Jon Bernthal Is The New Punisher!

The Punisher is coming to Daredevil...and it's about to get AWESOME!!!

One of my friends suggested that Kurt Sutter from Sons of Anarchy should write the scripts!  Another believed that was an amazing idea, and thought we should start a petition.  I agree! #KurtSutterForPunisher!!!

Jon Bernthal, best known for his portrayal as Shane on The Walking Dead is going to join Daredevil for season 2 on NetFlix, which will be released in 2016.  Here's what Jeph Loeb, Marvel's Head of Television, had to say on his hiring:

"Jon Bernthal brings an unmatched intensity to every role he takes on, with a potent blend of power, motivation and vulnerability that will connect with audiences. Castle’s appearance will bring dramatic changes to the world of Matt Murdock and nothing will be the same.”

The release of this news didn't specify whether or not Frank Castle (a.k.a. The Punisher) would be a friend or foe to Matt Murdock.  In the comics, they aren't outright foes, but do see things differently.  My guess is that they're going to be butting heads more than sharing a drink, at least that's what I got from the new logo for the show's season two.  Check it out:

Notice the bullet holes? I'm guessing that they don't get along very well when they meet!  So what are your thoughts on Marvel bringing in Bernthal as The Punisher?  Good idea?  Great idea? Yeah, bad idea isn't even an option in this question.  Let me know your thoughts in the comments section below!
