Fighting moves from the gunslinger!
It just takes us through a few of Punisher's fights where he dealt with criminals using various hand-to-hand fighting techniques.
My favourite part was the little 8 ball that went off panel.

Pages dedicated to the Punisher’s arsenal.
I’m sure ‘the boys’ loved this one. It was just fine for me.
I didn’t read the prose pages.
Lots of Jim Lee art.

Did not read issues #16-19.
Interestingly, there was only a page of art after issue #16. It was cool, Punisher squaring off against Captain America!

I suppose due to having an MC like Punisher, you need the villains to be more extreme.
I guess it just felt worse because Spider-Man was around.
I'm also not sure what the point of the story was, like the meaning or message behind it.
Frank felt a similarity between his and Hartmann's mentality.
And felt his loneliness after seeing Spidey and MJ share a quiet, comforting moment...

Hartmann, a Neo Nazi, is trying to spread their faith to the masses.
JJJ is NOT happy with that.
Somehow Microchip finds a list of the group's targets and Punisher, with a ‘right place, right time’ Spider-Man saves a family.
Offended by what JJJ wrote, the Neo-Nazi’s take the Bugle and its workers hostage!
I missed the classic witty Spidey dialogue.

Funny how much mocking Doom does towards Kingpin when his own plan against Punisher failed…
Anyway, Bushwacker beats Frank enough for him to see a vision of his wife telling him not to give up.
Then Bushwacker’s wife, after Punisher crashes through their home, screams that 'violence only begets violence’.
Strange how unloving BW was but is all emotion when his wife decides to leave…

Quite a bit of on-the-nose commentary going on.
I think I’ve read a previous story with Bushwacker, and I didn’t particularly enjoy his character. This ish didn’t change that.
Not that you’re meant to like his character anyway.
This leads off of the Punisher issues as Doom tells Kingpin he left Punisher alive to mess with his business.
The ish ends in the middle of a fight...

Frank survives a croc attack while Logan gives up his meal to another beast.
Eventually the men catch up to the poacher’s, right before the ultimate prize shows itself… A dinosaur?!
No idea how that fits in with things but after another quick fight between the hairy men, they both realise they’re ‘chumps’ and save the creatures from the poachers!
Logan gets to the collector before Frank…

Microchip wants Frank to relax every once in a while… Then suggests an expedition in the jungle!
Things go awry when poachers (who’s goods made it to Madripoor) and Logan (aka Wolverine aka Patch) enter the fray.
To make things worse, Frank ends up killing an enraged ape who was just trying to avenge its family. And then Logan arrives…
They fight (of course) which ends with Frank in a river!
