Five Daredevil Villains We Want In Netflix’s Season 2

Daredevil, the first Marvel Studios Netflix series, made a big splash with fans. One of the aspects of the series that really stood out were the villains. Now, with Season 2 already on the way, fans are already imagining who they want to see Matt Murdock go up against next.

Here are five villains we want to see in Daredevil Season 2.

Bullseye

Perhaps Daredevil’s greatest rival, Bullseye is the deadliest man in the marvel universe. In this assassin’s hands, anything can be a weapon. Bullseye is responsible for the death of Elektra, one of the most iconic and defining moments of the character’s history. Really, Bullseye is a must for any long-term Daredevil adaptation.

Mr. Fear

Mr. Fear is more a psychological villain than a physical threat, known for destroying Matt Murdock’s public life as much as hampering his vigilante alter ego. Given the tone of the Netflix series, we think he fits right in. Fear uses a chemical concoction, usually in gas form, to induce fear in his enemies. This kind of artificially induced panic is something we’d love to see envisioned in the style of the Netflix show.

Typhoid Mary

Typhoid Mary suffers from a unique kind of multiple personality disorder that allows her to access different superpowers, depending on which personality is in control. These include pyrokinesis, telekinesis and some amount of mind control. She’s also an expert at hand-to-hand combat, and can keep up with Daredevil’s acrobatics. She’s been a lover to Daredevil and a henchman of the Kingpin in the past, so she could make for a complex antagonist if she appears in the show.

Leap-Frog

Being a frog-themed villain means that Leap-Frog isn’t often considered as much of a threat, but he’s given Daredevil a tough time on occasion. More interestingly, Brian Michael Bendis used the character (or someone who stumbled on the villain’s suit at least) to tell a poignant story about the life of Leap-Frog’s son, who witness a battle between his father and Daredevil. We want him in the show just to see that angel, if nothing else.

Ikari

Ikari is perhaps the most impressive opponent, physically, that Daredevil has ever gone up against. Much of his identity is still unknown, but he nearly killed Daredevil in their first encounter. Claims to possess radar sense like Daredevil’s, and fashions his costumes and weapons after Daredevils, creating a kind of deadly mirror image. It would be hard to top the visual splendor of a martial arts battle between the two of them done right on screen.
