Punisher welcom back |
|
rank Castle - the Punisher - is a one-man army locked, loaded and ready to take down anyone in his way, meting out the ultimate punishment to criminals: death. The Punisher makes his return by eliminating the ruthless Ma Gnucci's crime family - pursued by the NYPD's two-detective Punisher Task Force, crazed contract killer the Russian and super hero Daredevil; and emulated by three copycat killers who want to join forces with him. The over-the-top action builds toward a showdown in the apartment building Frank shares with the mousy Joan, overweight Mr. Bumpo and punk Spacker Dave. Now, Castle must survive to finish his vendetta, making sure his neighbors aren't caught in the crossfire while evil is punished. When WELCOME BACK, FRANK debuted in 2000, writer Garth Ennis and artist Steve Dillon (with inker Jimmy Palmiotti and iconic cover artist Tim Bradstreet) gave the?Punisher a redefining fresh start that once more made him a force to be reckoned with and served as the catalyst for two?feature films. |
Shaman King omnibus |
|
The action manga bestseller returns, in 600-page editions featuring a remastered translation and new cover art by creator Hiroyuki Takei! Dive into the classic Shonen Jump adventure whose world of mystical spirits and bewitching battles inspired the classic anime. This volume corresponds to Vol. 4-6 of the original release, featuring updated translation and lettering, back in print more than 20 years after its initial release! In a world where shamans communicate with the dead and call forth the power of legendary spirits to defeat their enemies in both body and soul, Yoh is a teenager with the ultimate ambition: to become the Shaman King, the one and only shaman who may commune with the Great Spirit and help remake the world for the better. But the road to this pinnacle of spiritual power runs through the Shaman Fight, a gauntlet of battles with rival mediums who call forth dizzying powers from the world of the dead in their own bids for the crown. At Yoh's side is Anna, his coach, fiancée, and a powerful medium in her own right. Sure, it'd be nice if Yoh had a little more time to train and mature…but the Shaman Fight is only held once every 500 years, so he's going to have to grow up quick! |
