### Handedness

Ambidextrous

**Wilson Grant Fisk** (December 14th, 1967-January 21st, 2040) was an American lawyer, businessman, crime lord, and was the 110th Mayor of New York City. Fisk was one of the most powerful men in New York City from 1995 to 2032 and controlled most of the organized crime in the New York Metropolitan Area and Las Vegas under the pseudonym of **the Kingpin**. Fisk was also one of the strongest men in the world weighing 500 pounds, 450 of which were pure muscle.

Fisk was born in Hell's Kitchen to an upper middle class family, however unbeknownst to him his father was a Maggia hitman. Fisk became a lawyer in 1993, however he also began working for the Maggia and later started his own criminal syndicate using the connections he acquired from his experience with the Maggia and created his own company, Fisk Industries, as a legitimate front for his criminal activities. Fisk would later be involved in groups such as the Assassin's Guild and The Hand and incorporated them in his criminal empire as his heavy duty back up. Fisk had a rivalry with several vigilantes and superheroes, the most notable being Daredevil and Spider-Man. These superheroes did more to damage Fisk's empire than anything else as unlike the police they could not be bought. Daredevil in particular hated Fisk and the two fought dozens of time, put each other prison, and even drove one another insane in the pursuit of defeating one another.

Fisk virtually ran the entirety of the crime in the New York Metropolitan Area and Los Vegas along with connections worldwide from as far east as Japan with the backing of the Yakuza and the Hand to as far south as the Columbian Cartels. At the absolute height of his power Fisk was a billionaire with a multibillion dollar company, leader of one of the largest criminal syndicates in the world, leader of a cult of ninjas, and the mayor of New York. Despite all this power Fisk's reputation was mixed as he was initially seen as one of the greatest men in New York doing his best to enhance the state of the city but multiple incidents and rumors led to the knowledge of his involvement in crime with the addition of multiple trials and even two stints in prison due federal crimes lead to the public turning on him. This all culminated when the Marvel Knights attacked his compound and stole evidence that implicated Fisk in ways that could not be put back to his favor. Fisk retaliated by waging war against New York before his final arrest land his imprisonment in the Raft and the destruction of his syndicate. Fisk escaped and intended to retire in Japan, but his desire to kill Daredevil was so great that he took over the Yakuza which caught the attention of Daredevil. Daredevil dismantled the Yakuza before fighting Fisk on January 21st, 2040 with Fisk being beaten to death by the vigilante.

## Biography

### Early Life

**Wilson Grant Fisk** was born on December 14th, 1967 to William “Bill” Fisk and Marlene Vistain-Fisk in Hell's Kitchen. The Fisk family were decently wealthy, however, the source of this wealth was a mystery to all including Wilson. Fisk had a strained relationship with his father who was often away because of his job and Wilson was close with his mother. Fisk was an obese child and was frequently bullied by other children for this. At one point, Fisk was being bullied by an older boy named Bernie Walker. When Bill discovered this, he took Wilson to Bernie and began beating him. Bill then forced Wilson to beat Bernie as well, causing Bernie to be sent to the hospital. After this event, Fisk began fighting the kids that picked on him and began exercising and lifting weights extensively. Fisk also began training in several martial arts including Judo, Karate, Sumo, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Before Fisk became a senior in high school, his father disappeared suddenly without a trace, leaving both Fisk and his mother perplexed. In 1985, an 18-year-old Fisk left the United States to go to Oxford for university. Fisk began studying in both criminal law and political science and eventually graduated with a master's in both. During his time in Oxford, Fisk met a fellow American studying abroad named Vanessa Marianna and the two began dating and married in 1989, the two then had a son named Richard later that year. Fisk also became a master in various martial arts and became one of the naturally strongest men in the world. Fisk and his new family moved back to New York City in 1993 and he opened a law firm with Marshal Johannes, a Dutch lawyer he met at Oxford. Fisk & Johannes became one of the biggest law firms in the city and began bringing Fisk wealth and fame.

### Maggia Connections

In 1994, Fisk was approached by two men who identified themselves as being members of the Maggia. The two explained that Fisk’s father was a hitman for the Maggia and that they wanted Fisk to join their organization as the lawyer for the higher-ups. Fisk agreed to increase his affluence. Fisk began representing Don Rigoletto, Silvio “Silvermane” Manfredi, Joseph “Hammerhead” Romano, Bruno Costa, and Caesar “Big C” Cicero. In 1995 Johannes discovered that Fisk had been deliberately sabotaging the trials and bribing the juries against his clients and confronted Fisk about it. Johannes made it clear that he would not abide by this and he would tell the police. Fisk then rose from his chair and strangled Johannes to death, feeling no remorse for his death Fisk framed Johannes’ death as a suicide.

