Marvel's One Man Army Gets A Marvel 101

If you think about it, the Punisher is one of the more popular "newer" characters from the Marvel Universe. He and Wolverine are probably the most popular characters created by Marvel post 1970. The character has been translated into film three times by Dolph Lundgren, Thomas Jane and Ray Stevenson and now will be on Netflix played by Jon Bernthal when Daredevil season 2 airs.

He was introduced as a Spider-Man adversary and has tangled with Daredevil on numerous occasions before getting his own mini-series by Steven Grant and Mike Zeck. So what is the appeal? Is it his simple but violent origin? His dedication to getting revenge for his family? Maybe it's the sharply contrasting black and white outfit with the iconic skull on the chest?

Marvel has released a new Marvel 101 focused on Frank Castle.
