Hawkeye Finale Has Marvel Fans Freaking Out About That Potential Death

Warning, we're talking full spoilers for the Marvel's Hawkeye finale bud! With its sixth and finale episode of the first season of Hawkeye, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has officially welcomed a major staple of the Marvel Netflix shows into its world with Vincent D'Onofrio getting some proper screentime as Wilson Fisk aka Kingpin. The episode not only lets D'Onofrio's Fisk actually get some lines, returning to his trademark speaking cadence that he perfected on Netflix, but he also gets a couple of fight scenes to boot, and one of them might have taken a deadly turn.

In his final moment on screen, D'Onofrio's Kingpin walks down a New York street only to be confronted by Alaqua Cox's Maya Lopez aka Echo. No fully aware of what lead to her father's death, and that Fisk was involved in it, she takes her revenge to the next level and holds a gun to Kingpin. The camera cranes up away from them as two shots ring out, leaving his fate uncertain and having many Marvel fans wonder what the point in bringing Kingpin back was if he was just going to be killed. You can see the reactions below.

As some comic readers may recall though this moment is pulled directly from the pages of Marvel Comics. Echo shot Kingpin in the face as an act of revenge which only blinded him rather than killing him. He eventually recovered as super villains often do.
