“Smoke & Fire”

Part of Marvel's 1993 "Suicide Run" crossover event, this issue — subtitled "Smoke & Fire" — opens with a striking cover by Hugh Haynes and Mark McKenna: two hard-edged figures in tactical gear surge toward the viewer with heavy weaponry, while a dramatic silhouette bearing the Punisher's skull emblem looms against a fiery backdrop. The composition crackles with tension, setting a grim, smoke-choked tone that matches the story's title perfectly. Steven Grant's script and Hugh Haynes's interior art promise the same charged energy on every page.
