To learn more about this iconic character before his Netflix series reinvigorates him for a new generation, take a look at The Punisher’s origins on and off the page in the first installment of “Secret Origins.”

  1. I remember watching the 2004 movie & the punisher was the ONLY supper hero (as far as I know) my step dad liked & I easily seen why: the movie did a great job at portraying Frank’s damaged origins (the slaughter of his family) & the meticulous planning & eventual vengeance towards Howard Saint & his family. I think in terms of “realistic” heros in the marvel universe iron man & the punisher are my favorite.
