Punisher: P.O.V. is a horrifying mini-series by Jim Starlin with art by Bernie Wrightson. It tells how Derrick “Deke” Wainscroft and Barry “Zonkers” Powell were released from prison in 1990, having served less than a year for each of the sixteen people their bombings had killed. These “revolutionaries” immediately went back to their old ways. Within days, a series of bank bombings had brought their body count to over forty people.

In doing so, they attracted the attention of the Punisher, who swore to bring their terror to an end. Before he could act, one of the pair’s own bombs exploded on them in their hideout. Cradling Zonkers’ decapitated head, the horribly burned Deke sought refuge in the sewers. Even then, his luck was bad—his own father’s chemical company chose that time to flush thousands of gallons of mutagenic waste on top of him in the sewer system. Deke should have died then. Instead, he became something…not quite human…
