#SpiderMan #Punisher
616 Spider Man: You can’t just murder people!
Punisher Spider-Man: I missed the part where that’s my problem.
Best comment
Spider- carnage has entered the chat room.
@@leoredfield2645 Yeah, to build a reality bomb.
Mr Diktovitch: Gimme Rent!
@@leoredfield2645 Andrew Garfield spiderman has also entered the chat
Murdered villains AND a happily ever after? Win-win for this parker.
I mean honestly yeah. Kinda like the best case scenario. I don’t enjoy watching Spider-Man kill, but it always seems to make things turn out better for Peter.
Big time. To hell with the Sinister Six and Goblin can go f*** himself!
Wow. That not a bad story. I so wanna make a story out of the spider punisher but make my own anti-hero
This Peter Parker Got the best future any Peter parker could ask for. Hell, if Uncle Ben randomly revives he basically becomes the dream of all Spider-men in the multiverse
@@carsonshutts3599 I enjoy every second of seeing Parker unalive evil people
This is probably the first comics EVER that Peter and Gwen actually married and live happily with supposedly no tragedy.
Wow. Unbelievable. After all these years.
In the Mexican alternate continuity Spider-man comics, they did marry I think.
Looks like this world's Peter Parker got what he wanted unlike his Earth-616 counterpart
House of M Spidey was married to Gwen and was happy.
Lol the comic ends with "the end?" I assume we're going to eventually see Peter take down the new Punisher
@@mujtabaellari2597 That was a sad one when he had to lose that again! That was a great story. Can't wait for MCU to adapt that years from now...
4:42 “That’s right, he killed the Kingpin.” I was amazed by how casually Arris said that. Seriously, I don’t even know if Frank is capable of accomplishing that job.
Because he can't at least not without some serious help and prep time
Daredevil did once in an old "What If".
Though it was more owed to Wilson being arrogant/careless... Matt shot him point blank with a gun.
Punisher/Frank even offered to help him escape from it in the comic.
Damn
Frank did it when he was Venom. It's a What If storyline.
Imagine Spider-Man No Way Home ending with Peter Parker finding Mysterio alone, then shooting him dead immediately and it´s the Punisher version
It CAn be
If they add multiverse traveler plot
That Will be awesome
That would be badass
That tomboy jr doesn't deserve to be the punisher
@@yaqinmalul1364 I’m pretty sure this story came out after the movie started production
@@aadn. yeah this story' still new
I want this suit to be in the next Spider-man game.
Better yet, in the live action Spider-verse movie
@@stankaye3861 that would never happen
true
@@Blackrage843 yee
Prolly gonna be a loong time before they release a new game
pretty much everyone is becoming everyone at this stage.
Always has been
Nothing else to do at this point.
I just became you!
Frankencastle was better
I identify as a potato
Damn bro, even in a universe where someone else becomes the punisher, Frank Castle is still fated to a shitty existence.
I learned recently that, in old literature/stories, "meeting your destiny" doesn't necessarily mean a happy ending.. it usually means meeting your doom/death or something of the like. Hence Darth Vader and other characters in the original Star Wars trilogy urging Luke to "face his destiny".
I guess that applies to Frank Castle. His destiny is to become The Punisher.
This guns on his web shooters are so FIRE!!
I totally agree with you.
Ikr
it reminds me of dead shot in suicide squad
Of course, They’re fire arms.
DUDE THEY ARE DOPE
The Punishing Spider is such a COOL idea. It's even better because he doesn't just go insane. Peter just makes a couple different choices which spiral into way more different choices making it more believable that the story would go this way.
This is honestly one of my favorites what ifs stories because I like it when they make heros go anti heros, because I like it when Spidey dosen't hold back, its satisfying
Forget the Punisher, he’s practically a Street Judge with web shooters. He’d do very well in 2000 AD.
If Snyder directed a Spider-Man film this is how he would of made him.
And I think he would do a great job at that aesthetic with spiderman
@@ViewtifulBr080 you missed the joke.
He would ruin Spider-Man lol.
Hack Snyder would do a terrible job of it
@@ViewtifulBr080 He would give us a humourless suicidal emo Peter Parker cause let's not forget jokes, joy & colors are for "kids" according to him & his fanbase.
😂🤣
@@957kakashi hahha synder bad drrr drr
What if Peter Parker became Punisher?
...You mean Spider-Man Noir?
