His new ally, Bian, is revealed to be the daughter of none other than Nick Fury, the legendary S.H.I.E.L.D. agent.
A Mission Deep in Vietnam

This issue transports readers back to 1971, a time when the Vietnam War was at its peak. Frank Castle and Nick Fury, both seasoned soldiers, are deeply entrenched in their respective battles. While Castle guards a deceptively quiet patch of terrain, Fury finds himself captured and traded like a pawn in a brutal game of war.
Ennis Explores Punisher’s Past
The series, penned by Garth Ennis, delves into Castle’s military service in Vietnam, offering fans a deeper understanding of his character. Ennis, known for his previous work on the Punisher, continues to explore the complexities of war and the toll it takes on those who fight it.
One of Ennis’ most notable Punisher stories, Born (2003), also set in Vietnam, depicts the harrowing experiences of Castle’s platoon. Trapped and surrounded by enemies, the soldiers must take extreme measures to survive. Ennis’ exploration of this era provides a raw and gritty backdrop to the Punisher’s origins.
A New Perspective on the Vietnam War
In Get Fury, Ennis brings a fresh perspective to the Vietnam War. He introduces the character of Letrong Giap, a Vietnamese soldier who fought both the French and the Americans. Through Giap, Ennis offers a glimpse into the war from the Vietnamese perspective, adding depth and complexity to the narrative.
As Ennis reflects on his two decades of writing about Vietnam, he acknowledges the lessons he has learned along the way. His dedication to portraying the war with authenticity and respect is evident in every panel of this series.
