By means of these restrictions, assuming the feat is legitimate and the explanation of Ghost Rider's ability is sincere albeit not exampled in the greatest way, Frank Castle has either never killed an innocent, or must be pure in his pursuit of blood, withholding no hesitation or sentimentality for those he has killed (presumably due to their own lack of innocence).
But is this statement actually viable to regard as fact, and what defines "guilty"? The Penance Stare is described as being only able to "avenge the innocent, and therefore can't affect someone trying to punish the guilty (such as Hulk against the Illuminati who were not innocent, thereby making the Hulk guiltless)" ( ).
Simple enough, Punisher gives his side to the story in only the third panel, "I regret nothing," thus allowing the reader to assume the Penance Stare only affects those who regret their actions, aka the guilty. From there, a comparison to what's discussed to recorded fact on the pieces involved, and finally what it means to the characters involved if said feat can be legitimized. If we ignore the idea of canon, the writer involved, context of the comic itself, etc, and focus on the specific action involved, and put said action within any scenario so as to involve Punisher locked into the Penance Stare, is it even possible for him to be able to perform such a feat? First, the scan's explanation. The Penance Stare is regarded as Ghost Rider's ultimate weapon, a simple locking of his own and another's gaze that has resulted in hysteria, paralysis, and even death. But what does this mean for Punisher? Is this a legitimate feat, or WIS induced bullshit? Let's investigate and determine just how trivial, or incredible, an action of this caliber really is. This particular event is often brought up in debates, respect lists, and other such character-related posts.
