Synopsis for "Dawn's Early Light"
Criminals were storming the building before Sidewinder and Ruby Red brought the Punisher's family to the lobby and protected them while Del Sol planned to open more prisons. After exiting an elevator, The Punisher opened fire on some criminals, pushed one out of a window, and blew more up with grenades while criminals overran the police. The Punisher wondered who was behind their strategy, as well as the attacks in Mexico, took a canister of gasoline, poured it onto a wet floor upon encountering the Howling Commandos, and set it on fire in front of them. When he demanded that they release his family, Myers shot him in the chest. The Howling Commandos prepared to leave and planned to take the family with them while shooting their way to the street.
While Del Sol was freeing prisoners, Sammy vowed to make him pay and he released her from her cell in order to allow his men to attack her. The Howling Commandos left with the Punisher and his family in their aircraft and planned to go to a black site.