### Starting his own Syndicate

Fisk then grew tired of being a lackey to the Maggia and began using his connections to begin his own criminal syndicate. Fisk began causing gang wars to destabilize his rivals and then absorbed the remains into his own syndicate. Fisk then began using the alias of **The Kingpin** to hide his association with crime. Fisk then quit being a representative for the Maggia in late 1995 and began convincing some low-level members to join his organization. In 1996, Don Rigoletto discovered Fisk's intentions and attempted to have him assassinated. Fisk narrowly survived and personally broke into Rigoletto's house and broke his neck. By 1998, the Kingpin Criminal Syndicate became one of the biggest gangs in New York and soon grew to encompass most of the Eastern Seaboard as well as most of the crime in Las Vegas in 2004. In 1999, Fisk created a company known as Fisk Industries that specialized in making spices and eventually grew into construction. Fisk also created a massive tower in Manhattan to serve as the headquarters for Fisk Industries and secretly had a massive building built underneath Fisk Tower to serve as the hideout for the Kingpin Crime Syndicate. Fisk then became one of the richest men in New York, and began donating to charities, and became a major funder of Damage Control to convince the public that he was a philanthropist at heart. In 2002, one of Fisk’s hitmen, Willie “Crazy Horse” Lopez, began acting out of line and threatened to snitch on Fisk and so Fisk ordered a hit on Lopez. Fisk’s men killed both Lopez and his wife and left. However as Fisk went to the house to see the success of the operation he saw Maya Lopez- the 5-year-old, deaf daughter of Willie Lopez- and decided to secretly adopt her and began training her in martial arts. The next year, Fisk discovered the Assassin’s Guild, and both he and Maya joined. Fisk would later become one of the leaders of the guild alongside Candra and Marius Boudreaux being the primary leader of the East Coast portion of the guild. Fisk would often use the guild as a way to eliminate his rivals and threats to his empire. In 2006, Fisk discovered the existence of The Hand during a trip to Japan and once he returned to the United States he discovered that the American branch was headquartered in New York City. Fisk then joined the organization and challenged the leader of the branch- Elektra Natchios- over control. The two had a brutal battle, but Fisk prevailed and took control, with Elektra leaving the organization and the country.

### Fight with Vigilantes

In 2007 Fisk met Matt Murdock, a blind lawyer who wanted to represent him. Fisk sensed that something was up with Murdock and refused the offer and later in that year began battling with a vigilante named Daredevil in Hell’s Kitchen. Fisk was later confronted by Daredevil in his hideout and the two began duking it out. The two fought for an hour, but the battle ended after Fisk broke Daredevil’s arm. Later that year, Fisk was nearly assassinated by Frank Castle who had discovered that Fisk was the Kingpin but Castle’s attempt was thwarted by the police. Fisk then sent both the Assassin’s Guild and the Hand after both men. In 2008, Fisk began facing off against Spider-Man who discovered Fisk’s secret and nearly defeated him due to his powers. Before Spider-Man had the chance to beat Fisk though, Fisk grabbed a katana and nearly cut the vigilante in two. Spider-Man then fled the scene. During the battle, Fisk realized that Spider-Man was a child, and capitalized on this by secretly feeding information about the Maggia to him so that he would turn his attention towards the Maggia and away from the syndicate. In 2009, Fisk made a deal with Norman Osborn, the owner of Oscorp, so that both could become more powerful, however, Osborn began growing dissatisfied with Fisk and attempted to start his own gang to rival the Kingpin. Osborn later became a supervillain named the Green Goblin and Fisk became one of his targets, although the two never fought and the only time they met face to face Goblin was attempting to intimidate Fisk.

### Leaving the United States

In 2010, Spider-Man and Daredevil had been increasingly hitting his syndicate. Enraged by this, Fisk began hiring the Enforcers, a group of criminal mercenaries that had gone into hiding after their leader was caught by Spider-Man. Fisk sent the Enforcers after both vigilantes but they failed to defeat them. Spider-Man would later directly attack Fisk Tower to find information that would prove that Fisk was a criminal. Although Spider-Man did find information, he was ambushed by the Enforcers and Bullseye. Spider-Man was forced to abandon the information, however he later teamed up with Daredevil to retrieve it. After a second battle with the Enforcers and Bullseye, the two vigilantes defeated them but they were confronted by Fisk himself. The two were able to defeat Fisk and gave the information to Ben Urich, a reporter for the Daily Bugle. Ben then printed a story for the Bugle with the information. Fisk then fled the country to his private island in the Caribbean, however he sent an assassin to kill Urich but he was thwarted by Daredevil. Daredevil would later attempt to fight Fisk on his island, however he was outnumbered and escaped back to New York. Fisk would later manipulate the courts so that all the evidence against him was considered inadmissible and he returned to the United States.

