PUNISHER
PRESENTS: BARRACUDA MAX TPB
Written by GARTH ENNIS
Cover & Pencils by GORAN PARLOV
What? You didn’t actually think that a load of buckshot to the
chest in shark-infested waters was gonna put him down for good,
did you? The Punisher’s wildest foe is back ― give or take a few
boy parts ― this time he’s embarking on a solo mission: playing
bodyguard to the son of a dangerous mob boss. Should be a breeze
for a guy who went toe-to-toe with Frank Castle and lived to
tell about it, right? Guess again. Junior is a hemophiliac ― and
every crime syndicate in the country can’t wait to take a shot
at him as payback to his dad. To survive, Barracuda will have to
navigate hitmen, corrupt cops, black ops, a Central American
strongman and rescue a damsel in distress. No kidding.
