Our expert's notes

Released in 2017 to promote the "Punisher" TV series showing on Netflix, this portrait style screenprint is the classic image of Marvel's controversial vigilante. A fan of the character, Jock said of the commission: "I've always wanted to take a crack at The Punisher and this was a unique opportunity to do so, tying it into Jon Bernthal's super tough performance in the show. The concept started with the figure far more hidden, wearing night vision goggles appearing out of the smoke, but morphed into the clearer image we see now. I wanted him to appear as dangerous as possible. Deadly." Hand-numbered #12 out of a Artist Proof edition print run of 50, it has also been signed by Jock and is accompanied by three original preliminary sketches showing a close up the character and variations of his weapon. (From the Private Archive of the Artist, Jock.)
