Happy 4th of July Friday Nighters! This time last year we rang in the celebration of America's birth with a tale from a handful of our favorite fireworks. One of our favorite comic book writers Garth Ennis and one of our favorite characters Frank Castle aka The Punisher. In our episode BORN on the 4th of July we recanted the tale of Frank's tragic third tour in Vietnam and how it played a significant part in the man he was to become. For this 4th of July we wanted to continue the tradition with yet another Ennis/Castle tale. In THE PLATOON we get to hear the story of the very first Lt. Frank Castle tour in Vietnam. In it we see a much different man than the unstoppable killing machine we know The Punisher to be. Garth Ennis handling Frank Castle is like Scorcese with DeNiro or DiCaprio. It's like Ryan Reynolds being Deadpool or Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. Its Chadwick Boseman as T'Challa. Some things just go perfect together. We hope you'll enjoy our celebration of our Nation with one of favorite American heroes - Frank Castle in THE PLATOON!
