Penance: Relentless 1-5 Complete

is a 5-issue limited series published by Marvel Comics from November 2007 to March 2008. Penance, aka Robert "Robbie" Baldwin, was created by artist Steve Ditko and writer Tom DeFalco, initially as a candidate for Marvel's separate New Universe imprint. In the Marvel Comics crossover "Civil War", Baldwin's powers and personality change, and he changes his name and appearance to Penance. Following this change, Baldwin becomes a member of the government-sponsored Norman Osborn-led Thunderbolts. This mini-series examines the nature and background of such changes.
