Black and White Wednesday: "Accounts Settled...Accounts Due!" by Goodwin, DeZuniga, and Rival

Can you dig it, Groove-ophiles: the second solo-appearance of The Punisher from one of the most important and rare Marvel one-shots of all time, Marvel Super-Action #1 (November 1975)! Young Groove knew that this was a whole-new ballgame when it came to how super-heroes do their thing--with Marvel borrowing from the popular culture of the day (the Executioner book series, movies like Dirty Harry and Shaft) and hearkening back to the pulp heroes of the 30s (The Shadow and The Spider), the "code against killing" was officially lifted with this tale. Comics would soon change forever...from Archie Goodwin, Tony DeZuniga, and Rico Rival, here's "Accounts Settled...Accounts Due!"
