Biography[]

Daredevil[]

Bullseye was hired by the Kingpin to kill Nikolas Natchios. Bullseye kills Natchios with Daredevil's billy club, causing Elektra to believe Daredevil killed her father. Bullseye himself begins to perceive Daredevil a personal challenge to his skills, because he is the only target he has ever missed.

Later, Elektra attacks Daredevil, seeking revenge, but soon realizes Bullseye killed her father. Elektra and Bullseye battle, but he slits her throat with a playing card, deals with more injuries to her and then stabs her with one of her sai, while impaling her, he give a kiss by biting down on her lower lip and her heart stops.

Bullseye chases Daredevil to a church, and they battle until Daredevil maneuvers Bullseye's hands to be shot by a S.W.A.T. sniper, leaving him with wounds resembling stigmata. With Bullseye wounded, Daredevil grabs him and throws him out of a window, crashing onto the hood of Ben Urich's car. A later scene shows him hospitalized but still able to fling a hypodermic needle with enough force and accuracy to impale a fly that angrily annoyed him.

Abilities[]

  • Master Marksman: Bullseye is a highly skilled marksman, to the point that anything he throws becomes a deadly projectile weapon. He claims to have never missed, shown by him always hitting his intended target or targets even when riding on a motorcycle or ricocheting his throw. The only exception is Daredevil; due to the latter's superhuman senses and radar sense.
    • Weapons Proficiency: Bullseye's ability to throw any object with lethal force gives him a level of proficiency and improvisation of weapons. He is able to throw his shurikens, paperclips, a pen, pencils, glass shards, a church offering dish, a playing card, Daredevil's billy club, Elektra's sai, a syringe, and even a peanut. He used Elektra's sai to kill her, used a pipe organ piece to fight Daredevil, and used a broken candelabra as a makeshift spear.

He is able to use any object in his hand as a thrown weapon, intercepted Nikolas Natchios in his limo, stole Daredevil's billy club while he kicked him, tracked down Elektra, followed Daredevil to a church, and was able to deduce Daredevil's weakness to overwhelmingly loud sounds.
