    Punisher

    Character » Punisher appears in 2803 issues.

    When U.S. Marine veteran Frank Castle's family's was murdered for witnessing a mob hit, the man vowed to avenge their deaths and became a one-man army in his personal war against the criminal underworld. With a distinct death's head skull adorning his chest, Frank Castle became the vigilante known as the Punisher.

    Remember the issue in the 90s when Frank protected Rush Limbaugh?

    I was going through a cousin's Punisher stash and came across an issue where a sympathetic Frank Castle is hired as a bodyguard for a Rush Limbaugh-type character who is kidnapped by "terrorist threats" like environmentalists, anti-gun protesters and animal rights activists. It was the funniest piece of crap I've ever read as it was such blatant nonsense, you could have thought Marvel had been taken over by the GOP!

    You know, I looked for it to share with everyone but couldn't quite find it. I know Mike Baron wrote it. 8 )

    yeah sounds like A mike baron story. Terrible writer, not of the punisher, just of comics in general. He cant even get franks backstory straight, one issue he had one kid, the next he had two.  Total crap.
