About this Collection

This 1989 Marvel collection brings together the Punisher and Wolverine for a violent team-up set in the African jungle, where Frank Castle and Logan find themselves on a collision course with the deadly assassin Yuriko Oyama (Lady Deathstrike). The story pits the two anti-heroes against each other before they are forced to join forces against a common threat, blending gritty street-level action with Wolverine's savage mutant abilities.

In "On the Track of Unknown Animals," Frank Castle is sent to Africa on a bizarre dinosaur-hunting expedition orchestrated by Microchip, hoping to pull him away from his brutal crusade in the city. Meanwhile, Wolverine arrives on the same continent, chasing a poaching ring that leads him deep into the jungle. When a group of gorillas is slaughtered during Frank’s mission, the Punisher’s hunt turns deadly—only to collide with Wolverine, who mistakes him for a killer. The two iconic warriors, each driven by vengeance and suspicion, find themselves locked in a brutal confrontation in the heart of the wild. Written and illustrated by Carl Potts, with dynamic artwork by Jim Lee and vivid colors by Gregory Wright, this 1989 Marvel classic features a cover by Jim Lee and Carl Potts that captures the tension of two legends about to clash.
