A concept i’ve been thinking about since infinity war- Thanos using the reality stone to reverse the effects of the super soldier serum, causing Steve to revert back to his smaller, sickly self. It seemed to me like a good visual way to really shock an audience and bring an end to Steve’s character arc (a calling back to the themes of the first avenger and the idea that Steve was Captain America long before the serum, and allude to the Avengers 2012 quote “everything special about you came out of a bottle.” If Steve survives endgame this de-seruming may be taken as an opportunity to lead a more normal life, as was touched on in Age of Ultron, and allow the new generation of Avengers to take the lead.) Anyway, i had fun with this idea, hope you enjoy it.

YEAH. that was my feeling. a (large) part of billy probably thought he was justified in what he did to frank because frank hurt him first, and worst. 

Congratulations Black Panther on being nominated for 7 Academy Awards!

Frank is sitting in the van waiting for the drug dealers to arrive. Suddenly someone lands on the roof of his van and jumps down. Daredevil leans against the door, bemused look on his face. “So, Frank. What the hell are you still doing in my city?” Cut to black.

I think it’s a damn shame the writers misuse and squander the talent at their disposal. They consistently made the least interesting narrative choices all season. Barnes and Bernthal did what they could with what they were given, god bless them for it, but it couldn’t save the story.

I thought Punisher season 2 was fantastic and absolutely terrible. The actors were phenomenal and I’m not over Certain Scenes. I do think a lot of what some fans felt was OOC for Frank was actually very IC for one simple reason: you aren’t supposed to like him. He’s not a Good Guy. He’s a ‘Does What Needs To Be Done’ Guy. And it hurt to watch - I’m not over it and I spread my watch out over 3 days so I can only imagine how people who binged it in one sitting feel.

and that just goes to show how the writers decided to ignore the narrative complexity of the frank/billy arc in favor of making Frank Castle just another cruel man with a gun *shrugs*

Please don't take this as an attack - I love/hated this season as well. I'm just offering a counter.
