!The Slavers
A vicious Romanian gang who run a number of brothels throughout New York where Eastern European abductees are forced into prostitution.
[[folder:General]]
* AHouseDivided: Cristu and Vera are totally against Tiberiu's bloodthirsty tendencies, which threatens to jeopardize their slave ring. Tiberiu in turn doesn't give a shit about repercussions. Cristu eventually decided to kill his father. However, Tiberiu survive an attempt on his life and quickly catches on to his son and Vera's betrayal.
* RedOniBlueOni: Cristu is levelheaded and at one point described as unemotional, his major concerns being profit margins and getting things done in the most efficient and least complicated way possible (why gouge someone's eyes out and break their neck when you can just shoot them?) Conversely, Tiberiu is a gleefully maniacal maniac for whom money is clearly only a bonus when it comes to the slave ring. Vera is somewhere in-between, as while it was clear that the business was her primary concern, at a few points it's implied that she does in fact take some perverse enjoyment out of fucking with the girls.
* RuthlessForeignGangsters: They're a group of ex-military war criminals from East Europe who bring a human trafficking ring into New York, and fall under Frank Castle's personal attention.
* TerribleTrio: The Punisher notes that Christu is the businessman, Tiberiu is the soldier, and Vera is "the one who makes it work."

----
* AxCrazy: By far the craziest and blood thirsty out of all of the Slavers.
* BadassGrandpa: A ''very evil and twisted one'', but a badass nonetheless.
* BerserkButton: Exploited by Frank, when the latter calls him a "coward" in Romanian. Tiberiu predictably flips out and charges at Frank in a blind rage. [[BaitTheDog Which is exactly what Frank wanted.]]
* BloodKnight: Unlike his two associates who take a business only approach to their slavery ring. He ''genuinely'' enjoys deriding sadistic pleasure from tormenting his captives.
* CardCarryingVillain: He's an evil sadistic old fuck and very proud of flaunting that fact. Showing no shame in his cruel ways.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: When a newscast brings up the Punisher killing dozens of criminals after his family's bones were dug up and pissed on, Tiberiu opines that Frank's actions sound like "[[DueToTheDead evidence of sanity]]" and further muses that he would personally "slaughter thousands" if his own wife's remains were ever desecrated in such a way.
* EvilCounterpart: To Frank. At one point Frank even refers to him as a "twisted old fuck who still thought he was a soldier". Amusingly Frank doesn't appear to realize the ''irony'' in this statement.
* ForTheEvulz: What he is ''all about''.
* FromCamouflageToCriminal: Before becoming an immoral human trafficker he was an immoral War criminal who fought alongside the Serbs in the Yugoslav Wars.
* KarmicDeath: In his introduction he snaps the neck of a defenseless chained up man who had no hope of fighting back. Later on Frank repays the favor by [[spoiler:chaining ''him up.'' Except instead of simply snapping his neck, he decides to burn him alive and film the whole thing.]]
* ObligatoryWarCrimeScene: You see his page image above that shows him firing away with that AK? Yeah, well, the complete image shows him executing an entire group of civilians, both adults ''and children''.
* OffingTheOffspring: Tiberiu clearly has this for his son after learning that Cristu planned to kill him for being a liability to their operation. However, Tiberiu was too late as Frank already got to him first.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: In his introduction he calls a chained up gangster a "little black boy", and continues to insult him with varies other racial slurs. It doesn't get much better from that point on. He did take part in genocide after all.
* RevolversAreJustBetter: When a pair of hoods sneak into his home at night, with the intention of killing him. He surprises them by turning the tables on em' and blowing they're brains out with a revolver.
* SociopathicSoldier: When we see the flashbacks to his time in the Yugoslav Wars, we get a first hand view of just how much of an evil bastard he was back then.

A Romanian criminal who specializes in brothels where Eastern European abductees are forced into prostitution. He is the son of notorious crime boss Tiberiu Bulat. However, he lacks his father's penchant for sadism and extreme violence. Intead, preferring to run his operation more like a legitimate business, eschewing Tiberiu's more ruthless tactics. This difference in business management causes no shortage of tension between he and his father.
----
* FromCamouflageToCriminal: He took part in the Yugoslav Wars alongside his father. However, unlike his old man, he discovered that there was far more money to be made in slavery than there was in genocide. And thus promptly switched careers.
* GuttedLikeAFish: [[spoiler:Cristu is drugged from eating his food by the Punisher and wakes up to find his guts cut open from his belly.]]
* KilledOffScreen: [[spoiler:Cristu is last seen looking in horror at his belly that had been gutted by the Punisher. According to Frank, he died from blood loss.]]
* LackOfEmpathy: He shows zero remorse about the whole slavery thing. Considering it to just be a source of revenue for him.
* NothingPersonal: His entire MO. He doesn't drug up prostitutes and force them into slaver for shits and giggles. It's just a business thing is all. No hard feelings.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: See NothingPersonal above.
* {{Patricide}}: When he realizes that his father couldn't control or care about his BloodKnight tendencies that would only jeopardize their prostitution ring, Cristu decide to kill him by tipping off some gangsters. However, Tiberiu is too much of a badass to die that easily.
* PragmaticVillainy: He visibly disapproves of the violent methods that his father uses to kill a pair of criminals. Not because he considers it immoral mind you, he simply finds using a handgun to be a more effective and less time consuming way of killing someone.

