Punisher War Journal Issue 2 Page 7 by Ariel Olivetti and Matt Fraction

Matt Fraction and Ariel Olivetti's Punisher War Journal was a riot! The story began in the Civil War era, thus we have Frank Castle alongside Captain America and some of the members of his outlaw Avengers team (A silhouette of Hulkling, Vision, Spider-Man and Luke Cage) as they discuss enlisting The Punisher in their struggle to oppose Tony Stark and SHIELD. I love this page because it features a bemused Frank as he casually accepts Cap's offer (plea?) to help; Frank's war experience makes him uniquely suited to living in conditions under which some of the heroes struggle. I also love it because it features members of the New Avengers team that Brian Michael Bendis wrote, and it fits nicely in my collection of pages from that run. Thanks, Mark at splashpage.com!
