Punisher

Book excerpt: Frank Castle - the Punisher - is a one-man army ready to take down anyone in his way, meting out the ultimate punishment to criminals: death. The Punisher makes his return by eliminating the ruthless Ma Gnucci's crime family - pursued by the NYPD's two-detective Punisher Task Force, crazed contract killer the Russian and super hero Daredevil; and emulated by three copycat killers. The over-the-top action builds toward a showdown in Frank's apartment building. Now, Castle must survive to finish his vendetta, making sure his neighbors aren't caught in the crossfire while evil is punished. When WELCO ME BACK , FRANK debuted in 2000, writer Garth Ennis and artist Steve Dillon gave the Punisher a redefining fresh start that once more made him a force to be reckoned with and served as the catalyst for two feature films!
