This was in direct demarcation to his last appearance in the serial publication finale of Netflix’sDaredevilwhere Matt Murdock and the FBI ’s Special Agent Nadeem successfully exposed Kingpin . Although Fisk did claim that no prison house could hold him ( as evidenced throughout time of year 3),Daredevil undertake that he would queer Kingin ’s Modern married woman Vanessaand her own deplorable actions should Kingpin seek and leave say imprisonment .
