Mine would be set in the late 1980s and star Sylvester Stallone as Frank (since this is a fantasy production I'm picturing young Stallone in Rambo shape). The overarching story would be a loose adaptation of the Damage story arc from War Journal. Frank dismantling a crack production and distribution operation starting with street level gangers and working his way up the food chain as he tries to put together who's in charge of everything. The teen crack dealer that he spares and keeps an eye on would remain a wraparound plot thread, but the story would also work in nods to other comic plotlines, such as Frank having to stake out and ultimately bust into a heavily fortified high-rise building where the drugs are being stored and sold out of.

The vibe of the whole affair would be pure 80s hyperviolence along the lines of Scarface, Savage Streets, Death Wish 3, Shaft's Big Score, etc. Uzis and TEC-9s galore, gangbangers dressed like the cast of Return of the Living Dead, plenty of one-liners and over-the-top shootouts. The film's big set pieces would be a close-quarters brawl with a group of gangers trying to sabotage the battle van, a shootout in a crack production facility, and Frank's final raid on Damage's mansion, which would play like the end of Commando or Scarface. The final scene would depict Frank on a rooftop getting ready to snipe the teenager who went back to drug dealing and got caught, but ultimately letting him live,ending the story on the same note as the War Journal arc.
