About the series
In the late 1990s, Marvel unleashed a grim four-issue miniseries that stripped Frank Castle down to his most brutal essentials. Scripted by Christopher Golden and Tom Sniegoski, and rendered with gothic intensity by legendary artist Bernie Wrightson, this run pits the Punisher against a monstrous new threat that forces him to confront the line between man and monster. A dark, atmospheric chapter in the character's history, it stands out for Wrightson's distinctive, moody artwork.
