Synopsis for "Accounts Settled... Accounts Due!"

Reprint of the 1st story from
Marvel Super Action #1
The Punisher survived a Maggia ambush at the Red Grotto Restaurant in Brooklyn's Bay Ridge. While recording his war journal, his date Audrey arrived and quickly learned that he was the Punisher. Frank told Audrey the story of how he became the Punisher, starting with the execution of his family.

After the burial of his family, a police officer named John Laviano told Frank about Bruno Costa, the man who executed his family and had ties to the Maggia. In his first war journal entry as the Punisher, Frank attacked the Maggia's Central Numbers Drop in Newark. Meanwhile, an inspector informed Laviano that the Punisher had stolen files on Bruno Costa.

In the Punisher's seventh war journal entry, he opened fire on Byron Hannigan and Luis Allegre at the Playtime Club at the Catskills, killing them both. Frank Costa was greeted by his younger brother Bruno's children before reprimanding him for failing to kill the Punisher and ordered him to relocate to Florida.

Frank went to Punta Verde, Florida, where he met his former Vietnam War comrade the Mechanic. In Punta Verde, the Punisher went underwater and planted a bomb by a nearby oil well before breaking into Bruno's residence. Bruno and his associates Kolsky and Skinner learned of the Punisher's presence. In order to create a distraction, the Punisher detonated the bomb by the oil well and caused Bruno and Skinner to panic. Skinner rushed outside, where he was shot dead by the Punisher. The Punisher saw the front door open and instead, entered the house by jumping through a window. He went downstairs to an aquarium, where Kolsky held him at gunpoint. As the gangster attempted to execute the Punisher with his gun, the vigilante dodged and accidentally, shot the aquarium, breaking the glass and releasing a shark that killed the former. He finally caught up to Costa.

Frank told Audrey that after his own attack on Bruno Costa, the Maggia had sent someone of their own to stab the gangster in the base of the skull with an icepick. Then, Frank expressed how everytime he kills a criminal, he never feels that his family is avenged, but if he had killed Bruno himself, he would have gotten his revenge. After hearing Frank's story, Audrey offered him a massage before attempting to stab him. Frank quickly pulled out a gun from under his pillow and shot her before revealing that he had only arranged the date with her to be able to kill her, as she was a Maggia assassin. However, Frank declared that killing her still wasn't enough.
