  • How I Won the War: Part 3: Mutually Assured Destruction · 22 pages

    While Captain America tries to goad Frank into a fist fight, the Punisher reflects on an encounter he had with Captain America in Vietnam and why he refuses to battle the heroic icon. Bridge tracks down Clarke, little knowing that the mad inventor is actually protecting the Punisher and arming him for upcoming battles.

Publisher’s description

The Punisher. Captain America. Uneasy allies in even the best of times, now two fugitives fighting a common enemy in CIVIL WAR. Every war is won or lost based on one decisive battle-- this might be the endgame for CIVIL WAR. A clash that's been building for thirty years comes to a ferocious head as The Punisher and Captain America finally collide, and the reverberations will be felt for months to come. Cap made a deal with the devil -- what happens when the devil comes to collect?
