And when they find themselves in disagreement over the crimi NAl known as the Bank, they're in for one of the most brutal fights of their lives! Can Frank kill Wade over and over without dying once himself? Or will Wade bug Frank until he welcomes death? When the shells all hit the ground, will anyone truly win? (Besides the ammunition manufacturers, that is?) It's the Merc With a Mouth against the Gunman With a Grimace! Collecting DEADPOOL VS. THE PUNISHER #1-5. Parental Advisory
