Punisher MAX: From First to Last #[nn]

Frank Castle sits in shadow, cradling a heavy firearm with quiet menace, while a massive tiger looms behind him in this striking Tim Bradstreet cover for Punisher MAX: From First to Last. Bradstreet's atmospheric painted style — all deep blacks, muted grays, and smoldering amber — gives the image a noir intensity that feels right at home in Marvel's mature MAX imprint. Collecting explicit-content Punisher stories, this 2008 trade is a solid entry point for readers who want their vigilante fiction dark and uncompromising.