### Daredevil's Secret

In 2011, Daredevil fought Fisk at Fisk’s penthouse while the rest of Fisk’s family was away in Europe. During the battle, Fisk unmasked Daredevil and discovered that he was actually Matt Murdock. Fisk then issued an ultimatum to Murdock, if he stopped interfering with his business then no harm would befall him but if he continued then Fisk would reveal his identity and have everyone he ever loved and cared for killed. Murdock then fled the scene without giving Fisk an answer who was confident that his threat had gotten through.

### Crashing the Economy

Fisk learned of a chip that would allow him to decrypt data regarding the world's financial market. Fisk began blackmailing police captain George Stacy into helping him attain the chip. Spider-Man later learned about the plot from SHIELD and made an effort to stop Captain Stacy from delivering the chip. Fisk then sent the Enforcers to take the chip, however Spider-Man defeated them. Fisk then tricked Spider-Man to deliver the chip to actors disguised as FBI agents, however he later learned the truth and attacked the helicopter the chip was in and delivered it to the real FBI.

### Black Cat

Fisk began employing the Black Cat, a famous cat bugler who was thought to be able to steal anything. Black Cat was one of Fisk's greatest minions however she eventually turned against him after she fell in love with Spider-Man and later became an independent criminal.

### Symbiote Spider-Man

In 2012, Fisk was confronted by Spider-Man who was wearing an alien symbiote which augmented his powers. Spider-Man handily beat Fisk in battle, however, Fisk had the police come in which stopped the vigilante’s assault. A few months later, Fisk sent the enforcers after the hero after he had gotten rid of the suit but the group was unable to beat him.

### Killing Electra

In 2013, Fisk was challenged for control of the Hand by Elektra who had returned from her exile and had secretly become one of Fisk’s assassins to spy on him. Fisk accepted her challenge but was nearly killed by Elektra. Fisk refused to give up control of the Hand and sent his disciples Maya- who had taken the mantle of Echo- and Bullseye to kill her which they succeeded in. Fisk was later once again confronted by Matt Murdock who was Elektra’s on-and-off lover and wanted revenge for her death. The two fought bitterly, and Murdock had beaten Fisk. Murdock stopped himself from killing Fisk and left before telling Fisk that if he ever did try to tell anyone the truth, then he would return to finish the job. Fisk was enraged by this but knew that it would be better for him to heed to Murdock’s words. The next year, Vanessa gave birth to a girl named Princess.

### The Prowler and the Nightcreeper

Fisk learned of Hobie Brown, an engineer and criminal who became a supervillain known as the Prowler. Fisk convinced Brown to join him and the Prowler became one of Fisk's enforcers. Despite his position, Brown found it difficult to be a hardcore criminal as he initially just wanted to do petty crimes so that he could live more comfortably. As the Prowler, Brown began fighting Spider-Man who convinced him fight against Fisk. As a result, Fisk's enforcers assaulted Brown's workplace however Brown was not there. Instead Brown's partner Eric Cross and Cross' daughter Maybelline were there. The assault resulted in Maybelline being killed and Cross being injured. Cross would create a replica of the Prowler suit and became a violent vigilante known as the Nightcreeper who wanted his revenge on both Fisk and Brown. Brown and Cross managed to work their differences out peaceably but Cross refused to back down from his mission of killing Fisk. Cross attempted to break into Fisk Tower and kill Fisk, but he was shot dead by Fisk's enforcers.

### Gang War with the Maggia and the Owl

In 2014, the Owl came up with a plan so that he could become the new Kingpin. He attempted to make a deal with Dr. Octopus to help him defeat Fisk, however Octopus didn't trust the Owl and fought him. The incident brought all the attention on Dr. Octopus, which allowed the Owl to manipulate events discreetly so that the Maggia and Kingpin Crime Syndicate would go to war with each other. The Owl was successful in provoking a war, and Fisk began to oversee the battle. The events caused a spike in street violence and caught the attention of Spider-Man and Daredevil. The two worked together to end the war, and discovered the Owl's machinations. The heroes then revealed this to both factions who made peace and agreed to get revenge on the Owl, however he escaped and went off the grid. Fisk later made a deal with the Owl who agreed to join his syndicate for his protection.

