Marvel's The Punisher: Ranking Every Major Character From Worst To Best

8. Lewis Wilson

The Punisher Characters

Given the fact that it stars a gun-toting vigilante, The Punisher had to say something about society's current problems with gun control. While Frank's war on crime went largely untouched by this, the show addressed this discussion through the subplot involving Lewis Wilson, a damaged veteran who becomes a terrorist.

It's engrossing to see Lewis' descent unfold, and Daniel Webber gives a strong performance in the role. However, this plotline never properly aligns with the rest of the show, meaning Lewis is prevented from having the same impact as the rest of the cast. More also could have been done with the parallels between Frank and Lewis, but the show is too quick to paint them with the hero/villain brush.

Still, Lewis was a worthwhile character, whose storyline stopped the season from sagging in the middle like some of the Marvel-Netflix shows have done before.
