Marvel's Daredevil Season 3: 10 Biggest Questions We're Left With
10. Where Was Frank Castle?
Ok, yes, we're supposed to forget that the other heroes exist outside of the team-ups. In fact, Sister Maggie even brought up the topic of why Matt doesn't ask the Defenders for help in one Season 3 episode. The absence of Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Danny Rand makes logical sense, though, what doesn't is the fact that Frank Castle is a no-show.
Remember how attached to Karen Page Frank was in The Punisher season 1? Frank would have torn apart New York to save her. Yet when Karen is repeatedly under threat in Daredevil Season 3, he never shows. Seeing as Karen was all over the news, it's unlikely he wouldn't have been aware of the situation.
Likewise, Karen hits rock-bottom during this season and is turned away by everyone she knows. It's strange, then, that she doesn't go to Frank, someone she has a deep bond with and who would completely empathise with the crimes she is trying to run away from.
The Punisher Season 2 may explain this, of course. Maybe Frank was out of town while all this was happening?
