The Punisher later vanishes in mid-battle, as the Surfer has gone into hiding and Galactus needs to resort to other means to find him.
Good stuff, but there's that bit of an odd disconnect that you sometimes find between the lines of work from this era. It would be interesting to see Kirby's full margin notes from this issue, as a few things seem to have been garbled. But then you see a full-page portrait of Galactus and you really stop caring about the words so much...

Something happened to the Punisher between his first and second FF appearances. Namely, a growth spurt. When first seen, he was a shrimpy little guy, like humanoid bulldog. Here, he seems like a full-sized Kirby techno-brute. I wonder why the change?
To say nothing about how much he changed in the 1970s, with the skull on his chest....
Ah, someone had to say it.
