About an hour ago (Sunday), an attack took place in the city of Hadera. The two terrorists, Arabs who look like ISIS men, arrived on Herbert Samuel Street in the city, and opened fire on passers-by, who got off a bus that stopped at the station. Two Israelis were killed and six others were injured, two of them in serious and stable condition. .
The terrorist, who was killed by police forces, wore an illustration of a skull that originated in one of the Marvel figures called: “The Punisher “ (“The Punisher”).
The terrorist from the attack in Hadera
The Punisher is a fictional character of an anti-hero, who appears in the comic books in the Marvel Comics universe, this is a fairly popular anti-hero.
Marvel’s illustrator, John Rumita, decided to enlarge the skull so that it would occupy most of the villain’s chest, just as the terrorist wore.
Some sources point out that the design was inspired by a symbol worn by a Whitcong sniper, while others claim that the Punisher’s logo was based on the character of the demon Olivier, a fictional supervillain from Marvel Comics.
Meaning of the skull symbol
Aside from making the Punisher instantly recognizable, the Death Head skull symbol also serves other purposes. It is a symbol of injustice that returns to criminals. The symbol is usually the last thing his victims see. The skull is a reminder of a time when the comic book character spent time in Vietnam: there, he used the symbol to mock the soldiers who captured him.
Although there is almost nothing to say about the meaning of the “Punisher” logo in the world of comics, but in fact, the symbol is widely used by quite a few organizations and individuals, with slightly different symbolism. Many of his fans belong to the U.S. Armed Forces or the police.
The elongated white skull with the long teeth painted in Iraq and Afghanistan could be seen on a variety of surfaces, from buildings and vehicles to equipment. The emblem is a fairly popular military tattoo. In addition, it appears in movies about the military and even serves as a wallpaper image. This is probably more familiar than the punisher himself.
