SECRETS REVEALED!

Tortured literally, metaphorically and otherwise by faces old and new, this is one issue PUNISHER fans won't want to miss!

I just love how fast paced this is. It's brutal too which is a big plus. Frank is doing Kingpin's work...but now he knows who he is. Won't be for much longer.

after so long, someone understanding the punisher and frank as whole like benjamin percy is doing in this run is a fucking blessing. the art continues to be one of my favorite things in this run, the cover from checchetto keeps being peak and julius ohta is on another level. i keep liking this story, it might not seem like much but honestly, the contradictions of what kingpin wants micro to control into frank vs knowing him so well are keeping me hooked. the gore and violence from tombstone is so visceral here... yeah i am loving this.

La grapa más salvaje y gore hasta ahora, esto no hace nada más que mejorar más si cabía!

"it doesn't feel good to kill. It doesn't feel bad either. It feels necessary. It feels like breathing."
