COMICS: Marvel Reveals The Meaning Behind "This Is WAR"

The entire week has seen teaser after teaser for "This Is WAR" and many had assumed that it had something to do with "The Ultron War". However, it turns out that it's all about The Punisher as it appears the book will relaunch with a new title and an event called, "Lock And Load".

It's not made that clear whether the title of this storyline is "Punisher: War Zone" or "Lock and Load", although it seems far more likely that the former will be the new name of the book. In hindsight, the fact that all of the teasers released this week were penciled by regular The Punisher artist Marco Checchetto should have pointed to the vigilante's involvement. Will we see him taking on the Marvel Universe, and if so, why?! Sound off with your thoughts in the usual place.
