    In the end, Frank finally unravels the mystery of Ma Gnucci's return some 3 issues after the readers were informed. What he does from there is pretty predictable. I will say that Ennis pays homage to "Welcome Back, Frank" in his final scene, so it's nice to see the writer come full circle in a way. This series has done little to fill the void left by Ennis on Punisher MAX, but I never really expected it to. War Zone is merely a love letter to a simpler era of Punisher comics. It was a fun, wild ride, but I think I've had my fill by now. Read Full Review

So, I thought just then, that Ennis will definitely make that guy put a penis into it. And what do you think? He did it! Even more than that, that guy fell in love with that pumpkin and... Well, I dunno... I kinda loved this story, it's a good comic, but these Ennis moments make it worse for me, especially so many scenes of pissing guys and dogs. I also thought how cool Molly is, how she is a strong woman, who actually a lesbian, you know, F E M I N I S M and everything... But the moment I had this thought, her clothes caught fire and Frank removed them leavi more
