    Punisher: The war is on!

    This was a good issue. You can read this without reading the series before this one. Of course it'll be better if you do it, but you can easily jump on this. I'm not sure about the art. I like it in some parts, but I really do miss Checchetto.

    (SPOILERS!!!!!!)

    Spider-man is the first one to try to stop Frank, but he fails. After this, he decides to ask his team ( The Avengers) to help, but they don't take Frank too serious. It is Cap, like always, the one who decides to step on it. The mission is to try to find a way to stop Frank and his plans. The only one who isn't feeling the same way is Wolverine. He understands Frank's motivations, so he tries to help him. The issue ends with Wolverine destroying one of Frank's bases after telling him about what is going to happen if the The Avengers finds him.

    It is a good issue and you should check it out if you like The Punisher. This will be a 5 parts mini saga, so it is perfect to collect without spending a lot of money.

      Avengers on his tail 0

      I often wondered what would take for the Avengers or other supergroup to hunt and lock down Frank Castle and it appears this day has arrived (sure, after Castle "killed" Nick Fury, S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers went down on him, but this tastes different to me). After being falsely accused of killing those cops, Castle now will have to fight the Avengers. I really enjoyed the pace and dynamics of this story, of how it was Spider-Man that brought up the issue for the group, that they can't no lon...
