10 More Most Disgusting Comic Book Deaths
3. The Punisher - Dark Reign
If you've never heard of Daken, the gist is that he's Wolverine's psychotic supervillain son, who has Wolverine's powers, but none of his morals. So yeah, bad dude to mess with. Which is what the Punisher learned first hand during the events of Dark Reign.
When Frank Castle fails to assassinate the head of H.A.M.M.E.R, Norman Osborn, Norman commissions Daken to deal with Frank once and for all.
Daken chases Punisher to a rain drenched rooftop, where the two have a gloriously bloody and gory battle. However, skilled as he is, Punisher is still a squishy human fighting a psychotic killer with adamantium claws. So he was only gonna last so long against him.
Frank's death here is probably the goriest that this notoriously gory character has ever gone out, with Daken sadistically playing with his prey, slicing off bits and pieces to toy with him, before finally dismembering him completely. He then tosses the bloody remains of The Punisher off the building and into a gutter below.
Not the first time Frank Castle has died in the Marvel Universe, but definitely one of the most shocking.
