Marvel's The Punisher New Trailer Breakdown: 11 Things You Need To See
5. The Full, New Outfit
Netflix
When Punisher walked off camera at the end of Daredevil's second season, fans must've thought that was the look he'd be sporting from then on. He had the skull and the jacket from the comics, but it looks as though leather isn't in this season.
Instead, Frank will be rocking a combat vest and jumper, which makes more sense in the scheme of things. Being weighed down by a big burly trench-coat won't do you any favours when things get up close and personal, especially when all of your enemies are rocking all the tactical gear imaginable.
Regardless, the show has definitely nailed the character's look, with the skull, boots and weaponry all screaming "look at me, I'm the Punisher!" in as absolute a way as possible. Score one for the wardrobe department.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
