Even if both recent big screen adaptations of Marvel’s Punisher left something to ber desired, that doesn’t mean the comic book version of the classic character has been left in the dust. In fact, Marvel is launching a brand new Punisher series soon and we’ve got a preview for it for you today.

The upcoming comic features writer Greg Rucka and artist Marco Checchetto and “brings Marvel Universe’s deadliest man back out onto the streets. Frank Castle is locked and loaded for his most violent mission yet as he takes aim on New York City’s newest criminal organization, The Exchange.”

“Can Marvel’s one man war machine mow down the entirety of the Exchange or will they prove to be too much for Frank Castle to take on alone? With every clip the Punisher empties into the guilty he gets further away from being able to find the man he used to be…and he has absolutely no problem with that.”

Look for The Punisher #1 to hit comic store shelves on August 3rd. Check out some preview for the series after the jump.

While there have been tons over the past decade, this is certainly the biggest year for superhero films in theaters. Between X-Men: First Class, Green Lantern, Captain America and Thor, we’ve got more than enough magic, aliens, and science to keep putting butts in seats all year round.

While we’re finally getting films for The God of Thunder and the Green Lantern Corps, which is something nobody ever thought would happen, where does that leave the rest of the B-list characters in the Marvel and DC universe, such as Hawkman?

That’s where a brand new comedy short from Frog Island about how the rest of the superhero community feels about the winged hero wielding Nth metal to allow him to fly and fight intergalactic crime.

Some great moments and potshots and some less than popular comic film heroes, and we even get Yogi Bear star TJ Miller to star as our favorite emerald hero. Check out the short after the film and be sure to catch Hawkman in theaters probably never (or until Nolan decides to back the movie).

Even with Christmas right around the corner (It’s Saturday, just in case you didn’t realize) that doesn’t mean the elves at Marvel have stopped making comics. In fact, this week sees the release of some new titles we’re pretty excited about including X-Men #6, Superior #3, Deadpool #30, Secret Avengers #8 and Punisher: In the Blood #2.

As with most weeks, comics hit store shelves on Wednesday so hurry into your nearest comics book store early for best selection. Don’t know where your nearest comic shop is? Use this handy guide to find one.

According to the Little Big Planet website,  the worlds of Marvel and Little Big Planet will be colliding on July 7th. Starting on that day and continuing each week, there will be four costume packs for a total of 20 of Marvel’s greatest heroes and most despised villains.

It hasn’t been revealed which characters will be getting paired up for the packs as of yet. It is possible that they may be grouped by team such as an Avengers or X-Men pack or it may be a complete free for all where players can get Captain America, The Punisher and the Human Torch all in one oddball purchase.

In addition, there will be a Marvel Level Kit which contains four missions pitting the Sackboys and Sackgirls against Magneto. Beating these four stages will unlock Marvel music, objects stickers and a “Rooftop” background for your own level creations.

Today is Tuesday so that means new comics drop tomorrow. And what better guys to support than your friendly neighborhood comic book publisher Marvel comics. This week, as they do almost every other week, the folks at Marvel are releasing a whole slew of new books for your reading pleasure.

Of the ones coming out tomorrow, we’re particularly looking forward to a new X-Force, Punisher #15, Dark Wolverine #84, the new X-Men Forever and the debut of Cloak and Dagger. Remember to get to your nearest comic shop early tomorrow for best selection.
