for Daredevil in Daredevil 2: Bullseye (2005)
Suggested by matthewfenner
Two years after the bloody fall of Wilson Fisk, Hell’s Kitchen has only grown darker. Matt Murdock continues his war on crime, but each night leaves him more broken, more haunted by the lives he’s taken and the ones he couldn’t save — especially Elektra’s. When Lester, the assassin once known as Bullseye, resurfaces after surviving a near-fatal spinal reconstruction, the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen learns that evil doesn’t stay buried. Enhanced with experimental military tech that sharpens his already lethal precision, Bullseye returns to New York with one goal: to kill Daredevil and anyone tied to his past. As the bodies pile up, Matt realizes this isn’t just vengeance — it’s a message, carved into the soul of the city. Daredevil 2: Bullseye is a brutal, R-rated descent into obsession and redemption. Matt must face the monster he created in Bullseye, while battling his own crumbling faith and fractured morality. Every fight becomes more personal, every ally a potential casualty. Karen Page, Foggy Nelson, and the few who still believe in Matt are pulled into a storm of blood and justice that threatens to consume them all. In a final, unrelenting showdown across rain-soaked rooftops, Daredevil and Bullseye confront their shared damnation — two broken men bound by rage, and the need to prove which of them truly is the better Man.
