As a seasoned gamer and comic book enthusiast with decades of experience under my belt, I can confidently say that the upcoming Marvel Legends Punisher and Bushwacker 2-pack is an exciting addition to any collector’s shelf! The figure’s origin story and connections to iconic characters like Daredevil and the Punisher himself make this set a must-have for fans of the genre.
At SDCC 2024, Hasbro will debut the Marvel Legends Punisher and Bushwacker 2-pack, modeled after the Punisher War Journal comics, on Thursday, August 22nd at 10am PT / 1pm ET exclusively through their Fan Channel. You can find it at Entertainment Earth (with free U.S. shipping on orders over $59) and Amazon starting from that time, so we recommend securing yours early as this is shaping up to be an exceptional collection.
The update comes from Hasbro’s Dan Yun, and we know from the SDCC reveal that the Punisher figure will come with a huge arsenal of weapons as well as a swappable head and hands. The Bushwacker figure is all new to the Marvel Legends lineup, and includes an effects piece and alternate hands, one of which features his uncomfortably long pistol finger.
If you’re not aware, Carl Burbank, also known as Bushwacker, started off as a priest before leaving the clergy and joining the CIA as an assassin. He was introduced by Ann Nocenti and artist Rick Leonardi in the Daredevil #248 comic published in 1987, and has often been featured in issues of Daredevil but has also encountered characters like Wolverine from the X-Men and the Punisher. In these stories, “hired gun” means something different because he is a villain with a special talent: he can change his cybernetic arm into numerous types of firearms.
The Punisher Returns In Daredevil: Born Again
Regarding the character of the Punisher, it has been announced that Jon Bernthal will reprise his role as Frank Castle in the upcoming Marvel series on Disney+ titled “Daredevil: Born Again.” This series is scheduled to launch on the streaming platform in March 2025. During the unveiling at Disney’s D23 event, the first trailer was released, and Bernthal believes that enthusiasts of the original Netflix show will be eager to join this fresh journey.
In simple terms, Bernthal expressed that if you enjoyed the previous show, you’ll likely appreciate this one even more because they are pushing the boundaries further. After Marvel Studio’s D23 presentation, he said this to Marvel Entertainment, adding that everyone involved is thrilled to be part of it and proud of their work. If you’re a fan of Marvel’s Daredevil, you can expect to be very pleased.
The Netflix show Daredevil sparked a connected set of series including Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, The Punisher, and The Defenders. These shows were all discontinued between 2018 and 2019. In 2022, Disney placed all six of these series on Disney+. By 2024, the official Marvel Cinematic Universe timeline on the streaming service was expanded to include the “Defenders-Verse” series.
