I'm either going to pick up and jump on with either this of Fantastic Four, so should I choose this?

@SgtSeedy - A picking between this and the new issue of F4 is kinda weird cause this is a finale for an arc and the new F4 is a first part.
I personally like this book a lot more than F4. It's (in my opinion) Way more fun and the story isn't too clomplex so it's easy to pick up the current threads and run with it.
THE STORY SO FAR: Punisher has attempted to assasinate Norman Osborne but is stopped by the Sentry. Punisher hooks up with a computer hacker who has tons of info on Osborne's shady dealings and places of criminal operation. They start waging a media war against Osborne by exposing all of these places to the public. Consequentially Osborne put's the hit on Punisher and sends The Hood and Madame Masque after him. Last issue Punisher decided that he was going to attack The Hood's secret base and you see him put on an Ant Man helmet, a Captain America shield, an Iron Man photon glove thingy and other Avenger paraphernalia to get ready for the fight. You also find out that The Hood is working with Punisher's old buddy Microchip

This has been the best Punisher run since Ennis which is saying a real lot. Really loving this book. Can't wait to see how it ends. Art is great too.

Really excited for this one. This has been the best Punisher stuff I've ever read thus far.

Henry (new computer "whiz'; whose name is impossible to find online... then I checked the 1st page recap) has awesome taste in music.

I think this is probably the best issue of the Punisher yet. 5/5.
