The Punisher brings to the screen one of Marvel's
top-selling comic books and a marquee character whose popularity
parallels that of Marvel stars X-Men, Spider-Man, and the Fantastic
Four.

The Punisher walks through the world darkened by war, crime, cruelty
and injustice. He has no superpowers to battle the evil he sees
— only his fierce intelligence, his years of combat experience
and, above all, his iron determination to avenge those wronged by
society's villains.
