[@oneproudbrowncoat]

During 'World War Hulk', we see Castle protect refugees and rescue a child. When he first encounters her, he tells the girl "It'll be okay. I'm here to help", and continues with "now, I need you to tell me your name and address, honey." He'd been a father.

​@@oneproudbrowncoat yes. Spot on, and a geeat observation. Losing a kid does that to you. Lost an unborn, and an adopted at 20.

[@yannickvaz694]

Personally, I like to think the ending of the Punisher: Born comic is canon to most Punisher stories (including live action). In the comics, he was almost about to be killed by hundreds of Vietnamese soldiers, but he made a deal with an inner voice that helped him survive. The voice said "this deal will come at a cost", which he's reminded of when he sees his family. Although there are quite a few theories, I believe this was actually Mistress Death that was talking to the Punisher. After the deal, he essentially becomes a servant of death whose only purpose is to provide her with a massive body count (although he may not be entirely aware that he's serving Death). It essentially means that his only mission is to kill as many people as he can, and he will not die unless Death herself allows it to happen. It would explain his immortality, his pain threshold, his healing factor, his lucky escapes, and his increased addiction to violence.

[@kenjones9326]

I concur. That is definitely my favorite comic and puts his disposition and innate abilities into perspective. When I read it, I instantly fell in love with the character all over again. Do you think we'll ever see that version of Frank again or are we past that due to the face of today's society?

Lost mine and an unborn in a car accident. Still miss her, and I'd give anyrhing to hold my kid. It can drive a person to madness. I won't go into what I wanted to do to the other driver, before or after, learning she was pregnant. It scares me still trying not to think about it, who or what my kid wouod have been, and what I could have done, as I was driving. Other driver ran a stop sign on a 55 mph rural road, and t boned us on her side. Blew 2.12. Left me on a dark place, and neck deep in the bottle for 5 years. Li3vw, die, makes no difference. I just didn't go vigilante. And I did sit down with the other driver, 22 years ago, right before his parole hearing. I forgave him, and spoke to the parole board, in favor of releasing him. Meeting his kids changed my mind, as they hadn't seen him in 8 years. Because he didn't want them to see him behind nars, and didn't want to meet his youngest that way. Ended up sponsiring him in the local AA group.

It could be a good comparison between Frank Castle and Bruce Wayne in that they’re both at their physical peaks, both have been highly trained, both do want to provide justice through violent means, and both are mentally unstable due to tragic family circumstances.

I love how Punisher was the first Spider-Man villain to evolve into his full own main character, proving that any villain can be way more than just an antagonist. All Frank needed was the skull logo and a good story, which still lives to this day, always evolving with modern times, from his Vietnam War days to his Black Ops nights. Unfortunately, he's been suffering a lot lately, both from people that never understood the character or that just keep misunderstanding him all the time. People keep trying to put characters in a black-and-white world where there are only heroes and villains, but Punisher was one of those characters to break that mold. Not everyone is 100% good or bad, just as not everyone always does what's 100% right or wrong. Punisher doesn't fit neither, and that's the beauty of it. Nobody has to do either, it's their choices and actions what defines them. I hope we can see characters like him grow like we'd always seen him do over the decades. Only time will tell what Punisher will be up to next in the future.

Nowadays, he's not even antihero anymore, he's become an antivillain ever since 'Punisher Max', focusing only on going after bad guys over protecting innocents.

@@radrno7 he was always an anti hero. His origin is that of an anti hero.

[@bobdole4093]

@@radrno7 I did. But you still mistakenly confuse anti hero for villain. That's on you. I'll assume English isn't your first language

Unpowered superheros are the best. All marvel superheros got her powers by some radioactive shit. But punisher is just a normal man with military training and sheer will, and has to rely on tactics and ingenuity to do his job.

[@xjudgexdreddx]

In my head canon, Frank is actually a mutant whose primary special ability is simply that he can’t die. He can sustain all the same injuries as a normal human, but no matter how serious, they will never be fatal for him.

