A teacher told me that this was a symbol used by the Nazi's.
It looks like whichever comic company prometed it missed out on that bit of information or they are nazi's!!!!!

Or they do not believe it is anything like the N word debate.

Look up the Nazi Death Head.

The second picture in the second row catches my eye btw.
I do not know all of the details all I know is that is is a hidden thingy that many people do not catch or recognize. I do know that a jewish survivor of the holocaust does not appreciate this comic... (If they met the german secret police or know about, which I am sure they would)

Anyway like I said in pointless talking I am gonna crash...

Just did... It doesn't look anything like any of the Punisher skulls. The Punisher skull is just any stylized drawing of a half-skull that the artist decides on.

However, having just looked at the Nazi Death Head, I have to wonder why the Nazis were so damn unoriginal. It's clearly nothing more than a stylized Jolly Roger, and the swastika is a well-known steal, too. Did they have any original symbols, or were they too busy being dicks?

As for the second picture in the second row, that's probably the most well known of the symbols because it's the one used in the recent movie. Not sure if it's from a comic, though.
