ITEM CONDITION: as new. The text block and illustrations are in fine condition, with no tears, dogears, or marks. No bookplate or signature of a prior owner. Not a library item or remainder. The wraps are in fine condition. 9 ½ x 6 ¾, 263 pages, 19 ounces XX [From the back cover] If the Punisher became a valuable piece of intellectual property during the closing decades of the twentieth century, he has become a global icon in the twenty-first. In this carefully argued study, Kent Worcester explores the sometimes ridiculous and often socially resonant storyverse of the most famous rageaholic in popular culture. As Worcester reminds us, punishment is a political and social construct. Violence does not imply or claim legitimacy. Punishment does. To talk about punishment is to ask who deserves to be punished, who decides who deserves to be punished, and what form the punishment should take. All costumed heroes have their political moments; the Punisher is political. He inhabits the most politically charged corner of the entire Marvel Universe. His adventures should attract our interest for precisely this reason. XX Kent Worcester is professor of political science at Marymount Manhattan College, New York. XX Kent Worcester has put together a hard-hitting, street-wise, in-depth look at the life and times of Frank Castle. His analysis is trenchant and fascinating, taking into consideration all the myriad aspects of the character and how they have changed over time. This is a rich, important study of a character whose violent ethos and iconography are so much a part of today's cultural zeitgeist [Andrew J. Friedenthal, writer and arts critic]. XX Deep-diving into a publication history spanning multiple decades, Kent Worcester's precise study helps explain the enduring fascination with the Punisher against the backdrop of an evolving sociopolitical climate. This long overdue examination of Marvel's most controversial yet iconic character will provide valuable insight to scholars, students, and fans alike [Peter Vignold, author of Das Marvel Cinematic Universe: Anatomie einer Hyperserie and Superhelden im Film: Zur post-patriarchalen Utopie des Marvel Cinematic Universe].