----
* BigNo: Her [[FamousLastWords last words]].
* DestinationDefenestration: Her death [[spoiler:in which Frank methodically throws Vera face first into reinforced glass until the window breaks.]]
* KarmicDeath; Her part in the operation was to break the captives using a method she liked to call: Rape them to break them. Which involved having the girls ''gang-raped for twenty-four hours straight''. In order to let them know that they were powerless to prevent anything from being done to them. When Frank finally gets a hold of her [[spoiler:he doesn't rape her, instead what he does is throw her face first into the shatterproof window multiple times until the window panel finally breaks, causing her to fall to her death.]] Frank even Lampshades this trope.
--> '''Frank:''' All that counts is that you can't stop me. I'm stronger than you, so I can do anything I want. Isn't that the way it works?

* HammerTime: When ambushing the Punisher, he makes sure to come at him with an enormous sledgehammer that proves extremely effective.
* ImplacableMan: He comes damn near close to actually ''killing'' Frank by virtue of being extremely durable.
* MadeOfIron: For an Amish farmer the man is one seriously tough S.O.B. In his fight with Frank, he takes a boot knife to the knee, face, and [[GroinAttack family jewels]], gets tased, hit with a chain wrapped fist, and he still keeps coming after Frank. Even after getting [[spoiler:blown up by a claymore the guy is still alive. It took getting electrified by a security system, and having his face crushed by a metal safe, to finally kill him]].
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: When he returns to do one last job for Don Rigoletto, he insist that he only be referred to as "the Mennonite". As he refuses to let anyone soil his Christian born name.
* RealMenLoveJesus: ''Oh yes they do''.
* ReligiousBruiser: A man of the cloth and a vicious bruiser.
* RetiredBadass: Before settling down as a simple Amish farmer, he was once a ruthless hitman for the mob, revered in the underworld for his brutality.
* RockBeatsLaser: In his battle with the Punisher, he eschews firearms in favor of more "unconventional weaponry". Namely, a sledgehammer, an axe, and his chariot of horses. No ''really''. True to this trope, both men appear to be evenly matched, and on more than occasion Mennonite was able to gain the upper hand in battle.
* ThatManIsDead: When confronting his old boss Rigoletto, he insist that: "you ain't hiring the man I usedto be. 'Cause I ain't that man anymore".
* WeHardlyKnewYe: He's a curious example. He shows up fairly late in the first arc, yet is given a fairly deep backstory, complete with a compelling reason to go after the Punisher (i.e: he decides to do one last job for the mob because he needs the money to pay for a good doctor who can treat his dying wife). Yet despite all this setup he appears in only three issues before [[spoiler:being killed by the Punisher.]]

A vicious Romanian gang who run a number of brothels throughout New York where Eastern European abductees are forced into prostitution.
[[folder:General]]
* AHouseDivided: Cristu and Vera are totally against Tiberiu's bloodthirsty tendencies, which threatens to jeopardize their slave ring. Tiberiu in turn doesn't give a shit about repercussions. Cristu eventually decided to kill his father. However, Tiberiu survive an attempt on his life and quickly catches on to his son and Vera's betrayal.
* RedOniBlueOni: Cristu is levelheaded and at one point described as unemotional, his major concerns being profit margins and getting things done in the most efficient and least complicated way possible (why gouge someone's eyes out and break their neck when you can just shoot them?) Conversely, Tiberiu is a gleefully maniacal maniac for whom money is clearly only a bonus when it comes to the slave ring. Vera is somewhere in-between, as while it was clear that the business was her primary concern, at a few points it's implied that she does in fact take some perverse enjoyment out of fucking with the girls.
* RuthlessForeignGangsters: They're a group of ex-military war criminals from East Europe who bring a human trafficking ring into New York, and fall under Frank Castle's personal attention.
* TerribleTrio: The Punisher notes that Christu is the businessman, Tiberiu is the soldier, and Vera is "the one who makes it work."

