I'm not big on any team-ups or VS mini's from Marvel (just checkout the Wolverine/Punisher TPB, or rather don't), especially when it's anything involving the Punisher that doesn't feature the MAX imprint on the cover or Garth Ennis' name attached to it. However, writer/artist David Lapham's Daredevil VS the Punisher: Means & Ends is a surprisingly good take on both vigilantes and their opposing outlooks on the war on crime. Picking up from the events of Brian Michael Bendis' Daredevil run, Wilson Fisk AKA the Kingpin is gone, and Matt Murdock/Daredevil has declared himself the new Kingpin of the city. While he intends on dispensing justice the way he always has, the Punisher enters the game with his own plans of dispensing justice the way he always has, and Daredevil is in his sights, and vice versa. With a handful of villains and crooks in the mix, including the Jackal and Hammerhead, all with their own intentions; Lapham weaves a solid crime story taking place in the Marvel universe. Lapham, best known for his Stray Bullets series, is at his best here as he illustrates that the methods Daredevil and the Punsiher use to fight crime aren't necessarily right or wrong, and the line between the two becomes more blurred as this TPB reaches it's conclusion. Lapham's art is serviceable enough here, even though at some spots it looks too cartoony. Despite that though, Means & Ends is a surprisingly good take on the two title characters, and fans of both should give this a look.
