When this series first came out, it was a big deal. Punisher was about to become one of the most popular characters ever and there was a lot of buzz surrounding his first solo story.
The covers produced by MIKE ZECK were fabulous and only added to the hype. MIKE ZECK did all the covers and the interior art, but for some reason MIKE VOSBURG did the interiors for issue #5.
When the issues came out, they sold very well and prices on the back issues were through the roof.
Doing a search on eBay will allow you find these for under $10 bucks. However, before the internet showed up, issue one used to sell for a minimum of $35.
The story itself was pretty sweet back then. Today, t doesn't hold up as well but it's still pretty good.

After a dog is sicced on Punisher, he punches it in the face in mid-air. Rather than killing the head of the Trust, Frank Castle makes him call every newspaper starting with Ben Urich at the Bugle, to confess everything he been doing.
Frank leaves the scene and the dog follows as he likes him better than his old master. Thus we are left with a great 1980's TV show: "CASTLE and the CANINE".
