With Kendrick “Kunkka” Lim’s duvet artwork for the sequence making it transparent that Matt Murdock and Frank Fortress’s reunion may not be a pleasing one, the primary main points verify the sequence will in finding the titular heroes as opposites this time round. For Palmiotti, that suggests a possibility to go back to considered one of The Punisher’s largest victories in a brand new, brutal mild.
Having received revenge for his circle of relatives through wiping out the Gnucci Crime Circle of relatives in his comedian ebook previous, The Satan’s Cause displays the chaotic energy fight that follows.

That ethical knife-edge? It’s the heart beat of this complete sequence.”
