He does meet and fight John at the end, who I was referring to. But in every episode prior they never actually meet. At the police station he is juuust out of view and Frank is leaning in his chair to try and see him. At some other point they have a literal fire fight with approximate knowledge of where the other is but no visibility so they’re just blind firing through wall. Maybe some other choice moments. It’s a very different choice than Fifth Element where their experiences are tangential to each other. The punisher guys are in active conflict, they just never get the opportunity to actually see each other face to face. Until the end. They go to some length with the camera shots to convey this. Idk, I thought it was cool. But ultimately not capitalized on.