Actually I think In the spider man noir comics he doesn’t kill
@@PatGon Spider-Man Noir carries around a gun and he killed Vulture with it
@@rnspurgn3015 oh my bad
@@rnspurgn3015 didn't vulture eat his uncle Ben so I think it's justified
@@adaman.shr.3538 didn’t say it wasn’t justified, I just said he killed someone
I would love to see the sequel to this comic involving Frank Castle
Would love that too.
I imagine it would involve Frank getting bitten by the same radioactive spider or a similar one... or perhaps using the Venom symbiote to follow Peter's footsteps/style fully.
This legitimately made me sad though... Seems Frank is destined to become The Punisher no matter what.
"You know what happens when one day this shit, this web as they, keeps coming out of your hand? It changes everything man, who you are, your family, your purpose and your love."
Finally, Peter and Gwen get a happy ending.
Would’ve loved to see this badass variant in the spider-verse war
I read this one a while back,they a bit behind but I’m glad they did a episode though
Essentially, he's got a better life. His rogues are dead, meaning no psychopath to put his loved ones in danger, he willingly hangs up the costume and lives happily with his love, Gwen Stacy.
"I see this as an absolute win!"
if i had to be any version of Spider-man, this is the one i would definitely want to be
This is another WHAT IF STORY?
IM INTERESTED
The Punishing Spider is now one of my MOST favorite Spider-Man Alternates!
I know killing the villains doesn't make you better than them and isn't the hero's code but I am a fan of the punisher's type of justice. It's just cool, satisfying and just straight to the point. Sometimes I am infuriated seeing the same villains come back over and over again
Punisher's way of justice is a lot better since it ensures that criminals won't hurt innocents ever again
If they were to one day pick up where they left off with a sequel to this comic it could center on Harry as the Goblin tryna kill Peter and Frank as the next Punisher who's tryna kill Harry and Peter's struggle against the both of them who both serve as the mirror to his actions and as well as the consequences for them.
Yeah, and that sequel is when he creates the Iconic blue and red costume, finding redemption by stopping them both without resorting to his old ways of killing.
@@ziephel-6780 Ew
Spider-Man has a cool new suit.
Ending those villains is both the most realistic and best possible outcome in comics. Where villains of the week have their moment in the spotlight who knows how much countless damage they cause in their selfishness and lives they take that's pushed to the side. I'm glad that Punisher Spider-Man was taken into this account and that is given a good result in turn with Gwen alive. He's earned his happy ending by saving lives by ending evil ones.
This comic proves the real reason why heroes dont kill because there stories would only be 10 or less issues long if they killed their most dangerous enemies but honestly i like how this peter parkers story ended.
He eliminated those who threatened him or his family, retires as spiderman, and gets to live out the rest of his days in peaceful with the women he loves.
I love this peters attitude as well he knows he cant stop crime even if he killed every thug in the city its just human nature. He dosnt care, all thats left is ordianry drug dealers and gangsters that the police should can handle and peter is fine with that.
Also this peter is not a wise cracking optimist like 616 peter. He dosnt want or sees himself as a hero especially with the daily bugle making him out to be a cold blooded killer even though that wasnt the case. This peter just wanted to protect his loved ones and in the end he gets his wish and is fine letting go of being spiderman.
This one was really underwhelming to me for some reason. Aside from Peter killing his villains and Gwen surviving, nothing really groundbreaking or interesting happened. I expected it to dive more into the broken psyche of a Peter Parker who completely lost it but all we got was him just occasionally talking about guns. But still keep it up with the What If videos. I love hearing your narration!
I mean this is a mix of frank and Peter frank isn't like that at all
@@wallsterrence let's just say this peter Parker has an iron will to kill villains heck he doesn't even care if he's alter ego is vilified by the press and media
Haven't we already seen a broken peter parker done like a thousand times already? We've seen Peter suffer so much it actually felt refreshing to see his story end happily.
What would be the point of seeing another Peter Parker, suffer again, and again, and again…
Thank you I felt the same way. Felt odd sure Peter could have a happy life but by doing the wrong thing. I feel Spidey killing should have way bigger changes to the wider universe. Overall this felt the same just instead of red and blue its black and white.