[@Assassino275]

So wolverine 😐

[@therealemperorpalpatine]

just here to support Frank...long live the punisher!!

[@HaightTheGreat]

I don't like Frank with superpowers but I am 100% behind him in the War Machine armor.

[@po5100]

Thanks again Marvelous!!

[@texshockeycards6155]

He's nuts, crazy people can do things.

[@secret-fbi-man]

I think it has something to do with being in good shape. When I was at my peak, I noticed that not many injuries kept me down for long, and I almost never got sick. After I got fat, not so much

[@theunknownshadowish]

Surprisingly I'm fat and I almost never get sick... I have in the past but very very rarely... Last time I was hospitalized for a week and had to take blood work, they found I had about either 1700 or 17000 (forget which it was exactly but it was waaaaay over the normal amount for a man of my age at that time which I was 24/25)...... they kept me in the hospital under the guise of "lowering my white blood cell count" which I actually think they were trying to either replicate them or trying to cultivate them from me...

[@a.jthomas6132]

Which Actor do you think is the perfect Frank Castle? Like = Thomas Jane Comment = Jon Bernthal

[@taemien9219]

Jon Bernthal hands down.

[@thompsonm1a1]

Ray Stevenson is punisher max on film

[@ATomRileyA]

Wish they would have him in the MCU with the super solider serum from the falcon tv show would be awesome, so much justice so little time :) He could partner up with John Walker :) Crime would plummet.

[@TheRealKarmma]

Marvel already told us they been experimenting on soldiers during the world war 1 and 2 in falcon show so I think frank castle is a beta prototype of an experiment for soldiers to feel numb during war and have high resilience and reach that of human peak so punisher is like a half semi superhuman he’s like daredevil level Or he can have a ancestor that was a mutant like a thousand years ago so he can possibly possess some of a attributes traits without it being superhuman more like being born a Michael Jordan/ Bruce lee

[@tjjohnson1675]

Ever since my cosplay hobby I’ve made it my mission to attend a con with Jon bernthal as it guest so far I missed one in Florida and I was very mad at myself For not being able To Go Than again I had a reason I was going to meet Jensen ackles at supernatural con

[@KurtBenning]

You forgot to mention that he is a marine! A United States Marine!

[@elonmartin5065]

Definitely aged in some comics everyone does

[@darnellsmith363]

I just purchased the punisher series as he is the head of the Hand, Punisher Max/Barricade is my favorite

[@Wolf-bz6kq]

Frank suffered the worst emotional and mental pain so physical pain means nothing to him.

[@adamt4214]

He has no super powers it's sheer tenacity his will to go on in spite of pain and push through his will to live is unmatched

[@theunknownshadowish]

Sooo... the human version of the green lanturn

[@abc4781]

So glad to see someone put some respect on Dolph Lundgren's name for his portrayal of the punisher.

[@simonkammeyer4334]

Bernthal is such a Sav. Love that they're bringing him back.

[@RealShiestyBoy]

Punisher is literally just Batman with guns and killing. The same plot armor and same extreme unrealistic pain tolerance and basically everything else. Only difference is no cape and no mask. They’re also both cool.

[@tonygoodwinjr9293]

What does the punisher bring to superheroes skills that most of them don't already have? They all have military & arms training. And some, including Deadpool, use lethal force in every fight. And some are just as brutal

[@AlmostCoolGuys]

Probably not the "BEST" but when Punisher punches a hole in that dudes face! Warzone was nuts. It had Slipknot ffs

[@RedwolfDogrocket]

He has his pleasure and pain receptors back to front. Simples

[@jonsturgill8868]

But can Punisher whoop John Wick?

[@SeñorDossierOficial]

Yes

[@chancethomas7999]

Answer 1, it depends on who the writers want to win. 2. John doesn't do anything to perk up his radar (bad guys killing bad guys doesn't bother him) Frank doesn't kill dogs.

[@jplatt812]

Punisher 🆚️ Spawn..🤯

[@Cj-vz6lu]

Frank is just a singular force of will😏
