The price of getting what you want, is getting what once you wanted.
From The Spectacular Spider-Man Annual #1. Spider-Man's a fugitive in the wake of the Civil War, and Mary Jane has just run into a one-time fling, who's since become an agent of SHIELD. Threatened with arrest and imprisonment, she nonetheless brushes off an offer of immunity, as it's contingent on her turning against Peter. Luckily, Peter's tipped off about the sting, and proceeds to rescue his wife before she's taken into custody. Still, he tries to get her to take the deal.




From Spider-Man: Reign #3. Peter's an old man, and Mary Jane is long dead and buried. Battered and beaten, he takes a moment to remember the thing that finally broke his spirit, his failure to be there for his wife, when he most needed to be.



Sorry about the crummy scan. Hardcovers are a bitch.

It's strange to see how much Frank's characterization has shifted, after being written by Ennis. At one time, he was a guy who actually had friends, a dog, and could reminisce about his son's old cap gun. I'm not sure if you'd see much of that in Punisher comics nowadays, though Remender definitely did some stuff to show Frank still had some humanity left.
