Re: Punisher & Fem!Daredevil character exploration

Just took a peek at the relevant issues again.

In The Slavers the woman tells him she's an illegal immigrant and will be deported if she goes to the police. He literally says, "Too bad" and continues walking away. It's only when she tells him about the murdered baby that he shows interest. He doesnt really comfort her

In Widowmaker, Frank repeatedly tells the bait girl to wait at the crime scene. She wears his coat (bc its snowing and she's in a mini and halter top) but we aren't shown the actual scene where he gives it to her. He lets her come with him, but later tells us that he was playing along bc her story was fishy.
He gives her his coat, but otherwise does not comfort her. He doesnt offer any assistance when theyre walking a mile in the snow (probably in heels)

In Barracuda he tells the male victim to wait for the cops or the feds before leaving him. The narration tells us that 'if a guy's that desperate to avoid the cops, i usually let them have him'. He does not offer comfort at the scene. Later he gets information out of the man over lunch (that he presumably bought) then leaves when the man has nothing more to offer, telling the audience that he 'can only take so much whining'

Conclusion: Ennis' Frank is not particularly sympathetic to victims. He is just there for the criminals. He exhibits more ... Something in The Slavers and with Galinka, but those were both unusual circumstances involving children. He was a bit harsher with the male victim, but he doesnt treat female victims much better.
He's probably not the best version to work off of for this prompt, unless your victim is a child or has information on crimes involving children

Also OP dont be afraid to tell us to take it to the discussion page if we get too tangential. I could discuss how each creator draws/writes women till long after it's ceased being relevant

OP here, and the discussion is fine! I haven't read as much Punisher as I would like, so it's cool to hear which ones are good. I am curious if there's much record of how he interacts with heroines though. Most of the discussion has been on victims and villains, but what about when he is working with them, like a woman Daredevil?

This seems consistant with another Ennis run where Joan the Mouse asks Frank why he makes bullets go at the nasty men and Frank responds that he hates them (the nasty men) Joan is surprised bc she thought Frank would say that he wants to make a better world for people who arent nasty men.
If frank had a response, it's not readily available in his quote section
