The Punisher #228

The cover by Clayton Crain says it all — a red-and-gold Iron Man surges forward with arc reactor energy crackling at his fist, bearing down on an armored figure sporting the unmistakable Punisher skull, who races ahead in sleek black-and-silver war gear. The dynamic pursuit composition crackles with tension, making it clear that Frank Castle's borrowed tech puts him squarely in the crosshairs of a very dangerous adversary. Matthew Rosenberg and Guiu Vilanova's "War Criminal" arc rolls into its fifth chapter here, and this 2018 installment looks like a collision that's been a long time coming.
