it really saddens me to notice that only two people mentioned one of marvels illest characters of all time… Black Fuckin’ Panther
seriously one of the greatest characters ever created period… homeboy is king of the only nation in (albeit fictional) history to never get conquered… how does that not own?
and of course the man, the myth, the legend… he that is imbued with the power cosmic
Mangog
female ultron
ares
annihilus
mephisto
Bullseye
sentry
and this black mof Barracuda… if you don’t no who this nigga is… you best to go out their and find a trade paper back of his book.
Thing’s surrounding his death are rather vague at best, next to Jigsaw Barracuda is my favorite regular Punisher villain/sometimes ally in the series. I think Punisher only has three villains that ever actually return in some form.
In Punisher Max #50-55, Barracuda finds out that Punisher has a daughter, kidnaps her, and then tricks the Punisher into a position where he would be able to kill her in front of him. Naturally, the Punisher doesn’t take this well, and the two end up fighting for the next five issues, culminating in da 'Cuda getting both arms chopped off with a fire axe and then having his head shot off.
Yeah, I’m sure Barracuda dies at some point. Garth Ennis has a strict policy for the Punisher: villains can only come back once; after that, they die because Frank doesn’t play around.
I just didn’t see the point of making a one-sentence post about the fact that he’s dead. Those comics are fairly recent.
