Major Spoilers Poll of the Week\\n
As often happens with the start of a new year, people begin to make goals on what they would like to accomplish in the next 365 days. Goals of course need to be S.M.A.R.T.:\\n
This is the mantra for every self-help guru from Tony Robbins down to your fifth period sociology instructor. It\'s surprising that when someone has a goal, believes in it, and works toward it each day, the goal is usually accomplished. Which brings us to this week\'s Major Spoilers Poll of the Week.\\n

The bestselling saga that defined one of the Marvel Universe\'s most unique characters! Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon deliver a wild ride of innovative chaos, reinstating the Punisher as an unstoppable force dispensing his vigilante justice on the streets of New York City. But not everyone is happy to see him return: Two unlucky cops draw the unenviable task of capturing him, while the ruthless Ma Gnucci and her gang will stop at nothing to see him dead. The Punisher also must contend with nosy neighbors and the rise of three copycats - the Holy, Elite, and Mr. Payback - who want him to join their crime-cleansing force. Collecting Punisher (2000) #1-12.
