Are We Getting A New Punisher/Daredevil Crossover? (Spoilers)

In Daredevil: Woman Without Fear #3 last month, we met the new-look Punisher for the first time. With Elektra up against the Hand – and the Fist being formed.

And for the first time we got to see who is behind the new iteration of The Hand, the ninja group of operatives used by so many over the decades, but with their own very strong sense of purpose and mortality.

And now run by Frank Castle, The Punisher. Who has dropped his usual skull symbol in favour of the Devil's Skull Horns. And has replaced guns with swords and knives of various sizes.

Was this just a tease for the new Punisher series by Jason Aaron and Jesus Saiz that Bleeding Cool got the scoop on in a couple of posts last year, and confirmed by Marvel Comics sometime after?

Maybe, maybe not. Because in today's Devil's Reign #6 finale, Daredevil is moving on. The world believes he is dead, as Matt Murdock, killed at the hands of the Kingpin. But not Daredevil – either of them. So they have a new mission together, for the Daredevil #1 relaunch.

To start The Fist to take down The Hand. And if that happens to against the current Lord Of The Hand.

Will the new Daredevil series lead into a big Daredevil/Punisher crossover? It would make sense… though it wasn't part of our recent Punisher gossip. Not explicitly, anyway…
