The Punisher is back - with a vengeance!

When a superhuman Civil War breaks out, Frank Castle finds himself square in the crosshairs of G.W. Bridge, a S.H.I.E.L.D. big gun who always gets his man. Frank should be lying low, but when spandex-clad bad guys start carrying badges...well, that's something he just can't abide. But can the Punisher play by Captain America's rules?

In the war's aftermath, Frank infiltrates a super-militia bent on igniting a bloody race war - and led by a new Hate-Monger! With Bridge in hot pursuit, can the Punisher disrupt the National Force's plans - or will he succumb to hate?

Plus: An all-new look for the Punisher brings the Winter Soldier out of the woodwork. And can Frank stand up to the alien madness of WORLD WAR HULK?

They'll take on the Punisher's cyborg doppelganger Damage, go to war with the Architect, and head underground for a revelatory mission! They'll rumble in the jungle, melee in Madripoor and literally battle a small army! But nothing can top the sublime violence Garth Ennis's Punisher visits on his sparring partner - except maybe Logan's swift revenge!
