Panel 3:

Page 11

Panel 1:
Show a small building with a glass door, like a walk-in convenience store. Punisher’s van is pulled up in front.

Show Punisher walking out of the van with Hawkeye’s bow strapped to his back, an Iron Man glove on his right hand, and a sword sheathed to his back. He also has the flamethrower tank strapped to his back, along with the guantlets on his wrist that connect to the tank with cables. He has knives strapped to his legs and pistols strapped to his chests.

CAPTION(Punisher): Give it a few seconds of silence.

Panel 2:
Pan up above Punisher. Show a slim, male Inner Demon clinging to the wall by way of putting his feet on the wall and his hands on the ceiling.

Panel 2:
Front view of Punisher, but back enough so that the view is coming from the back of the bar. Show Z land in the background behind Punisher, to the left slightly.
 Show the walls on both of Punisher’s sides explode out. On the left, a slim female Inner Demon with long black hair and a chinese demon face mask(as tall as Punisher),and the letter “X” written across her mask, runs out with a katana.

Panel 1:
Show The Punisher standing among the wreckage, totally unharmed, his flamethrower tank dropped from his person and lying near a broken support beam, next to the charred corpse of Z.

SFX: GSHKT
PUNISHER: Coulda fooled me.
CAPTION(Punisher): That’s when death meant something.
CAPTION(Punisher): And then Robbins brought them back in front of me. To mock me. To make me a part of this community of immortal egotists and costumed avengers.
X: NYAGGH!!

Panel 3:
Side view. Show Y running at Punisher. His shirt exposes some of his chest, his body is mostly muscular, some skin is forming. Punisher kicks X aside and is reaching for his plasma rifle, which is at his feet.

Y: LLLET HERRR GGGOOO--
CAPTION(Punisher): That idea that death is only a trip to a cosmic waiting room.

Panel 4:
Side view. Punisher aiming his plasma rifle at Y and firing. The beam is obliterating Y’s head.

SFX: CHOOM
SFX: GSSSHKKT
CAPTION(Punisher): Something very, very wrong with that type of thinking. The dead stay dead.
CAPTION(Punisher): That’s how it should be. That’s why, Maria.

Page 18

Panel 1:
Show a front view of Punisher aiming his plasma rifle down at X.

PUNISHER: You had guns earlier. You picked up a beam instead. Wanted to knock me out.

Panel 4:
Close up of Punisher’s eyes, glaring.

PUNISHER: You’re not a hit squad. You were planning to do more. Robbins wants to tie me up and show me more demon horror?

Page 19

Panel 1:
Show Z running to his left to avoid a blast of the plasma rifle. The blast destroys part of a brick wall structure that was still standing. Z’s fully healed now.

SFX: CHOOM
SFX: BOOSHKT
PUNISHER: Well?

Panel 2:

CAPTION(Punisher): @#%#.
CAPTION(Punisher): One backup plan.

Panel 3:
Show a side view of the standoff. Punisher is aiming up his right arm, flashing the glowing circle of his Iron Man glove.

PUNISHER: Almost forgot about this.
SFX: BEEEEEE--

Page 21

Panel 1:
Show a front view of Punisher aiming his Iron Man glove at us (off panel at XYZ). But a black, leathery tail wrapped around the glove.

PUNISHER: What the--

Panel 2:
Show from behind Punisher. FREAK is back, with a fully armored body and a large tail. He has spikes all over his body. Just give a back view of him as well, though. His tail has the Iron Man glove ripped into the open air.

FREAK: MISS ME, @#%#??

Panel 3:
Punisher turning his head to see Freak. Freak’s front is now with a yellow scaled underbelly and brown tan covering, again, with spikes made of bone and fingernail popping out of his body all over. His eyes are glowing red and his mouth still has that orange glow from behind his tongue. His tail has spiky bits as well near the end, and it gets thinner as it goes farther from his body. There’s a knife in the side of his head, but it’s covered in a thick green bile.

FREAK: My HEAD moved my whole SKIN around to get that @##@ing KNIFE outta my brain!
FREAK: When that heals and falls out I’m gonna GUT YOU with it you spineless mother!#%#er!!!

Page 22

BIG IMAGE:
Side view of the entire event. Freak on Punisher’s left side, XYZ on his right. XYZ look as if they’re in awe of Freak, and Freak looks like he wants to rip Punisher’s spine out.

PUNISHER: Auger.
AUGER(static bubble): Frank?! Where have you--
PUNISHER: Shut up. Point me to the nearest boat.
AUGER: Got one, it’s at the nearest dock.

CAPTION(Punisher): This is a set-up.

Panel 2:
Same close up, but with Punisher’s hand pulling out the Mysterio hologram orb and his thumb pressing the button (which is the pupil of the eye logo).

SFX: BEET
CAPTION(Punisher): Someone’s out to get me. Probably Robbins. Playing two sides. Lethal and non-lethal. Testing me. Toying with me.

Panel 3:
Side view of the entire standoff. Show a large explosion of white smoke where Punisher stood. Freak is slashing at the air with his claws. Y is swiping through the air, X is bent over coughing, Z is standing his ground but shaking his head furiously.

SFX: FFFFFFFFSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
CAPTION(Punisher): Get to the boat. Find my storage unit. Take both sides out.
CAPTION(Punisher): Easy enough.

" Then, the bar. Payback for existing." 
 
My favourite line, haha. Very nice, IV123. I'm curious to see how Frank's going to get out of this one, you've given him a serious challenge (which is a good thing, of course). =]

@InnerVenom123: Sweet. Hydro-Man hasn't been done well since the 90s, imo. He was pretty good in Waid's Fantastic Four though.

@InnerVenom123: Ahk, I wasn't sure on that. I haven't read a lot of the Mr Negative stuff. I got into BND at around American Son. 
 
They were cool though. Good foils for Frank.

@FadeToBlackBolt: Mr. Negative's "Guantlet" story is great. He's the best "new villain" out of BND, IMO.
