In John Wick's prequel comic series, fans learn that he's much more like the Punisher than he is in his movies based on how and why he murders people.

The insanely deadly assassin, John Wick, has never had a target he couldn’t kill which is an attribute he shares with Marvel Comics’ the Punisher, and the two share more than their aptitude for murder as shown in John Wick’s own prequel comic. In his films, John Wick has killed an insane amount of people—all of which stemmed from the theft of his car and the murder of his dog.

In the comic series John Wick by Greg Pak and Giovanni Valletta, fans are given a look at John Wick’s life before the events of the first film. In the limited series, John Wick is on a killing spree as he is hunting down the members of a gang responsible for burning down a town in which he was living as a child. The Three Bills gang, along with their psychopathic ally Calamity, killed more than fifty people in John Wick’s childhood town.

Their motivations aren’t the only similarities between John Wick and the Punisher as shown in John’s comic series. In the early days of his assassin career, John Wick had yet to align himself with any criminal organization and was just a freelancer, open to any and all contracts he deemed worth his time. In the films, fans learn that John Wick used to work for the Russian Mafia before leaving the criminal underworld entirely.

Throughout John Wick movies, John is rubbing shoulders with known killers and hardened criminals without ever making a move against them unless they did so first. If the Punisher was in his shoes, he would have killed every single assassin he met on principle, while John has no problem aligning himself with evil doers in order to stay alive.
