Punisher: Franken-Castle #[nn]

In "A Good Lie," Frank Castle’s relentless war against crime reaches a grim turning point when Norman Osborn marshals HAMMER’s full might to hunt him down. With Frank evading capture, Osborn sends Daken to deliver the final blow, setting the stage for a brutal confrontation that will test the limits of both men’s resolve.

In "Punishment Chapter 1," Frank Castle returns from the dead—reconstructed into a patchwork of flesh and steel—driven by a single purpose: to settle a score with Daken, the son who once killed him on Norman Osborn’s orders during Dark Reign. Now reborn with a body stitched together from the remnants of his past, Frank hunts with relentless precision, determined to finish what was begun.

In "Punishment Chapter 2," Daken fights his way through the labyrinthine sewers of Tokyo, driven by a single goal: to seize the Bloodstone fueling Franken-Castle’s monstrous form. As the undead Frank gains the upper hand, exploiting his new enhancements and relentless fury, Daken finds himself on the brink—until the real Wolverine arrives, stepping into the fray with a clear message: no one kills his son.

In "Punishment Chapter 3," Logan stands between the Punisher and his deadly mission, forcing a brutal clash as the two warriors push each other to the limit. With the Punisher weakened and on the brink, Daken moves in—cold, precise, and merciless—stripping away the Bloodstone that fuels the Punisher’s monstrous form.

In "Punishment Chapter 4," Franken-Castle and Wolverine clash in a brutal showdown against Daken, now wielding the power of the Bloodstone. As the fight reaches its peak, Logan makes a desperate move—seizing the stone from his son and returning it to Frank’s chest, triggering a life-saving transformation.
