A unique piece offered from Sideshow Collectibles of the Punisher and Daredevil in the middle of a standard "misunderstanding" that seems to happen all of the time in comic books.

Zimm's 2 Cents

Points in Favor:
  • A statue of two heroes in battle is different for a statue
  • I like the base of the statue.
  • I do like the actual pose of the two characters - though the Punisher's left leg looks awkward.
  • Decent paint job and attention to details.
  • Punisher's face (though I'm not thrilled with it) does look like someone born from NJ/NY area with his background
Points Against
  • Their faces - something bothers me about Daredevils face.
  • The Punisher is wearing a trench coat.
  • The safety warning that says that this is not for kids
  • The Punisher only has a "pistol" and a knife against Daredevil? What's that about?
Recommendation: Pass. Doesn't really grab me as something that I would want in my collection; however, it is a decent statue.
