Fictional character biography Billy Russo was born to a poor Italian - American family, kicked out and abandoned as an orphan by his abusive father at the age of ten, and went on to become a hitman for New York 's Italian criminal underworld, where his good looks garnered him the nickname `` the Beaut ''. He also married a woman named Susan, and would beat both her and their son, Henry, once forcing Henry to drown his pet cat 's kittens by threatening to shoot Susan. After the botched gangland execution that inadvertently led to the Castle family being massacred, Russo is hired by Frank Costa to assassinate all those connected to the Castles. Russo kills all of his targets but Frank Castle, who survives the bomb that Russo had planted in Castle 's home. Hours later, the Punisher ( Frank Castle ) tracks Russo down to a Maggia nightclub. The Punisher guns down all of Russo 's associates, but leaves him alive to send a message to organized crime after knocking him through a glass pane, an act that reduces Russo 's face to a jigsaw puzzle - like mess of scars. Taking advantage of his hideous visage, the formerly handsome gangster adopts the identity of Jigsaw, and attempts to frame the Punisher for murder. However, the plan fails due to the intervention of Spider - Man and Nightcrawler ; Spider - Man witnesses one of Jigsaw 's murders, and one of his victims is an old friend of Nightcrawler. Jigsaw later battled Spider - Man again. It is revealed in the first Punisher miniseries that Jigsaw was behind a plan to drug the Punisher, causing his enemy to behave erratically and attack any criminals, even for things as minor as littering. Jigsaw also attempts to kill the Punisher in prison. The Punisher confronts and defeats him, and later stops Jigsaw from escaping in a prison riot. Later in the series, Jigsaw is brainwashed by the Trust into serving as a member of a Punisher - style assassination squad. He manages to remember who he is after encountering Castle once again, and attacks the Punisher. He is defeated once more. Jigsaw is broken out of Ryker 's Island by the Rev who has him supervise the importation of a sterility - inducing Venezuelan drug that the Rev intends to test in New York City. When the drug shipment is destroyed by the Punisher, Jigsaw sics a street gang on him, and flees to Venezuela with the Rev. After Jigsaw 's face is healed by the Rev 's powers, he is shot by the Punisher, but resurrected by the Rev, with the assistance of Belasco. Jigsaw 's restored face is destroyed, and he is left for dead in the jungle in a later battle with the Punisher. Jigsaw recovers, and subsequently attempts to illegally reenter the United States, but is arrested and returned to Ryker 's Island. When the Punisher is captured by the authorities and sent to same prison, Jigsaw disfigures and tries to kill him, but the Punisher survives, and escapes from Ryker 's. After the Punisher is arrested and sentenced to death, Jigsaw dons a stylized copy of his costume and embarks on a homicidal rampage, targeting all those connected to the execution. When the Punisher is revealed to still be alive, an overjoyed Jigsaw attempts to kill him, but the Punisher overpowers him with the assistance of Daredevil. Jigsaw later partners with various syndicates, and lays siege to the estate of the Geraci crime family, which the Punisher had become the reluctant underboss of. Jigsaw and his allies abduct the Geracis, but they are saved by the Punisher, who shoots Jigsaw in the head. Jigsaw next establishes a gunrunning operation, which is broken up by Daredevil and Black Widow. When his attempt at negotiating with Daredevil ( who had declared himself the new Kingpin ) fails, Jigsaw seeks revenge by breaking into Daredevil 's home, where he is subdued by Black Widow. Jigsaw is remanded to the Raft, an island supervillain prison, which he escapes from ( breaking Spider - Man 's arm in the process ) when the facility is attacked by Electro. Once free, Jigsaw tries to rob a bank, but is beaten by Tigra. This humiliation leads to his forming an alliance with the self - proclaimed `` super-villain Kingpin '' the Hood ; together, Jigsaw and the Hood film themselves threatening and torturing Tigra. Later, Jigsaw takes part in the Hood 's attack on the Sanctum Sanctorum, where he attempts to snipe Jessica Jones and Danielle Cage, only to be foiled by Spider - Man. Jigsaw has resumed his vendetta against the Punisher, in the pages of Punisher : War Journal. Now wearing a color - inverted mockup of the Punisher costume, Jigsaw arranges for the brainwashing of a young auxiliary police officer in the NYPD. Exploiting the naive cop 's pathological `` hero - worship '' complex, Jigsaw and his new psychiatrist girlfriend turn the young man into a new version of the Punisher. After a battle on the Brooklyn Bridge where the Punisher once again spares Jigsaw 's life, Jigsaw is taken into S.H.I.E.L.D. custody. While imprisoned he is seemingly shot dead by the man that he and his girlfriend ( who was actually undercover S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Lynn Michaels ) had brainwashed. Jigsaw survived the attempt on his life, and was transferred to a `` reprogramming asylum '' by H.A.M.M.E.R. He returns to the Hood 's Gang in Secret Invasion to assist in fending off the invading Skrulls, and rejoins again in Dark Reign to help attack the New Avengers. Jigsaw then partners with the similarly disfigured Stuart Clarke. Together, the `` Jigsaw Brothers '' hire Lady Gorgon to impersonate Maria Castle while they manipulate Henry, the Punisher 's ally and Jigsaw 's son, into helping them capture and kill the Punisher. After betraying and murdering Clarke, Jigsaw battles the Punisher on top of his own burning headquarters, only to fall through the roof of the building and into the fire below. Jigsaw resurfaced when the pictures of he and Spider - Man were shown enjoying ice cream cones together while under the thrall of fairy king Oberoth 'M ' Gozz. A recovered Jigsaw afterward appears in the Civil War II storyline as one of the criminals that the Kingpin has assembled