This what if is interesting but I wonder is the reason Spider-Punisher gave up being Spider-Punisher was partially out of guilt because he was forced to kill his roommates dad
I love that it didn't go the route of Peter killing every criminal he fought just those who were extremely violent. It's very logical and kinda connects to the character of Peter. Also it ending on a happy note was amazing as well.
I think this iteration makes a LOT more sense for a lethal interpretation of Spider-Man than the assassin one.
So for the next issues if they continue on this what if, the real Punisher dons the spider suit and essentially being the public enemy of nyc
I hoped that this what if spider punisher gets a marvel legends assortment figure someday in 2022 perhaps?!
Heck yeah gotta love variant
"Spider-Man is the farthest thing from an anti-hero."
Actually if memory of OSP's Trope Talk on anti-heroes is correct, then Spidey is actually just about a textbook definition of a classical anti-hero. Due to how often he struggles with self doubt and uses his head to overcome problems. Among other things.
I totally agree with you.
Then by that antiquated definition, pretty much every Marvel and DC superhero is an anti-hero.
Yeah I was about to mention that too lmao.
He's gonna have quite the revelation when he finds out Peter Parkers is basically one of the first if not codifiers of that trope.
An anti hero is someone who is well not heroic, its not defined charachteristic as depression lol
@@hefoughtabear118 I didn't give a definition, I gave examples of qualities Peter has that makes him not very different from the very first anti-heroes in various stories... mostly mythology.
The actual definition of an anti-hero is loose, generic, and completely dependent on what the idea of a "Hero" is (something that can change over time, mind you)... so yeah, there are a lot of people that can fit under that banner.
If Spiderman would die by that short fall even before “cake icing” water then I think I totally misunderstood Spiderman powers
He REALLY wouldn't have at all in ANY way. Not at all as his spider-man powers are VERY strong completely!
We need this suit in Marvel Spider Man 2
I hope the sequel has Peter make his original red and blue and Duke it out with punisher
Finally! This scenario feels so vindicated and hits right in the feels.
This is actually really awesome
Refreshingly new storyline.
Thanks for the amazing video!
🙌
So there is a version of Peter who still have Gwen. Good to know.
There actually some of then, not just one
Other Peter versions who have a gwen is earth 51838(Peter gives up being spider man), House of M, earth 16220(Spidey universe).
It's actually a spider that exist with a skull image on its back too. I forgot the name but it exist
It's called the Noble False Widow
@@AifDaimon ua-cam.com/video/zNvODY_6IXM/v-deo.html
@@AifDaimon ua-cam.com/video/dSkls-WE3qM/v-deo.html
@@AifDaimon it's one of them
Miguel O'Hara : Spiderman 2099
I personally like this version of the character along with the assassin spiderman version for both still were protecting and saving innocents while killing his enemies!
Why did this show up in my recommended so early???? Not complaining tho ;)
What I took away from this, and the one where Frank's family wasn't killed... is that Frank's destiny will always lead him to becoming the Punisher, one way or another.
I learned recently that, in old literature/stories, "meeting your destiny" doesn't necessarily mean a happy ending.. it usually means meeting your doom/death or something of the like. Hence Darth Vader and other characters in the original Star Wars trilogy urging Luke to "face his destiny".
I guess that applies to Frank Castle. His destiny is to become The Punisher.
Danmm he killed them in a chill way without opening it
Wish Batman could be like this 🙂🙂✌️
In this universe Peter win big lol. Love to see it.
I’m literally writing a fanfic story on the marvel and dc universes combined into one new universe similar the arrowverse new multiverse. Spider-Man in this would be a Spider-Man would kill his enemies but he would ONLY kill those who he had given so many chances of redemption to change but they wouldn’t change. So this Spider-Man is a Spider-Man who saves people but he acknowledges that he can’t save everyone and he won’t be afraid to kill
I feel like half of What If's are just alternate universe Spider-Man stories.
I really wish Insomniac games would add a short separate DLC where you play as this spider-man. Spidey and Punisher are my two favourite characters from Marvel.
There is a what if about if Thor was raised by frost giants. In there the frost giants kill the Asgardians and Thor is raised by Loki's father Laufey. It's a really cool story that i hope they visit again someday.
1:16
Man, I just love this comic❗️about time someone discusses this comic👏🏼
man this design is very different than spiderverse comic version of punisher spider man
7:16 There was a Star Wars reference in the form of figures of R2 D2 and c3po beside the TV if you noticed
Goddamn, even in someone else's story Frank can't get a break
Liked it; it showed how a different mindset could happen when you read a quote.
