*Punisher MAX* is a raw, uncompromising take on Frank Castle that strips away the superhero gloss and plunges into the grimy underbelly of real-world crime. Written by Garth Ennis, it reimagines the Punisher as a war-hardened vigilante in a world without capes—just mobsters, traffickers, war criminals, and the corrupt systems that protect them. The series is brutal, grounded, and emotionally heavy, with violence that feels punishing rather than flashy. What makes it stand out isn’t just the carnage, but the psychological weight Castle carries, the bleak morality of his mission, and the haunting question it leaves hanging: what’s left of a man when revenge is all that drives him? If you’re into dark, hard-hitting crime stories with no punches pulled, Punisher MAX hits like a sledgehammer.

Jonah Hex (2006–2011) is a gritty, violent, and beautifully told Western that doesn’t try to romanticize the Old West—it drags it through the mud and blood where it belongs. Each issue is a mostly self-contained tale following Jonah Hex, a scarred, sharp-shooting bounty hunter with a code of honor buried under layers of cynicism and gun smoke. Writers Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray, along with standout artists like Darwyn Cooke and Jordi Bernet, deliver everything from brutal showdowns to tragic morality plays, painting the frontier as a lawless place where justice is often just another name for revenge. If you like your stories hard-boiled, your protagonists morally complex, and your violence unflinching, this run of Jonah Hex is a criminally underrated gem.