to help him rebuild his New York empire. Powers and abilities Jigsaw is an athletic man with no superhuman powers. During his time in prison, he was able to hone his physical strength to a level comparable to the Punisher. He has extensive experience with street - fighting techniques, and familiarity with a variety of weapons and criminal techniques. He carries various handguns as needed. He has been known to wear a special exo - skeleton in his outfits. Though lacking any formal, military training, Jigsaw is an exceptional strategist and tactician. His unorthodox pattern of operation makes him more difficult for the Punisher to anticipate than the majority of Punisher 's enemies. Before Jigsaw was disfigured, he was a highly - charismatic leader and criminal organizer, but after the accident, only the latter trait remained. Other versions 2099 Jigsaw 2099, on the cover of The Punisher 2099 # 10 ( November 1993 ). Art by Tod Morgan. A cyborg and the under - capo of a crime syndicate called Cyber-Nostra, Multi-Fractor is the one to inform the group 's leader, Fearmaster, of the existence of the new Punisher, who Multi-Fractor encounters for the first time while attempting to illegally demolish a decrepit neighborhood inhabited by `` Decreds ''. Multi-Fractor survives his initial run - in with the Punisher, who he encounters again while extorting protection money from a Grav - Ball Stadium. When the Punisher gains the upper hand in the ensuing fight, a trio of corrupt police officers come to Multi-Fractor's aid, providing him with a power - enhancing device, which kills him when the Punisher rams the machine into Multi-Fractor's chest. A mortician and a veterinarian resurrect Multi-Fractor as Jigsaw 2099, a Frankenstein 's monster - like being made of machinery and body parts taken from animals. Jigsaw attempts to get revenge on the Punisher, but is temporarily flash frozen by the crime fighter, psychologically tortured for information, and then imprisoned in the Punisher 's `` Punishment Hotel ''. Jigsaw is located and freed by Fearmaster, and together the two try to execute the Punisher with his own Molecular Disintegrator. When the machine is turned on, its fail - safes activate, and blast Jigsaw. Jigsaw is later discovered, taken captive, and further augmented by a gang, which he massacres and escapes from before rejoining Fearmaster. Crossovers Jigsaw appears in both Batman / Punisher intercompany crossover books. In the first crossover, Jigsaw allies with the Joker and they both fight the Punisher and Batman ( Jean Paul Valley ). In the sequel, Jigsaw 's face is repaired by one of the world 's foremost plastic surgeons, extorted by the Joker, whom Jigsaw allies with again to take over Gotham. At the end of this crossover, Jigsaw 's reconstructed face is destroyed by one of the Punisher 's fragmentation grenades, and he is knocked out and left for the police by Batman ( Bruce Wayne ). Jigsaw and the Punisher 's activities in Gotham are later recounted by Azrael, and Nightwing. When the Amalgam Universe came into being as a result of the events of DC vs. Marvel, Jigsaw was merged with Wonder Woman foe Cheetah to form `` Pelt - Man '' ; cursed by an ancient ritual to resemble a big cat, Billy Minerva took his anger over his condition out on beautiful people, mutilating their faces until he was located and subdued by Trevor Castle and Diana Prince. Earth x At some point, Jigsaw died, and was sent to the Realm of the Dead. When Captain Marvel and Thanos destroyed Death and created Paradise, Jigsaw was among the many who came to realize that they were actually deceased. Jigsaw rejected Paradise and remained in the Realm of the Dead, where he and the Jackal took to tormenting the Punisher, who had committed suicide, and was living in blissful ignorance with his equally unaware family. Jigsaw and the Jackal 's actions cause the Punisher to remember his death, and drive a wedge between him and his disbelieving loved ones, who only come to accept that they are dead much later. Captain America, who had been sent by Paradise to bring others to it, punishes Jigsaw and the Jackal by banishing them to a desolate region of the Realm of the Dead. Marvel MAX Jigsaw, operating under the alias The Heavy, appears in the `` Girls in White Dresses '' storyline of The Punisher MAX. An American drug lord, Jigsaw expands his empire to Mexico, and has his affiliates within the country kidnap women from border towns for use as disposable slave labor in meth labs. When the families of the abducted and murdered women seek aid from the Punisher, Jigsaw drives the crime fighter to suicidal despair by tricking him into believing he had accidentally shot an innocent girl, though a last minute epiphany prompts the Punisher into exhuming and performing an amateur autopsy on the child, leading to the discovery that the bullet that ended her life was not one of his own. The Punisher proceeds to destroy Jigsaw 's Mexican operation and free his captives, and during a subsequent fight between the two archenemies the Punisher knocks Jigsaw out a window and onto the boxcar of a passing train, leaving his fate ambiguous. Bullseye later researches Jigsaw and other enemies of the Punisher, such as Barracuda, Finn Cooley, and General Nikolai Zakharov. Jigsaw 's role in `` Girls in White Dresses '' was regarded as generic and anticlimactic, and his inclusion in the MAX imprint criticized as obtrusive and gratuitous, by Jesse Schedeen of IGN, who felt that the character was `` planted in this story mainly to appeal to fans of the recent movie ''. Marvel Noir Jigsaw is Al Capone 's top assassin in Punisher Noir. He, Barracuda, and the Russian are hired to kill Frank Castelione, a grocer who had defied mob boss Dutch Schultz. Years later, Frank 's son, the Punisher, tries to ambush Jigsaw, but is shot unconscious, and has his skull - face mask removed. Jigsaw takes the Punisher to his lair, and tortures him by carving a skull into the Punisher 's chest. After Jigsaw mentions who helped him and Barracuda murder Frank, the Punisher escapes his bonds, and kills Jigsaw by garroting.
