Spider-man has had enough of Punisher's shit. After years of letting him go around and murder people (bad people mostly) he decides to stop all this.

So it begins with Spider-man trying to stop Frank. It's actually pretty great and shows how a pissed off Spidy is someone you don't want to fuck with. But Frank isn't dumb, and he's ready to fight back. Then, when Spidy convinces the Avengers to deal with Frank, each gives some time to track him down and speak with him. With basically a large manhunt and all the avengers doing what they must, we see a Frank on the verge of losing it all.

I really dug a lot of this. My favorite meeting being Steve and Frank talking. Thor and Frank meeting. And the art being really stellar. The fights are still brutal, the pacing frantic, and the big moments hitting hard. Besides the Black Widow issue, I really dug. A 4 out of 5.
