Marvel's Daredevil: 41 WTF Moments From Season 2

10. Love Lesson From The Punisher

Daredevil Frank Castle Punisher WTF
Netflix

Frank Castle is an extremely complex character: on one hand a ruthless, remorseless killing machine who is desperate for revenge, and won't let anyone stand in his way; on the other a grieving person, a loving husband and doting dad who has suffered horrendous tragedy, and is very much a human with a heart. 

It's this duality that makes him so compelling, and why he retains the audience's sympathy despite his crimes, but it's one thing knowing he has a heart, and another him really proving it. In a diner with Karen, he sees straight through her denials and to her love for Matt, and opens up about his love for his own wife, and how Karen can't just let that go because he pi**ed her off. 

The Punisher - an expert in killing, but also an expert in love.
