Punisher Noir

Set in the grim, rain-slicked streets of 1930s New York, this four-issue Marvel miniseries reimagines the Punisher as a Depression-era vigilante. Written by Frank Tieri with moody, shadow-drenched art by Paul Azaceta and Antonio Fuso, it strips Frank Castle down to his brutal core, pitting him against a web of mob corruption and a mysterious figure known as the Banker. A standout entry in the Marvel Noir line, it distills the character’s relentless justice into a stark, period-specific pulp tragedy.
