Regular Edition - Says "Punisher War Journal: Secret Invasion" on spine and is volumed

Volume 5 - 1st printing. "Secret Invasion!" Collects Punisher War Journal (2006-2009 2nd Series) #24-26 and Annual #1.

Written by MATT FRACTION, RICK REMENDER and SIMON SPURRIER. Art by HOWARD CHAYKIN and WERTHER DELL'EDERA. Cover by CLINT LANGLEY.

With an alien armada laying the world to waste, Stuart RAMPAGE Clarke decides to make his move. Skrull Armageddon is just a backdrop for his ultimate revenge- against Tony Stark, against S.H.I.E.L.D., and against anyone that ever stood in his way. And what about Frank Castle? Where does THE PUNISHER fit into Clarke's plans? It's the end of the world as we know it- time to cross some names off the old enemies list. Then, take a trip to the Helter Skelter Club - psychedelic hangout of every costumed wannabe, z-list villain and spandex tryhard in NYC.

Its retro-tastic owner - Captain Pepper - has been up to his paisley-print elbows in bad business, but now he's caught the attention of one decidedly ungroovy vigilante.

Softcover, 120 pages, full color. Parental Advisory

Cover price $14.99.
