Nathan Edmondson launched two All-New Marvel Now series starring two of the deadliest characters in comics. This August the missions of Natasha Romanoff and Frank Castle collide in a two-part crossover. The story happens in Black Widow #9 and Punisher #9.

Frank Castle is heading west to Los Angeles to take down a gang but learns he’s the target of a mysterious group.

 

I love how the creators reveal their take on Frank and how he’ll stalk criminals in L.A. to Marvel.com. Continue reading PUNISHER Goes West, Becomes The Prey
