10 Things Everyone Gets Wrong About The Punisher

2. His Weaponry

It's not all about firearms when it comes to Frank Castle.

In fact, the character has gotten seriously creative over the years, having used everything from the Green Goblin's pumpkin bombs to the same villain's glider on occasion. He's gotten his hands on Pym Particles (and even the entire Ant-Man suit), as well as Captain America's shield, Hawkeye's quiver and Doctor Octopus' tentacles too.

The man is very resourceful, and while the use of these more outlandish weapons might not sit well with the Punisher faithful, it's an interesting prospect to consider all the same.

Like, why wouldn't Frank Castle try and use his enemies' weaponry against them? Sure, it might not fit his style, but using a goblin glider makes perfect sense in that 616 context, especially when he lacks the powers to compete with the universe's heaviest hitters.
