The trailer for Netflix`s next Marvel series, The Punisher was released and it delivered two minutes of pure action, as well as a ton of gunshots. The quick-paced video delivered a lot of information about the upcoming 2017 series--which doesn`t have specific release date yet--and there were a few Easter eggs for fans of the comic book series. Here`s a breakdown of everything we saw, and what you can expect from The Punisher. It opens with Frank Castle and his daughter Lisa playing the opening to `One` by Metallica.

He takes no prisoners. While we`ve seen him in Season 2 of Daredevil he has no problem shooting people, this feels cold and robotic. `They killed my family to get to me,` explains Punisher. We get a quick shot of what is obviously one of the villains this season, Rawlins. In the comics, the character appeared in Garth Ennis` Punisher Max series as a CIA agent who has committed numerous war crimes. Castle goes on to say he was part of a covert CIA operation. We see him tied up with masked men around him. Was this part of his training or initiation? We know that this happens in the past because we see a video of this on a computer, which we believe is Castle`s.If you`re won ...
