5 issue Mini-Series.

When it first appeared, this series quickly established itself as a hot back issue in the UK market which continued for the next decade. Still popular of course but there's plenty of supply for the demand.

Though it was a Limited Series or Mini-Series, I am calling it 1st Series for this price guide, as it was the first series that the character starred in. Originally announced as a 4 issue limited series, it became a five issue series with issue #5! It was written by Steven Grant, and illustrated by Mike Zeck and Mike Vosburg. Due to the popular demand, the series brought forth an ongoing Punisher series (2nd Series) some months later.

All issues were Non-Distributed in the U.K. at the time so always cents copies.

The series is reprinted in the following collections:

The Punisher (1st Series) (#1-5)

Punisher (1st Series): Circle of Blood (#1-5)

The Punisher: Back To The War Omnibus (The Punisher (1st Series) #1-5, Amazing Spider-Man #129,134-135,161-162,174-175,201-202, Amazing Spider-Man Annual #15, Giant-Size Spider-Man #4, Marvel Preview #2, Marvel Super Action #1, Captain America #241, Daredevil #182-184, Spectacular Spider-Man #81-83)
