This past weekend at San Diego Comic-Con, writer Benjamin Percy took the stage at the Marvel Comics: Next Big Thing Panel to unveil the second half of Big Guns, the upcoming four-part crossover between his runs on Deadpool and Punisher. Today, we can all get a first look at the crossover, including the main covers for all four issues, Josemaria Casanovas’ complete four-part connecting cover artwork, and interior pages from the opening chapters.
“Across both acclaimed ongoing series, Percy has taken Marvel’s two trigger-happy icons back to their roots with uncompromising, no-holds-barred storytelling, aligning the fates for this dangerous and ultra-violent showdown! “Big Guns” kicks off when Deadpool’s latest mess puts him in the crosshairs of the Punisher. Just as the Merc with a Mouth takes on one of the most high-stakes jobs of his career, Frank Castle seeks to settle the score—igniting a relentless clash of bullets, bloodshed, and mayhem that neither man will walk away from unscathed!”

“The new covers by Geoff Shaw and David Marquez reveal more deadly players entering the fray including the most dangerous man in the Marvel Universe, Bullseye, and the mysterious supervillain pulling the strings, Black Hole. Plus, the rest of Josemaria Casanovas’ four-part connecting variant covers are revealed, giving fans a glimpse at Wade Wilson’s tricked-out new ride—the Merc Mobile—which will serve as his base of operations moving forward.”
Will it transform? “We’re halfway through the crossover, but we’re doubling down on the insanity,” Percy promises. “I had ‘The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly’ in my head from the very beginning, so I needed that third player on the board—and my mind immediately went to Bullseye. His chaotic energy matched the plot and his perfect marksmanship makes him a deadly addition to the ‘Big Guns’ lineup. There are some surprises coming—including a greater understanding of our (glow-up) Black Hole’s powers and a specialty sports car snuck into the undercarriage of the Merc Mobile” he continued. “Thanks for sticking with us.”
