[edit] New volume

--Telecart 20:53, 6 April 2006 (UTC) There's a new volume of Punisher War Journal coming out soon, written by Matt Fraction and art by Ariel Olivetti.. So, I'm guessing there'll be more to this article than just a list of old floppie.

[edit] Merge?

I think the this entry and Punisher Bibliography can be easily merged to form one really solid entry. Thoughts? (Emperor 15:16, 23 May 2006 (UTC))

I think it should be removed. All infos are duplicated in The Punisher War Journal and The Punisher War Zone. And Punisher Bibliography lists all the series, linking there. Anyway this current article is useless now and should be removed Jakilcz 23:11, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
Ah but if you check both the The Punisher War Zone and The Punisher War Journal they have both been flagged to be merged in here. I don't really object to either really although the "List of..." naming format fits with various others like List of steampunk works, List of magazines of anomalous phenomena, List of current Dark Horse Comics publications, List of current Image Comics publications, List of Star Wars comic books, etc. so if we are not going to merge and instead delete one entry then I'd suggest the information in Punisher Bibliography be moved here. (Emperor 00:36, 24 May 2006 (UTC))


Yes, You are right, it would be better to move Punisher Bibliography here and remove it. The Punisher War Journal and The Punisher War Zone should be left as they are now. List of The Punisher comics will list series, and The Punisher War Journal etc will list all albums of this series (maybe with descriptions some day). Putting it all on one page would make no sense, such arrangement is optimal. (btw i will try to clean it yet a bit in following days cause there is still some chaos, like with category) But anyway You can remove this article and place bibliography here Jakilcz 14:10, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
OK cool sounds like a plan. I have dropped a note in to Jamdav86 who proposed the other merges so they can have their say in the matter but that solution does help reduce replication/redundancy of information which is the important thing. The War Zomne/Journal entries do need expanding to include details of the series (not just lists of issues) just to flesh things out. (Emperor 17:14, 24 May 2006 (UTC))
Ok, i started cleaning. I moved V6 to The Punisher v4 and v4 to newly created The Punisher: Purgatory as that's the real name of this series. The Punisher v5 should be removed, there is no useful info there, and in old meaning someone called like that 2 series: Wolverine/Punisher (Marvel Knights) #1-5 and Daredevil vs. The Punisher: Means and Ends (Marvel Knights) #1-6. As they are listed below, marvel knights has own article and it would break numeration The Punisher v5 definitely should be removed not to cause additional chaos. Jakilcz 22:48, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
Sounds reasonable - we will need to put a redirect in place - should it point here? (Emperor 14:44, 26 May 2006 (UTC))
If we can't remove it at all (as it's absolutely useless and nothing links there) yes, make it point here (or better to "list of..." where we agreed on moving this page to). Jakilcz 15:32, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
If nothing a redirect will stop someone from trying to make a new entry there. (Emperor 00:56, 30 May 2006 (UTC))

The bibliography should be left alone, but the others should be merged into this page. Descriptions of plot should be added too. --Jamdav86 09:45, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Jesus, what for? List of all punisher issues would create one of wikipedia's biggest article. Adding description for them would be going for a record of wikipedia's biggest article. What is wrong with the current solution that each series has it's page? Jakilcz 20:34, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Punisher War Journal v2

can somebody rename the Punisher War Journal to Punisher War Journal v1? because there will be a new war journal volume 2 in relationship to the marvel civil war, by matt fraction frbarba 00:29, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

nevermind -Bloodpack 13:05, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Punisher (1987 series)

i wonder why the The Punisher Summer Special #1-4 (1991-1994), The Punisher: Back to School Special #1-3 (1992-1994) and The Punisher Holiday Special #1-3 (1993-1995) falls under The Punisher (1987 series)? Arent they special titles which has nothing to do with the ongoing events that took place in the The Punisher (1987 series)? and besides, they have their own publication years †Bloodpack† argh! 06:49, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Good question. They're annuals, and so listed in chronological continuity with the main title(s) just like any other annual. --Tenebrae 16:31, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
Just took a look. The way you've them now makes them seem like regular ongong series rather than annuals. No biggie, but I'd like to open up thoughts on this to the rest of the Punisher editors.--Tenebrae 16:36, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
well i guess, but the The Punisher (1987 series) already have its corresponding annual and a regular comic book series have its corresponding annuals, maybe they should be in the special titles, i mean, theyre spinoff titles right? †Bloodpack† argh! 15:32, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
I can see it that way, as an annual series, like a bimonthly or a quarterly. I'm cool with it. Good working wit'cha!--Tenebrae 18:53, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
thanks =] but i can still be wrong, anybody? †Bloodpack† argh! 21:03, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
