However, when he did write for the Big Two, I was always interested in his character interpretation. He did wonderful things with Wolverine, Elektra, and Wonder Woman, characters that interest me only marginally. Books like Batman and Batwoman were made for him to write.
Now it seems like he's back, relaunching Punisher for Marvel. I haven't purchased a Marvel title in monthly form for the better part of the year, but that will be changing. If anyone can fill the giant shoes Garth Ennis left behind, it's Rucka.
As you can see from the picture, the official announcement won't happen until Saturday, but the sometimes reliable Bleeding Cool broke the news yesterday.
Keep your fingers crossed.
His interpretation of the Punisher should be interesting. I hope it's far afield from what Ennis did. Which isn't to denigrate Ennis's run on the book. I just want Rucka to make the Punisher his own and give us a new outlook on Frank Castle.
