Thunderbolts Annual # 1 - That Time the Thunderbolts Went Dungeons and Dragons

... and that time when Frank Castle quipped about being The Punisher and also that time when S.H.I.E.L.D. reveals they have a magic department called W.A.N.D. All of this happens in Thunderbolts Annual.

Frank Castle Killing Frost Giants

Leave it to Frank Castle aka The Punisher to crack a surprisingly unfunny joke while felling frost giants in Jotunheim. That sounds awfully familiar but I just can't figure out where I've heard that before.

Avengers X-Sanction # 3 - Cable Beats the Red Hulk

Spoilers for Avengers X-Sanction # 3 by Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuiness featuring the titanic battle between Cable and Red Hulk.
