A man who was heavily armed when he was arrested at Phoenix Comicon on Thursday told police he was "The Punisher" and planned to kill bad police officers and a performer who was scheduled to be at the event, court records show.

Newly released records outline the arsenal Mathew Sterling had been carrying when he was arrested: two 45-caliber handguns, a .454-caliber handgun, and a 12-gauge shotgun, all fully loaded; a combat knife; pepper spray; and throwing stars.
.......
Police say in court records he was targeting Jason David Frank, an actor and mixed martial artist who is best known for his role as the original green Power Ranger.


Police said Sterling "set a calendar reminder in his phone to alert him to kill the victim at Comicon on May 25th."

some people are crazy
the main reason amy jo johnson wont do morphicon is because a stalker sent her similar threats years ago and was never caught

wanting to distance herself from the role that made her famous because she wanted to be a more serious actress is also a big reason
though in recent years she has been more willing to embrace her legacy even getting a cameo in the new movie

I wanna meet JDF. I hung out with Johnny Yong Bosch at Anime Boston this year and he was like JDF is a really cool dude.

Sucks they're the only rangers still relevant today.

Jason David Frank is always a class act. I've got so much respect for that guy. It would have been a huge tragedy if this gunman had got anywhere near him. ...a huge tragedy for the gunman, because Tommy would have kicked his ass!

Yeah I have a hard time picturing JDF not pulling out some ninja moves and stomping that jokers ass

Sucks that that useless neckbeard fat fuck had to go and ruin bringing in prop weapons for everyone else whose cosplay kinda requires a weapon in order to complete the whole thing.

Exactly.

Some dude threatened to shoot up a Pokemon tournament in Boston 2-3 years ago.

Since then, all cons have gotten insanely strict in Boston with not only prop weapons, but just general entrance.

For one, I had no idea Phoenix Comic-Con was already going on, and that I was missing it. I didn't need to be reminded.

Two: Holy crap. It feels way crazier when something like this happens "close to home", kind of literally in this case. So bizzare that if I had been able to make it, I would've been so close to something like this happening. Also a strange feeling that my Comic-Con's on the news now because of this.

I remember last time I went, they were really cracking down on prop weapons, requiring you to have some stupid orange strap on even obvious toy swords, so I wonder what's gonna happen at Phoenix Comic-Con next year now...

Amy Jo hasn't been relevant since Flashpoint ended 5 years ago. And the one from RPM was never even relevant in the first place as a ranger since it was by when PR had become niche. She's more known for being the main in iZombie.

JDF and JYB are still everywhere from almost 25 years ago.

and what exactly has either JYB or JDF done that surpasses flashpoints popularity?
nothing really
JYB is a popular voice actor but voice acting isnt exactly main stream celebrity status
voice actors dont exactly get swarmed on the streets
more people would recognize amy on the street these days than any other PR actor

JDF is doing MMA and JYB is still voice acting. AJJ is basically retired outside cameos, and TV movies with other has beens and hasn't done anything major since Flashpoint.

I said still relevant today. Not how successful they became at any point.

Probably because of how insane it is. Dude was gonna attempt to Ninja Gaiden him if the shotty didn't work. That means his guy actively considered that the Green Ranger may have bullet deflecting powers or something and that is low key hilarious. It's not funny... or it shouldn't be... but reading that list of weapons you have to "stop and consider the following" like an old Bill Nye segment.

The main reason this turned out the way it did is because Sgt Nichols called Phoenix PD. If she or any other civilian had called police it would have been met with an "OK we'll look into it"

Being the douchiest of a bunch of do gooders means he was a 9/10 on the nice scale.

From what I've seen, he's not though. He strikes me as a very preachy, insecure, and condescening person. That might just be me.

Still not a motive to murder him though.

I don't know why, but this is amazingly funny to me. You're not even so committed to the Act of Killing that you can't remember this shit on your own? You have to set a literal reminder in your phone's calendar? What kind of notification does one use for that?

Well JDF doesn't deserve to be killed no matter what but you're right he was quite the bully asshole back then. Honestly he didn't become a decent guy until he realized he could make tons of money off being the Green Ranger.

The real question would be, what would he have done had he missed it?

Like, he let his phone run out of battery and the next day is like "Shit! I knew there was something I wanted to do yesterday!"

He might have went out of other performers . They said he listed more people, maybe they were just not that famous.
