Show notes

WARNING: Do not listen to this episode unless you have seen the 2026 Marvel Studios release "The Punisher: One Last Kill" or do not mind hearing key plot points. Frank Castle has a long history with Marvel Comics. He has been featured in movies and animation. In the early days of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Jon Bernthal starred as The Punisher in both the Daredevil series on Netflix and two seasons of his own Netflix show. Those series have moved over to Disney+, and Castle was featured in season one of the new Daredevil: Born Again series. This show is called a Marvel Television Special. It follows Werewolf By Night and The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special. One big question mark surrounding the show is its timeline in the overall MCU. It is said to take place after season one of Born Again, yet it was released after season two was completed. To further complicate the timeline, One Last Kill is said to be coinciding with the Punisher's appearance in the upcoming Spider-Man: Brand New Day film, which is also reported to take place before season two of Born Again. Joining us is Eddie Pence, who has been appearing regularly on the podcasts covering the MCU. In this episode, they discuss the overall plot of One Last Kill and its confusing place in the timeline. They also discuss how certain aspects of Frank Castle's origin story are retold after they had been discussed at length in earlier releases.
