Hard-hitting Punisher tales by one of Frank Castle's signature writers! But do the Punisher's origins trace back even farther than the fateful day in the park when he lost his family? In Vietnam, with his platoon under attack, Captain Castle must make a grim choice. And in the modern day, Punisher's old partner, Microchip, resurfaces with a startling offer! Nick Fury has a proposition, too - a dangerous mission involving a Siberian nuclear missile silo and a lethal retrovirus. But Castle's actions set off a chain reaction that will bring him into conflict with a ruthless Russian general - and take the world to the brink of war. Plus: Mobster Nicky Cavella returns to plague the Punisher, and a wave of violence rocks New York to its core! Collecting BORN #1-4 and PUNISHER (2004) #1-30.
Garth Ennis has been writing comics since 1989. His credits include Preacher, Hitman, The Boys and the war series Battlefields and War Story, as well as successful runs on The Punisher and Fury for Marvel Comics. Originally from Belfast, Northern Ireland, Ennis now resides in New York City with his wife, Ruth.

Argentinean artist Leandro Fernandez began his career at the ripe old age of 15, apprenticing to acclaimed professional illustrators Marcelo Frusin and Eduardo Risso. Fernandez got his big break illustrating writer Daniel Way’s memorable “Heartbreaker” story in the series Spider-Man’s Tangled Web. After collaborating with writer Greg Rucka on the spy-thriller series Queen & Country, Fernandez again partnered with Rucka on Wolverine. After a run on Incredible Hulk with writer Bruce Jones, Fernandez joined Garth Ennis on Punisher, lending his unique talents on hard-hitting storylines “Kitchen Irish,” “Up Is Down and Black Is White” and “The Slavers.” He later joined writer Matt Fraction on Punisher War Journal.

Artist Darick Robertson illustrated all 60 issues of Transmetropolitan with writer Warren Ellis. In the Fury limited series for Marvel, Robertson and Garth Ennis presented a graphically realistic vision of what it means to be the leader of the world’s biggest spy organization. He and Ennis next collaborated on the Marvel Knights Punisher series and later launched the controversial creator-owned series The Boys, now a smash-hit streaming series. In addition to his lengthy run on New Warriors, Robertson’s other Marvel credits include Wolverine, Nightcrawler and Toxin.

Artist Lewis Larosa caught the comic-book-drawing bug in sixth grade; years later, a batch of his online art samples earned him his first professional assignment from Marvel Comics editor Tom Brevoort. Larosa made his Marvel debut with Citizen V & the V Battalion: The Everlasting, a miniseries spinning out of the popular Thunderbolts ongoing. In 2004 his gritty style earned him a choice assignment, collaborating with writer Garth Ennis on a new Punisher series published under Marvel Comics’ MAX imprint. Larosa and Ennis firmly established the direction of the title, featuring the most realistic depictions of violence ever seen in a Marvel publication. In 2005, Larosa was invited to illustrate Bad Planet, a science-fiction series co-written by Steve Niles and Thomas Jane, who portrayed Frank Castle in the Punisher film.
