Don't bother with this turkey. Back issues will have to suffice until Punisher MAX #1 comes out.

This book, like the previous chapters of the Immortal Weapons, eschews super hero trappings for something more. For fans surprised by the depth of the first issue, here is another tale to savor. Well worth the price of admission.

The art is worthy of a look-see alone, but wait for issue #2 to see where the story is heading.

Final Thoughts: Read the back issues first or you'll be lost in a sea of questions. However, if you know the history then hold fast; Peter David never disappoints.

Pick-up and enjoy with a bowl of spicy jambalaya.

Avoid this like the Legacy Virus.

Don't bother. Avoid all the Noir Marvel Titles and buy some TPBs of one of the many far superior crime books that are out there these days. Alias, anyone?

The curious will want to see how this arc ends, but the newcomers should just avoid this one and hope the next arc has something more to offer.
