There is much to applaud in a book such as this. Campbell does an excellent job bringing to the surface an important facet of Christian practice that has often gone unnoticed by those writiers that have been drawing attention to the biblical concept of the principalities and powers (Wink, et al). Campbell shows how the Christian practices of preaching forms the church as a community capable of resisting the powers and how preaching is itself, one of the forms of resistance the church engages in. This is a helpful complement to many recent contributions to political theology which center on the Eucharist as a resource for the church confronting the powers. Campbell helps to reintegrate word and sacrament through a fresh focus on how the proclamation of the word is always a challenge to the powers that be (despite how we may fall short of that vision).Binding Type: Paperback

Vintage Castle
Garth Ennis renders one of his hectic stories with Frank Castle coming back to his origins. The first story deploys Frank's childhood and the unexpected consequences of it later on. I humbly believe the second part(The cell), is the best of this issue. It narrates the ultimate vengeance of Castle against those who took the lifes of his family, several years ago in the middle of a shooting at day light in Central Park. A mention must be done of the art in The Cell. The pencils of Lewis Larosa, the Inks & Finishes of Scott Koblish and Raúl Treviño's colors, leave nothing to desire and accomplish to portrait that classic look of Castle as a somewhat mature/old man still capable of hell when it comes to seek revenge for his family.
The End, however, which puts Castle in a dystopian future of a post-nuclear bombing, fails to blend smoothly Garth Ennis' script with the caricaturesque art from Richard Corben and Lee Loughridge. There is a dissonance between this very old Frank Castle in an apocalyptic environment and the drawings that for some reason maintain a gap with previous artists.
As a whole, From First to Last is totally worthy. Garth Ennis is back to team with Castle and that's all what counts.

This Is the Punisher
Format: Kindle
Punisher was supposed to be just a villain of the month, but there was always something there. Marvel never quite knew what to do with him, but Frank Castle had staying power. He still doesn’t fit into the Marvel universe, and he certainly doesn’t fit into the MCU, and these stories show exactly why. This is a great character and when handled correctly you get stories that stay with you. Garth Ennis knew how to tell those stories. I hope one day someone else will come along and give us more.

Punisher Max From First to Last
3 hardcore stories about Punisher when he was a kid, when he gets himself sent to Rikers to get the guys most responsible for killing his family, and after a nuclear war destroys the planet. So you seem him from being around 10 years old until he's a very old and dying from radiation. There is almost nobody left alive but there is still some evil that needs to be punished.
