Wilson Fisk has been back on the rise to reclaiming his position as ✃the Marvel Universe's Kingpin of crime in the pages of Dar𒊎edevil, and now, in June 12's Giant-Size Daredevil #1, readers get a look not just into Fisk's mind and interior thoughts, but directly int🌳o his very soul.

And what's there isn't pretty, because 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:as Marvel previously promised, Kingpin ♛is carrying a demonic secr🐼et that puts a sinister new twist on his relationship with Matt Murdock.

Spoilers ahead for Giant-Size Daredevil #1

Gia🦩nt-Size Daredevil #1 by Daredevil series writer Saladin Ahmed, artist Paul Davidson, colorist Matt Hollingsworth, and letterer Clayton Cowles follows Wilson Fisk as he leaves a bloody trail across New York Cit💯y, attempting to lure Matt Murdock out of hiding. 

Unlike many of Fisk's previous campaigns against his arch-enemy, he's getting his own hands dirty right out in the open - and🥀 it's all because he's been literally possessed by a demon who shares his own singular obsession with hunting down Daredevil.

The demon of greed that has possessed Kingpin has its own grud🧜ge agains🐎t Murdock, who escaped Hell at the end of the previous volume of Daredevil, with the demon embarking on a mission to bring him back.

Kingpin's new scheme to draw out꧑ and destroy Matt Murdock kicks off with some brutal, bloody retribution against a group of burglars who attempt to rob him. Soaked in their blood, he makes his way to a bar, where he leaks an address for Daredevil to find him. 

With Matt Murdock hot on his trail, Kingpin has one final eꦗncounter with a member of a gang that was taken out by Kingpin's henchmen in a territory dispute. Wearing a suit of Mauler armor, the gangster blasts Kingpin with a laser that he easily withstands without 🦄injury - a sign of the demonic strength granted to him by his possession.

Kingpin destroys the Mauler armor, leaving the gangster injured with Daredevil arriving a few minutes later to pick up the pieces, t🔯hough Fisk has already moved on by the time Daredevil arrives.

The story ends with Kingpin alone, lamenting the price of his possession, and though he maintains the rage against D▨aredevil that is fueled by the demon inside him, Kingpin longs for Matt Murdock not to die at his hands, but to save his very soul.

The story continues in June 26's Daredevil #10.
