Written by Garth Ennis
Illustrated by Steve Dillon, Tom Mandrake
Cover by Tim Bradstreet

Writer Garth Ennis – whose classic but contemporary take on the Punisher serves as one of the strongest influences for the upcoming Punisher feature film – tells more tales of vigilante Frank Castle’s bloody and unending war on organized crime. In "Brotherhood," the Punisher has to deal with corruption in the police force. And in "The Underneath," The Punisher finds something horrible in the tunnels beneath Manhattan.
