The Punisher Magazine #11
In "To Topple the Kingpin," the Punisher's war against the Kingpin escalates when the assassin Kleigg strikes at his Everglades compound, killing Reese before the Punisher can intervene. With Microchip aiding from afar, the duo launches a cyber assault on the Kingpin’s network, but the crime boss counters with a young hacker—too late to stop the damage. As the Punisher and his allies move in on the Kingpin’s money-counting hotel, the mob boss is ready, deploying a battle tank to face off against the Punisher’s armored van. Written by Mike Baron and illustrated by Whilce Portacio, with inks by Scott Williams and letters by Ken Bruzenak, the cover by James Sherman captures the clash of brute force and relentless vengeance.
