Mega Marvel #5/2001

In "Badaboom, badabing," the Punisher's war against Ma Gnucci's mafia family rages on, leaving a trail of blood and unanswered questions. When a disgraced police inspector, Martin Soap, is handed the failing case, he finds himself entangled with a mysterious priest known only as "Holy," whose crusade against sin takes a deadly turn.

In "Djurriket," Ma Gnucci and her gang face off against the Punisher at the Central Park Zoo, where violence and vengeance collide. Meanwhile, Inspector Soap gains a new partner in the sharp-tongued and controversial police assistant Molly von Richthofen, while the murderous preacher Holy sees the Punisher as a kindred spirit.

In the wake of a brief retreat, the Punisher finds himself confronted by unsettling imitators who mirror his violent methods. As police officers Soap and von Richthofen devise their own strategy to stop him, Ma Gnucci—still recovering from her past clash at the zoot—moves in the shadows with her own designs.

In "Kokta fläsket stekt," Ma Gnucci acts on a tip, dispatching her thugs to attack the Punisher’s home while Detective Soap and Lt. von Richthofen keep watch on her. Meanwhile, Mr. Payback and Elite escalate their violent campaign, turning the city into a battleground of retribution and chaos.
