The Punisher is caught between the Mecozzis and the Rosettis!

Terrorists have escaped with a kilo of plutonium

Punisher decides to use his last rocket to destroy the compound

Hoping to slip away as the Mecozzis and the Rosettis fight, he is cornered by Manuel Herrera, a former CIA member working for the Mecozzis, but let go when he convinces him he is a Mossad agent after the terrorists

Rose and Frank bond over the fact that both their families were killed by criminals

The Punisher and Rose confront Manny after the terrorists fail to attack the Liberty Bell Celebration

Seeing a picture of a building the Mecozzis have been building on the wall, Punisher realizes that the terrorists are going to attack Manhattan

Punisher and Rose stop the terrorists, but Rose is seemingly thrown to her death

Punisher learns that Rose was not really with Mossad, and there is no record of who she really was

Punisher is left mourning a potential ally

Frank’s Body Count - 2+ (He uses a rocket to destroy the Mecozzi compound, it’s unknown how many guards die.  He shoots one of the terrorists and tosses another off the building.  Rose also guns down a few guards)

• Frank’s Body Count - 20+ (He shoots 4 guards when escaping with Valencia, then shoots a pilot and drops Hoyle out of the Apache Helicopter, then shoots 5 more guards when he returns after Valencia is killed, 8 more guards when he gets inside the mansion, and finally he kills The General.  He also probably kills several of The General’s men while piloting the Apache, but it’s hard to say how many)

Once again a huge thanks to everyone that has traded with our library, we are excited to get new books and give our old books a new home. This will be the last time I’m posting these books, they’ll be moved with the rest of our weeded books after the holiday weekend. If there is anything you’d like to trade for, please don’t hesitate to ask!

For those seeing this for the first time, I work for a library that is in the process of removing graphic novels and manga from our collection that don't circulate and have been given permission to try and trade them here for new books we can add to our collection! We would love to get new things to offer to our patrons while also finding a new home for our old books.

Here are things to consider. Every book I'm offering here is an Ex-Library Copy. I have removed stickers and marked out our library stamp.

Also, I cannot sell any items, all items are only for trade. We will cover shipping of books on our end and ask that you cover shipping on your end if you would like to make a trade.

We aren't looking for any books in particular, I'm open to all offers of graphic novels or manga. As long as it isn't something we already have, all offers will be considered. Please keep all offers fair as well, I know these are reader copies, but it would really help our budget to trade these books for new ones.