7:22 I love the Star Wars droids there
I have got to admit even for a what- if you definitely can't deny that design Punisher Spider-Man nice very nice
What a cool suit
Somehow Frank Castle still gets screwed over
He’s destined to wear the skull
The Marvel universe sees that the Punisher must exist.
that suit is awesome id love to see it in the next insomniac spider man game
this is definitely one of my new favorite spiderman what if story bc it is one of the few comics where peter actually gets a happy ending
I read the title and the first thing came to mind - "he stopped holding back"☠
This is my favourite premise
It’s a master piece
Thanks for this this is a nice… And much appreciated.
😊
Punisher taking over all superheroes is the real Secret Invasion.
If Marvel becomes good at making "dark" comics then DC will be screwed.
I would recommend The Immortal Hulk.
That comic series was pure Lovecraftian Cosmic Psychological Body Horror.
Dude you have no idea, marvel has some DARK stuff. Maybe not as dark now because of Disney though.
Legit Marvel Ruin is one of the darkest and most somber comics they’ve ever put out
@@Dude-dd9zy they still put out very dark stuff Disney or not. DC and marvel both have DARK comics.
@@Dude-dd9zy Absolute Carnage was the last all out blood splattered dark comic!
Ahh, two of the three pinnacles of comic hero morality combined. A punishing spider would be terrifyingly effective.
I always found it funny how Punisher was meant to be a villain, now he’s considered an anti-hero (much like Deadpool & Harley Quinn).
Funnier still is how the third pinnacle Wolverine fits in. Punisher respects Wolverine because he’s the best there is at what he does (even if what he does isn’t very nice). Wolverine respects Spider-Man for he ability to keep his hands & conscience clean. Spider-Man is always pulling his punches so he doesn’t become the Punisher (even though he wants to).
The Basso brothers created this concept. Let that be known! #bassbrotherscreatedpunisherspiderman
I remember buying this book... we need a Funko pop of this.
I love the Homage to Amazing Spider-Man # 50.
I hope this version of Peter Parker gets a live action movie or a Marvel what if episode he seems really cool and is one of my favourite alternate versions of spider man.
Is that an image of Ralph Hinkley on his wall??? The Greatest American Hero promo poster for the old 80s show?
the suit is very cool
spider skull designs are just rad.
Would love to see this as a live action film.
That's a solid deal on Peter's end.
So in this universe Peter got to live happily ever after unlike his Prime counterpart
Spiderman has always been my favorite hero. Then to twist this to allow for the . . .stop power of the punisher is amazing. Though the punisher isnt just about guns its his tenacity, endurance, tacttition and intelligence to take on more than human capable.
@3:29 never knew that using the mighty soldering iron we can make armour, high explosives, armour piercing incendiary and EMP.
*”BUT UR THE ONE GETTIN SMOKED GOBBY”*
Yeah, i always looked at it like the heroes (with no killing policy) were the recipients of their own, made hells. Maybe once, rarely twice, but that third time (without a doubt) the bad guy needs to "go". BAM!
Where is this Spiderman in the Spider-verse? Yoooo
This Spider-Man could essentially be the Spider-Man from Sega Genesis game The Revenge of Shinobi👍

Edit: Yo variant this was a solid pick 👌 I had no idea they did this!
Ngl best what if so far! For spidey that is
This is such a badass idea
Bro this Spider-Man Punisher is probably my favorite now, taking the top spot over symbiotic Spider-Man
Can you do history of DC's Shining Knight and Marvel's Black Knight?
If you seen the recent episodes of season 7 of the Flash, can you do history of Impulse, XS, Psych, Fuerza, Steadfast, Chillblaine, Abracadabra, Rainbow Raider, Mirror Master and Top in your next video?
YESSS never knew this is something I wanted
*BANG!*
"Everybody gets One..."
Waiting for this to turn into a What If...? episode.
I actually love this story
Is this the first time Peter has had a happy ending? 😦
Two punishers?!? Hell yeah
Favorite what if story.
Make a video on Destroyer's origin and his powers
Dude that would be awesome Spider-Man with the morale compass of the punisher
Wouldn't Spider-Man being the Punisher just be Peter giving into Venom or Carnage.
This was interesting, but if we must see Spider-Man kill his enemies, I enjoyed the stories of being Venom or Carnage.
