\u00a0Well, a war with the Punisher of course. \u00a0Let me start from the beginning.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The Avengers are involved in a major battle with large monsters. \u00a0What they don&#8217;t know is, that there is a team of mercs with weapons capable of stopping all the Avengers dead in their tracks. \u00a0What the assassins don&#8217;t know is that the Thunderbolts are on their tail and they are easily disposed off. \u00a0During clean-up, they find out the mastermind of it all and decide to introduce themselves. \u00a0It is at this moment they come across a powerful man named Dr. Faustus. \u00a0The doctors gift are of the mind control variety. \u00a0Frank wants to kill him but General Ross says no and Frank decides to quit the team. \u00a0He knows what needs to be done but Ross disagrees. \u00a0Well, Frank was going to leave well enough alone until he found an explosive device in his fridge and appears to be blown to bits.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/STK644071-e1405468364281.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"21353\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/derfs-comic-picks-of-the-week-54\/stk644071\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/STK644071-e1405468364281.jpg?fit=660%2C432&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"660,432\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"STK644071\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/STK644071-e1405468364281.jpg?fit=300%2C196&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/STK644071-e1405468364281.jpg?fit=660%2C432&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-21353\" alt=\"STK644071\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/STK644071.jpg?resize=660%2C432\" width=\"660\" height=\"432\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Enter issue #28, we see the same battle but from the Avengers&#8217; perspective. \u00a0It turns out Hawkeye saw something on top of one of the buildings during the battle with the monsters. \u00a0He leads the Avengers to the rooftop and thanks to graffiti from Deadpool, they were able to determine that the Punisher was involved. \u00a0So, they locate Frank&#8217;s safe house only to find it blown o bits. \u00a0Hawkeye is also spotted by Elektra who thinks Clint had something to do with Frank&#8217;s death. \u00a0Hawkeye convinces her it wasn&#8217;t him so she goes back to HQ to question Ross. \u00a0While Ross and Elektra are in a heated argument, they hear gun shots. Could it be Frank? \u00a0When they investigate, they find the Leader as well as Dr.\u00a0Faustus dead as a door nail and the Hulk gun is missing. \u00a0This war is far from over.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>If you are a die hard Punisher fan, you should have already started reading the Thunderbolts comic, but I especially suggest you check out the rest of the series starting at issue #27. \u00a0This story arc gets a rating of 11 out of 10 so far and I cannot wait until I get my hands on issue #29. \u00a0Until next time, get your READ on! \u00a0Oh, that graffiti I was talking about, I decided to throw in a pic for you to see. \u00a0And yes, Wade wrote Punisher Sucks with the blood from\u00a0the\u00a0mercs they killed. \u00a0(Only Deadpool, LoL)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/tumblr_n7jbtjtRDB1trrnnno1_500.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"21456\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/the-punisher-vs-the-tunderbolts\/tumblr_n7jbtjtrdb1trrnnno1_500\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/tumblr_n7jbtjtRDB1trrnnno1_500.png?fit=500%2C218&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"500,218\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"tumblr_n7jbtjtRDB1trrnnno1_500\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/tumblr_n7jbtjtRDB1trrnnno1_500.png?fit=300%2C131&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/tumblr_n7jbtjtRDB1trrnnno1_500.png?fit=500%2C218&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-21456\" alt=\"tumblr_n7jbtjtRDB1trrnnno1_500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/tumblr_n7jbtjtRDB1trrnnno1_500.png?resize=500%2C218\" width=\"500\" height=\"218\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/tumblr_n7jbtjtRDB1trrnnno1_500.png?w=500&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/tumblr_n7jbtjtRDB1trrnnno1_500.png?resize=300%2C131&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As we know in the world of comics, as well as the real world, all good things must come to an end. \u00a0That is what &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":34,"featured_media":21454,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,462],"tags":[29,113,2118,984,1007,1270,1822],"class_list":["post-21451","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog","category-comics","tag-reviews","tag-marvel","tag-comics","tag-review","tag-derf","tag-thunderbolts","tag-the-punisher","latest_post"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/STK641866-e1406244811796.jpg?fit=660%2C356&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p35LLI-5zZ","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21451","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/34"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21451"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21451\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21459,"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21451\/revisions\/21459"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21454"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21451"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21451"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21451"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
