The Punisher War Journal #59

The cover of this October 1993 issue says it all: the Punisher charges forward dual-wielding firearms, his skull emblem blazing in blue, with a snarling, spike-collared dog lunging at the foreground — a pairing that's as intimidating as it sounds. Gary Kwapisz's cover art crackles with raw energy, framing Frank Castle and his four-legged companion against a burst of fiery chaos, with what appears to be a grasping hand caught at the edge of the frame. "A Vigilante and His Dog!" promises a story — written by Chuck Dixon — that takes the war on crime in a decidedly unconventional direction.