----
* AxCrazy: By far the craziest and blood thirsty out of all of the Slavers.
* BadassGrandpa: A ''very evil and twisted one'', but a badass nonetheless.
* BerserkButton: Exploited by Frank, when the latter calls him a "coward" in Romanian. Tiberiu predictably flips out and charges at Frank in a blind rage. [[BaitTheDog Which is exactly what Frank wanted.]]
* BloodKnight: Unlike his two associates who take a business only approach to their slavery ring. He ''genuinely'' enjoys deriding sadistic pleasure from tormenting his captives.
* CardCarryingVillain: He's an evil sadistic old fuck and very proud of flaunting that fact. Showing no shame in his cruel ways.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: When a newscast brings up the Punisher killing dozens of criminals after his family's bones were dug up and pissed on, Tiberiu opines that Frank's actions sound like "[[DueToTheDead evidence of sanity]]" and further muses that he would personally "slaughter thousands" if his own wife's remains were ever desecrated in such a way.
* EvilCounterpart: To Frank. At one point Frank even refers to him as a "twisted old fuck who still thought he was a soldier". Amusingly Frank doesn't appear to realize the ''irony'' in this statement.
* ForTheEvulz: What he is ''all about''.
* FromCamouflageToCriminal: Before becoming an immoral human trafficker he was an immoral War criminal who fought alongside the Serbs in the Yugoslav Wars.
* KarmicDeath: In his introduction he snaps the neck of a defenseless chained up man who had no hope of fighting back. Later on Frank repays the favor by [[spoiler:chaining ''him up.'' Except instead of simply snapping his neck, he decides to burn him alive and film the whole thing.]]
* ObligatoryWarCrimeScene: You see his page image above that shows him firing away with that AK? Yeah, well, the complete image shows him executing an entire group of civilians, both adults ''and children''.
* OffingTheOffspring: Tiberiu clearly has this for his son after learning that Cristu planned to kill him for being a liability to their operation. However, Tiberiu was too late as Frank already got to him first.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: In his introduction he calls a chained up gangster a "little black boy", and continues to insult him with varies other racial slurs. It doesn't get much better from that point on. He did take part in genocide after all.
* RevolversAreJustBetter: When a pair of hoods sneak into his home at night, with the intention of killing him. He surprises them by turning the tables on em' and blowing they're brains out with a revolver.
* SociopathicSoldier: When we see the flashbacks to his time in the Yugoslav Wars, we get a first hand view of just how much of an evil bastard he was back then.

-> '''Debut:''' ''The Punisher'' Vol. 7, #25
A Romanian criminal who specializes in brothels where Eastern European abductees are forced into prostitution. He is the son of notorious crime boss Tiberiu Bulat. However, he lacks his father's penchant for sadism and extreme violence. Intead, preferring to run his operation more like a legitimate business, eschewing Tiberiu's more ruthless tactics. This difference in business management causes no shortage of tension between he and his father.
----
* FromCamouflageToCriminal: He took part in the Yugoslav Wars alongside his father. However, unlike his old man, he discovered that there was far more money to be made in slavery than there was in genocide. And thus promptly switched careers.
* GuttedLikeAFish: [[spoiler:Cristu is drugged from eating his food by the Punisher and wakes up to find his guts cut open from his belly.]]
* KilledOffScreen: [[spoiler:Cristu is last seen looking in horror at his belly that had been gutted by the Punisher. According to Frank, he died from blood loss.]]
* LackOfEmpathy: He shows zero remorse about the whole slavery thing. Considering it to just be a source of revenue for him.
* NothingPersonal: His entire MO. He doesn't drug up prostitutes and force them into slaver for shits and giggles. It's just a business thing is all. No hard feelings.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: See NothingPersonal above.
* {{Patricide}}: When he realizes that his father couldn't control or care about his BloodKnight tendencies that would only jeopardize their prostitution ring, Cristu decide to kill him by tipping off some gangsters. However, Tiberiu is too much of a badass to die that easily.
* PragmaticVillainy: He visibly disapproves of the violent methods that his father uses to kill a pair of criminals. Not because he considers it immoral mind you, he simply finds using a handgun to be a more effective and less time consuming way of killing someone.
--> '''Tiberiu:''' I suppose you disapprove.
--> '''Cristu:''' There is an invention called a handgun father. Very efficient.

One of the three ring leaders behind the human trafficking operation, who uses her job as a corporate executive as cover for her real mode of business. Every bit as callous and cruel as her associates, she specializes in breaking the new abductees in a process she likes to call, "rape them to break them".
----
* BigNo: Her [[FamousLastWords last words]].
* DestinationDefenestration: Her death [[spoiler:in which Frank methodically throws Vera face first into reinforced glass until the window breaks.]]
* KarmicDeath; Her part in the operation was to break the captives using a method she liked to call: Rape them to break them. Which involved having the girls ''gang-raped for twenty-four hours straight''. In order to let them know that they were powerless to prevent anything from being done to them. When Frank finally gets a hold of her [[spoiler:he doesn't rape her, instead what he does is throw her face first into the shatterproof window multiple times until the window panel finally breaks, causing her to fall to her death.]] Frank even Lampshades this trope.
--> '''Frank:''' All that counts is that you can't stop me. I'm stronger than you, so I can do anything I want. Isn't that the way it works?
* PragmaticVillainy: Just like Cristu, the whole slavery thing is just a means to gain revenue. Nothing more. Of course that does not make it any less ''evil''.
