The Punisher to be No Different than Other Marvel Shows.

Jul 12, 2017

—

Punishment is coming to November. Are you ready?

Come to think of it, Netflix’s The Punisher will be no different than all other Marvel shows that have aired on Netflix when it comes to Mature Content. Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist. These are all Marvel shows that contain adult-rated content that’s never suitable for children.
Jessica Jones contains sexual violence and rape. Daredevil contains graphic violence, blood, gore, and in a few cases decapitation. There are few scenes where partial nudity is shown, including Luke’s butt, in many of the Marvel shows on Netflix. And there’s a lot of F-bombs and foul language galore in all the shows.
The Punisher will be no different than any other Marvel/Netflix show. But I think the show is going to take a hard-R Rated path and show more of what the other Marvel shows contain. After all Frank Castle, The Punisher, is an ultra-violent grim and gritty guy who struggles to cope with the tragic loss of his family while waging a never ending war against criminals of all types. Blood, gore, murders, nudity, rape, mutilations, extreme violence and abuse, innocent, helpless people getting hurt or killed, bomb explosions, torture, everything that some people especially children find disturbing and traumatizing. Frank has seen it all.
So it’ll be no surprise to have The Punisher be a hardcore adult rated show containing explicit content of all kinds straight out of a Punisher Max comic. But if the show contains a harp scene where Frank actually plays the instrument, then that would indeed be a surprise.

Sherry is the one who came up with the idea of portraying The Punisher from Marvel Comics as the punishing harpist who plays the harp in memory of his family who was killed by the mob years ago.

About the author

Why does The Punisher play the harp?

It’s easy to imagine The Punisher shooting up criminal hideouts and blowing off the heads of thugs and mob bosses as the ultimate punishment for their crimes. But it’s hard to imagine (and believe) that there is also very gentle side to The Punisher no one knows about except for The Defenders (Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist), Microchip (aka David Linus Liberman), and Spider-man (aka Peter Parker) who actually saw and became amazed at him doing something no one has ever thought he could do with his violent hands– play the harp. A gentle stringed musical instrument no one could ever believe that The Punisher would have such talent and ability to use his otherwise destructive hands to gently and tenderly pluck and caress its strings.

Indeed, it’s very hard to imagine and believe that the Punisher’s violent hands that brake bones, strangle necks, and punch out guts are the very same hands that softly and tenderly pluck, caress, and gracefully sweep across the strings of the harp.

Why does he do it, you asked? Because Frank is doing this in memory of his family whom he communes with through songs, poems, and prayers as he gracefully wave his battle-scarred arms and hands across the strings to fill his private family shrine with harp music that moves The Punisher to joyful tears.

Where did the Idea of The Punisher and his Harp come from?

It’s a concept I, Sherry Konkus made up myself. It combines my new found obsession with The Punisher that I had since 2014 and my life long love for the harp. It is the very best concept I ever made. This is my version of The Punisher from Marvel Comics who is portrayed by me as the punishing harpist who plays the harp in memory of his late family who got killed by a criminal mob years ago and whenever he needs a break from waging a one man war against organized crime.

The Punisher was created by Gerry Conway with the help of artists John Romita, Sr. and Ross Andru. His name coined by Stan Lee. The Punisher is owned and trademarked by MARVEL.

The idea, concept, and inspiration behind The Punisher’s portrayal as The Punishing Harpist who plays the harp in memory of his family is in fact my own. Sweetest. Idea. Ever.
