Description
### Marvel Comics – The Punisher War Journal #5 (April 1989)
Written by Carl Potts | Art & Cover by Jim Lee | Inks by Scott Williams
_The Punisher War Journal #5_ delivers gritty, high-intensity storytelling as Frank Castle faces a brutal showdown “...To the Death!” — one of the earliest Punisher issues illustrated by the legendary Jim Lee, just before his rise to X-Men fame. This issue captures the raw, street-level realism that made _War Journal_ one of Marvel’s standout late-’80s titles.
Packed with bold, kinetic artwork and heavy noir influence, this issue reflects the Punisher’s transformation into a pop-culture antihero icon. A must-have for collectors of Jim Lee’s early Marvel work and late Bronze Age vigilante comics.
This copy is in Very Fine+ (VF+) condition — minimal edge wear, clean spine, bright color contrast, and sealed in bag and board.
