Original Color Cover Art for Punisher #27 (2003) by Tim Bradstreet

Along with Garth Ennis, Tim Bradstreet is one of the creators responsible for shaping the image and aesthetic of the Punisher as comics moved into a new millennium. His eye-catching covers captured the grimy, darkness-soaked world of the Punisher perfectly. Here, his cover wonderfully reflects the story within with Frank stalking alleyways looking for his next target- who Elektra has already dispatched as she calmly looks in with a slightly playful expression on her face. Signed by the artist in lower left margin. Also included is a copy of the published issue. Watercolor over printed line art heavy board. 11" x 17". NOTE: The blacks/line art on this piece are printed. Bradstreet preferred to do his color work on a print before moving to digital coloring.
