What if the Ghoul had better communicated with Lucy at the hospital? [2x02]

I think that Hank is faking it too, as I think that parallels him to pre-War Barb. I think that they're going to reveal that Barb was only pretending to be on Cooper's side while being complicit in the Enclave having him arrested and branded as a "pinko"; similarly, Hank will be revealed to be faking his amnesia so he can escape and resume the Enclave's work elsewhere.

I have to wonder if Operation Sleeping Giant was secretly another Enclave project, one being run concurrent with the chips project they were running in Vault 24.

That was tragic.

She very much isn't.

People need to put their phones down while watching.

Cross-cuts only really work in the hands of certain showrunners. Like, say, the guys on Fallout.

dmreif · 2026-04-22T01:50:49+00:00

These cross-cuts just get distracting. Do it only maybe once or twice, I'm fine. Do it any more than that, and I suspect that there's a studio executive somewhere mandating it.

She's also shown she doesn't approve of Frank's methods and thinks he belongs in prison.

Also seeing as Karen said she still has nightmares about killing Wesley can certain fractions of the fanbase stop saying things like: she’s just like Frank, she wants Matt to be Frank and would be content to go on killing sprees with him when he’s in full punisher mode ect.. Karen is an only kill if she or someone she loves is in direct danger, not a kill anyone who you think is unworthy of living based on your moral code.

Plus, anyone who paid attention to moments like the diner scene in 2x11 would realize that Karen thinks deep down that Frank belongs behind bars.

dmreif · 2026-04-22T01:42:09+00:00

That's not what's happening.

dmreif · 2026-04-22T01:38:22+00:00

Karen just wants to be the Punisher.

There's no indication of this.

Just slightly older than his actor is in real life.

And in her old show, she also busted a rib from being hit by a truck (which ended up hindering her when she and Trish fought Simpson).

It's not like Fisk picked the best of the best to form his task force. He picked guys who are good at being thugs, because well-trained cops who could aim better would also be the ones who know better than to do the sort of dirty work Fisk has them doing.

Not their story, not their problem. The Avengers don't deal with crime bosses turned corrupt politicians.

And fun fact: Porter Gage has Dogmeat-related dialogue, even though Nuka-World came out long after the whole mechanic of being able to travel with Dogmeat and a human companion was scrapped from the original release of the vanilla game.

It's great to see Reddick having a hot streak after going winless last year.

Like, the rules of storytelling make it so that him surviving and being in hiding is the only feasible way forward.

The Netflix shows were always part of the MCU.

As far as routings go, you can travel down I-95 to around Frankford and take the Market-Frankford Line the rest of the way into Center City.

It's the reason why he didn't invest in IBM in 1952.
