The infamous Vigilante mantle was first assumed by DA Adrian Chase as a means to fight crime outside of his official jurisdictions. He used non lethal methods at first, but his mental health deteriorated and he became a killer. Several others have followed suit since his death, most notably his younger brother, Dorian.

"He's just DC's answer to Punisher. But he's still cool."
Probably true.
Still, with Marv Wolfman writing it, you can bet it'll be better than any Punisher book thats come out this year. Hell, better than most books that come out this year period.
Yeah. But to clear up what I said so no one gives me crap about it: he kills, he's a badass, and no other heros like him, so he's just like Punisher in that respect.
