The Punisher Annual # 1 2019 NM-

The Punisher Annual # 1 "Acts of Evil" (2019) is a one-shot issue that pits Frank Castle against a classic Marvel cosmic threat, the Brood Queen. It was released as part of the "Acts of Evil" theme, a modern homage to the 1989 "Acts of Vengeance" event where heroes faced villains they did not typically encounter. 

The story, written by Karla Pacheco, features a highly unusual team-up between the Punisher and J. Jonah Jameson. 

• The Launch: Frank Castle infiltrates a private space launch complex to assassinate a group of Russian agents who have posed as reality-TV-selected astronauts to steal a spacecraft.
• The Stowaway: J. Jonah Jameson accidentally ends up on the shuttle during the chaos. In the ensuing struggle, the ship is launched into orbit with both men aboard.
• The Brood Encounter: While in space, they discover that the billionaire behind the launch had a hidden agenda involving the Brood, a parasitic alien race.
• The Battle: Frank is forced to use zero-gravity tactics—and at one point, a space cycle—to combat the Brood Queen while managing his high-maintenance stowaway, Jameson.
