take him down and actually succeeding in the task. Early word on the street is that Punisher kills both Spidey and Wolverine, permanently, setting the stage for Ghost Rider to retake his place as Marvel's flagship character...

 

Remember, you heard it here first.

O.o

 

what's Nyx's connection to the X-Men?

 

An X in the Name

Lead character is a mutant, just discovering her powers... There will be some early connections to a couple of X-Men, but word is it will be on the "namedrop" level rather than the "cheesy cameo to sell books" level.

I give it 4 issues before the cheap cameo happens
