In "Basuco," Frank Castle lands in Venezuela with a mission, only to find himself outmaneuvered by Jigsaw, now allied with a ruthless local drug lord. The fight turns brutal when Jigsaw gains the upper hand, leaving Frank wounded and his face damaged. Written by Mike Baron and illustrated by Bill Reinhold, with inks by Mark Farmer and colors by Linda Lessmann, this issue delivers a raw, high-stakes confrontation, all captured in a striking cover by Bill Reinhold.
