Marvel Knights #3

The cover of this 2000 Marvel Knights entry is a raw, visceral showdown: the Punisher, gun in one hand and blade in the other, clings to the back of a massive, long-haired opponent who's built like a freight train and charging forward with terrifying momentum. Penciled by Joe Quesada and inked by Danny Miki, the image crackles with kinetic energy — the Punisher's skull insignia standing out sharply against the chaos of the struggle. "The Destroyers" promises the kind of street-level, hard-edged action that made the Marvel Knights imprint such a compelling corner of Marvel in 2000.
