Punisher: Bloodlines

    (Marvel, 1991)
™ and ©1991 Marvel Entertainment Group

This 1991 graphic novel takes place relatively early in the career of the Punisher. It’s been six months since his family had been murdered by mobsters in Central Park, and Frank Castle has been on the trail of a South American drug lord named Hector Ramone. Through informants, he eventually tracked Ramone to his base in the country of San Domingo.

When he traveled there, however, Castle also encountered an old friend, Quincy Jefferson, who was opposing Ramone in his role as the local D.E.A. chief. Along with him is his wife Angela, whom Castle once loved before he met his own wife, and their daughter Laura. Soon after this fortuitous reunion, Jefferson and his wife were gunned down, and their daughter taken hostage by Ramone. In order to penetrate Ramone’s base, Castle was forced to rely on an unlikely ally—Ramone’s own estranged son. But will he stand against his father? Or will blood run true?
