The psychology of The Punisher has been explored so much that it's almost cliche, at this point. Like, asking if Batman is really the crazy one!The path to unlocking Frank Castle's pathology practically always leads to one conclusion: Post-traumatic stress disorder. And while that's almost certainly part of it, I think there's something else here. Something a bit more sinister. I propose that The Punisher is evil. Frank Castle openly breaks the law all of the time. And I also don't mean that he's immoral. Whether or not you agree with it, Frank does have a moral code that he abides by. No, what I'm saying is that I think The Punisher is psychologically evil.When Frank Castle puts a bullet...
As you know, Superman and the Flash face each other in another race to see just who is the fastest man alive. It has been 50 years since the two heroes first competed in a challenge of speed, and there have been countless rematches since then.

Who's fastest, let's find out. Our tour through fast, furious, and friendly rivalries begins in Superman number...
What we all love the most about the Joker, it's that his backstory is so mysterious. In most comics, cartoons, and movies, questions about his origin are left unresolved. No one knows, for sure, how the Joker came to be. He justexists. And that's certainly an idea that DC comics want to perpetuate with their reveal last year that there are actually three Jokers. Yes, not one, not two, but three different individuals who have been committing crimes as the clown prince this entire time. Making him, or their, history even more unclear. And surely, that is precisely the way the Joker would want it. From the changing explanations of his scars in Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight.- [Jocker] "Sticks...
Is there anything more terrifying than an omnipotent being who believes in nothing? An all-powerful villain whose only love in his own blood-soaked life is the literal manifestation of life's absence. A god infatuated with death, armed with the ability to cause it on a universal scale with the snap of his fingers.That's what Marvel's 1991 comic event The Infinity Gauntlet attempted to explore with a crazy, love-struck purple alien harnessing the immeasurable power of all six infinity gems together. Earth's mightiest heroes, and indeed the universe's most powerful cosmic beings as well, are just no match for the mad Titan who can bend all of reality to fit his wishes.In the hands of his creator, Jim Starlin, Thanos' stories...
There's a lot of speculation and theories about how Nick Fury lost his eye in the MCU (Marvel Comic Universe) based off of just the bare minimum knowledge that we have right now. Maybe there's a big final battle scene at the end of Captain Marvel that causes lots of damage. Maybe they fight each other, and that's why she isn't around in the MCU right now. But in the Marvel comics, Carol Danvers has nothing to do with how Nick Fury lost his eyeball and neither do the Skrulls. Nick Fury debuted in SGT. FURY and His Howling Commandos #1 from 1963. We couldn't figure out how he lost his eye until about 13 years later in Marvel Spotlight number...
