the Punisher

Wow... I guess I can be really dark when I want to.
There's no real story for this one. I was just sitting down, watching the Lord of the Rings. I noticed that, even though the ring is technically an "It," they kept on referring to it as if it was an actual being with actual power; as if it was a different person than its master. Does it have a power of its own?
What kind of sick, twisted being would give his body and immortal soul up for the power to control?
And, so, here is the Ring... in human form. Reflecting the fires and chasms from which it was spawned, and the darkness that it uses.
