The Punisher's idolization
of Captain America just
received a disturbing twist, as Frank Castle's first kill as a child came while
he wore the hero's mask. In Punisher #3 by Marvel Comics, Castle's childhood
origin is featured, where the first time he killed a man is revealed. Long
before he became the Punisher, Castle burned a murderer alive, all while
wearing Captain America's mask. Marvel's new Punisher series is redefining the character's history and
future in multiple ways as he becomes the Beast of the Hand. The evil ninja
organization somehow brought Punisher's murdered wife back to life and promised
to bring back his children if he took on the role of their ultimate killer. As
readers learn about his new position and powers, Marvel Comics teased the first
time he killed, long before he became the Punisher. As a kid, Frank Castle was a big fan of
Captain America - even refusing to fight him in the past. But,
that didn't mean he followed the same noble rules as the hero; instead, his
first kill came while wearing the Avengers' mask.
