The Punisher #15

This stark, atmospheric cover by Declan Shalvey tells its own complete story: a subway car cuts across the bottom of the image, its windows revealing Frank Castle—skull insignia unmistakable—with gun raised against armed figures in a tense, close-quarters confrontation. Above, the bold "Punisher" title bleeds into a fiery red horizon lined with bare, dead trees, while silhouettes of ordinary pedestrians pass obliviously overhead, a quiet contrast to the violence below. Becky Cloonan, Matt Horak, and Lee Loughridge bring Frank's war to Marvel's 2017 lineup with this moody issue that promises brutal, street-level action.
