* The three part graphic novel series ''Punisher and Comicbook/CaptainAmerica: Blood & Glory'' features the two teaming up against a criminal conspiracy that tricked Frank into trying to assassinate Captain America. The series explores the dynamic between the two, highlighting that they're two very different soldiers from two very [[UsefulNotes/WorldWarII different]] [[UsefulNotes/TheVietnamWar wars]]. At the end when the two are about to go their separate ways, Frank gives Steve a Vietnam Combat Infantry Badge, something given only to people who served in the conflict. Frank tells him that he should've been there with them--because they needed good men like him watching their backs. As Frank walks away, Steve calls out after him, addressing him as "Captain Castle". Frank turns around to see Steve giving him a salute, which Frank returns.

** In an Alternate Universe where the heroes are being driven insane and cannibalistic by a virus, Frank teams up with Cap to hold off the infected horde - and then Cap starts showing symptoms of the infection. He holds onto sanity long enough to ask for a MercyKill from Frank, who agrees. The Punisher even says "You were always my hero" before he shoots him, making sure the last thing Cap heard was an endorsement of what he was, not what he is being turned into.

* In the [[ComicBook/WhatIf Marvel What-If]] issue "What if the Punisher became Captain America?", Frank reluctantly agrees to become the new Captain America after Rogers is crippled in a battle with a villain, after several other candidates don't work out. Doing so initially out of a hope of finding purpose, the address stress of being a symbol and a weakened version of the Super Soldier serum spurs him to nearly crack psychologically and go on a vengeance fueled killing spree as The Punisher. Upon rampaging into a villain base, a cyborg Steve Rogers confronts him with orders to bring him in. Steve instead chooses to confer to Castle that his successor has to learn killing is not always the answer, and that the mantle of "Captain America" must be held by a mortal man. It's a job he can't do now with what he was rebuilt as, and it takes a normal person can comprehend mortality in the eyes of the people like a superhuman or machine can't. Frank almost guns down the villain leader, but has an epiphany about Roger's words; concluding Captain America has to be held to a high standard and that he'd want to be someone his late family could be proud of. He puts the gun down and arrests the villain alive, finding Rogers had been standing by the whole time to give Castle the chance to choose.
