Eminem has primed audiences for his long-awaited Relapse with a bloody video for the single “3 A.M.,” a first look at a bloody iPhone game and now a bloody Marvel comic book featuring Shady squaring off against gun-wielding antihero the Punisher. You can read the edited comic — the cuss words are just “####” — on the Marvel site now. Eminem’s love of the Marvel Universe’s skull-shirted vigilante is no secret, as the rapper recently appeared on two different covers of XXL’s June issue, dressed as the Punisher.

Eminem/Punisher: Kill You was written by Fred Van Lente and drawn by Salvador Larroca, both comic-book vets. The first half of the comic comes with the June XXL as a special collectors edition; the second half can be nabbed at Marvel Digital Comics Unlimited for free starting today.

The Punisher is one of the most one-dimensional Marvel characters I can think of. Reminds me of the Archie crossover a few years back

It's too bad this crossover (http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c342/ARNie00/comic%20scans/sp.jpg)
never happened...

If you'd read the article you'd know he's protecting Eminem.

The entire comic can be read online over at Marvel.
But don't blame me for wasting twenty minutes on the worst piece of garbage that Marvel has ever allowed to go to print.
Not only was the art below standards expected, the storyline was pathetic. Just because Em envisions himself some tough as nails badass, who can run around with a chainsaw, doesn't mean it's worth putting into print.

I like his music, but his involvement with Marvel this way lowered my respect for both camps.
