Nah, that was an official Punisher shirt. Almost purchased it years ago.

You can use the logo and the name, usually. You can go pretty far so long as it's not for profit and the owners are okay with it. Some companies will cease and desist your ass at first sign of your project (Nintendo is notorious for this). Other companies let entire fan films go on (DC is surprisingly cool about it, Capcom will even promote your work).

It's case by case but usually it's all good. Because Jane is a movie star who could get work from this (even by Marvel Studios or whoever owns movie Punisher right now), he couldn't call it Punisher or even utter "Frank Castle". Then again, perhaps he wanted to call it Dirty Laundry. Maybe Marvel approved it from the start. We don't know for sure.
