Punisher: Die Hard in the Big Easy

Die Hard in the Big Easy was a 1992 one-shot written by John Wagner and drawn by Phil Gascoine. As the title indicates, the story is set in New Orleans as the Punisher tracks down a drug ring ran by a local politician. Before the Punisher can off the guy, however, a hired assassin named The Mortician (a voodoo practitioner) manages to knock the Punisher unconscious and bury him alive. Fortunately, a nearby resident of the swamps sees this and manages to rescue the Punisher before he suffocates. Unfortunately, this rescuer is drawn and characterized very close to being an obnoxious racial stereotype. Apart from this, it's a solid Punisher story, taking everyone's favorite gun-toting vigilante to an interesting (if very clichéd) setting.
