Punisher Max 1-6 - Svět sovětů – Ennis Garth (2021)

And what awaited us there would even outdo the devil... Someone is blasting their way through the Russian mafia in New York with an AK-47. And that someone is not the Punisher. When Frank Castle starts searching for the killer, he finds a strange little man with a pleasant smile and a desire for revenge that matches his own. It took Valerij Stepanovich decades and thousands of kilometers to get closer to the one who betrayed him and his friends. From the Afghan mountains, he made his way through the underworld of decaying Russia to here, to the streets of New York. But he is driven by more than just a common sense of grievance. What happened to the fifth company of the guard airborne division in the hills south of Kabul is an indescribable nightmare, more a monstrous explosion of cruelty than a typical war story. Now they have work to do. There are people waiting for them who cannot be left alive. But the Russian's tale awakens some ancient anger in Frank's heart – and he realizes that he has never come this close to his own limits before. And that he is ripe for a decision he will never take back. PUNISHER: THE WORLD OF SOVIETS written by Garth Ennis (Hitman, Preacher) and illustrated by Jacen Burrows (Neonomicon, Providence) contains stories #1-6.
