Jon Bernthal’s Message to Alt-Right Punisher Fans is… Succinct
by Geoff Miller

Jon Bernthal, the actor who plays the nominal anti-hero in Netflix’s
The Punisher, was asked in a recent interview his thoughts regarding
Frank Castle’s inherent place within gun control debates, and the
occasionally contentious appearance of his character’s emblem.

“Should there be a way that a guy with mental issues like the asshole
in Texas can’t get guns? Absolutely,” Bernthal told Esquire. “We have
to have a dialogue, and that’s not happening. I feel honored to play a
guy who people putting their life on the line identify with,” the
actor continued.

But Bernthal made sure that his stance on any alt-right members
showing off the Punisher’s skull and fangs couldn’t be misconstrued,
succinctly stating, “Fuck them.”

The Punisher’s logo has spread well beyond the pages of Marvel Comics,
having often been transcribed as fan tattoos, biker helmet insignias,
and even displayed on soldier’s helmets in Iraq. The symbol has also
popped up in a much more controversial location, however, when it was
spotted on the shoulders of alt-right protesters during last year’s
white supremacy rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Annoyingly, they chose not to show the emblem anywhere in the article. I
have not seen the Punisher and have no idea what the emblem is so how am
I to recognize it if I see it? I have no intention of spending money on
a film so that I can see what the logo looks like.

No way he'd be so "brave" with them if he though the alt-right was dangerous, like the lib media make them out to be.

It's a stylized white skull on a black background. I have never heard of
white supremsists using that symbol, but I heard it is popular among cops
and militiary men, so you can draw your own conclusion.

For a taste of the show:

I have 2 episodes to go, and will finish it tonight. So I'm not
commenting on the show itself... but so far, it's quite interesting.

His story arc starts in Daredevil Season 2. It's not for the faint of
heart... which this clip clearly illustrates. You won't see anything
much more violent anywhere on TV.

It's just a fucking white skull. Traditionally it fills the front of a
black shirt. It didn't exactly begin with the character. The movies
kept minimizing it by doing stupid stuff like putting it on his ring
instead, like he was the Phantom.

Yeah, I get the distinct impression they keep downplaying the logo
precisely because they don't like the fact that it's been adopted by
people they call Nazis (and who sane people call non-leftists).

Captain America has never worn the American flag. He has elements of
the flag in his costume, red and white stripes on his midriff and blue
pants and upper shirt with a single white star on the blue background
but it has never been the flag itself. The movie costume (for when he
actually went into combat) still contained the red white and blue colour
scheme but the red stripes were provided by buckled suspenders running
from his chest piece "armour" down to his pants. No costume that didn't
contain red, white and blue was ever proposed.

Why is anyone surprised that the show and the comic and Marvel as a
company want to distance themselves from racist gun nutters?

...and yes, despite BTR's dishonesty above, that is what this is about.
They aren't trying to distance themselves from US military troops in the
field (though there are valid reasons for that as well), but they are
trying to distance themselves from the alt-right-white-supremicist types.

The subject matter really requires it, though. I was thinking about

Is the logo even original to Marvel comics? It's always looked like an
amalgamation of something suggesting New Orleans or voodoo as used
by a biker ganger.

Here's his first appearance (I'd forgotten what an awful book ASM was in
those days, a scant 6 issues after Gerry Conway destroyed it.

http://readcomiconline.to/Comic/The-Amazing-Spider-Man-1963/Issue-129?id=
4360&readType=1

It's unclear if that's an 'ammo belt' (har har) or not. It doesn't look
to be on the cover, but it might be on the wretched interior art.

By the time Castle gets his own book, the belt is a cross between the
two belts from ASM 129 (although it's still not shown what it's purpose
is)

The skull starts off as a standard design you could have gotten at any
Spencer's Gifts of the era, and becomes more and more stylized over
time, no doubt so they could uniquely market it.

Thanks for the image and the issue. I read the whole issue (yawn). There
is a closeup of an ammo belt in one of the panels, although it's not
ammo for any of the weapons he's carrying.

Yeah. It's a skull. The point I'm making is that there's nothing
original about a skull and it's not uniquely The Punisher's logo if
anyone else uses it.

Wasn't there this guy Shakespeare or something who wrote some play that
never gets performed in which one of the off-stage characters is
addressed using his skull as a prop?

Wasn't there some ancient army that invented soccer kicking around an
enemy's skull between battles?

This is just another attempt by the Left in their continuing effort
to suppress free speech, in this case labeling the Punisher’s logo
as “hate art” and implying that it ought to be banned.

Yeah, his weapons take clips that wouldn't go in the teeth. Of course
he's always pulling a rope or grappling hook from *somewhere* so it
might be a rip off of Batman's utility belt.