### The Rose

In 2015, Fisk began employing a man known only as The Rose who became his right-hand man. Fisk was curious about The Rose's real identity, but whenever he inquired about it The Rose would shut down his questions. Fisk later discovered that The Rose was actually his son, Richard. While Vanessa and Princess were away on errands, Fisk confronted Richard with the information who attacked him. Richard then jumped out a window to his apparent death which devastated the whole family. Sometime after this, Fisk discovered that Freddie Foswell, an informant working for him and the former leader of the Enforcers, was planning on usurping him. Fisk called a meeting with Foswell and the Enforcers and began questioning them. Fisk, who was still emotional over the apparent death of his son, then ordered his men to kill Foswell and fired the Enforcers.

### Nuke Incident

Later in the year, Fisk hatched a scheme to ruin Murdock's life. Fisk framed Murdock for tampering with a witness and got him disbarred. Fisk then had Bullseye dress in a replica of Daredevil's costume and he began murdering people in the streets. Fisk then bombed Murdock's apartment. Murdock dressed in his original costume then confronted Fisk, but was effortlessly beaten to near death as he had gone several days without sleeping. Fisk then attempted to force Murdock to commit suicide, however, he managed to escape. Murdock later defeated Bullseye and donned his costume. In retaliation, Fisk used his connections in the United States government to gain access to Nuke, a super-soldier that the government used for black-ops missions. Fisk then set Nuke off in Hell's Kitchen and he went on a rampage hunting Daredevil, killing dozens of civilians in his hunt. This attracted the attention of the Avengers who rescued Daredevil when he was nearly killed by Nuke and Nuke was arrested. Although Fisk's connection to Nuke was not discovered by the general public or authorities, his government contacts cut all ties to him and Daredevil discovered it. Daredevil then made a deal with Fisk. that he would not reveal the details about the Nuke incident if he left Hell's Kitchen. Fisk initially scoffed at the idea, but he eventually gave in and left Hell's Kitchen. Daredevil would then crown himself as the Kingpin of Hell's Kitchen.

### Spider-Man: Public Enemy #1

In 2016, Fisk made a deal with Osborn who had ceased being the Green Goblin and had become mayor and the two framed Spider-Man for the murders of Travis Michaels and Reggie Forbes both of whom were actually killed by Fisk. Osborn then created a new Sinister Six to hunt down and arrest Spider-Man although he had gone off the record. A few months later, Spider-Man proved his innocence after going undercover as four different individuals and was cleared of any wrongdoing.

### Shadowland

Later in the year, Hell's Kitchen was taken over by a rogue faction of The Hand. Fisk believed them to be part of the Japanese branch of The Hand and went to Japan to ask why this happened. Fisk then learned that The Hand had resurrected Elektra a few weeks after her death as they believed that she was the ideal assassin. Elektra later freed herself and became a freelance assassin, however she suddenly returned convinced several members of the Japanese branch to join her and they took over Hell's Kitchen and created Shadowland. Fisk also learned that Daredevil had been brainwashed and joined sides with Elektra. While the Hand deemed the incident as satisfactory, Fisk was enraged and secretly called on the Defenders, Heroes for Hire, and Spider-Man to defeat the renegade ninjas. During the battle, Daredevil became the embodiment of the Beast, but the demon was expelled from his body by Dr. Strange and Iron Fist. Ultimately, Elektra was imprisoned, the Hand abandoned Shadowland, Daredevil briefly retired, and Fisk took over Shadowland and returned it to Hell's Kitchen.

### Monaco

In 2017, Fisk discovered that his father was alive and was hiding in Monaco as a hotel owner. Fisk met his father after 33 years and Bill told Wilson that he disappeared because he had been kidnapped by the Cosa Nostra and was to be executed in Sicily but left and hid in Monaco to deflect suspicion and to keep them away from the family. Fisk then stayed a few nights at the hotel before leaving for New York, but before he left the hotel Bill and three Maggia gunmen were prepared to gun him down. Fisk knew that it would happen and snapped his fingers, causing snipers to kill the gunmen and disarm Bill. Fisk then began interrogating Bill who admitted that the reason he abandoned his family was that he felt they were holding him back and that he was in Monaco as a ruse by the Maggia to assassinate Fisk. Fisk then beat Bill to death and threw his corpse in the Mediterranean before leaving the country disgusted with his father.

### Civil War and Dark Reign

During the Superhuman Civil War of 2018, Fisk began sponsoring the Pro Registration side and even helped fund the task force against the Secret Avengers. Later in the year, Fisk sent Bullseye to kill Captain America however Bullseye was defeated by both Murdock and a resurrected Elektra who captured him. In 2020, Fisk sponsored the new Avengers team created by Norman Osborn however he quickly disavowed them following their siege of Asgard, although he did manage to negotiate the freedom of Bullseye who was part of the Dark Avengers as the new Hawkeye.

### Dark Days

In 2021, Vanessa discovered that Fisk was the Kingpin and divorced him, taking Princess with her. A year later, Vanessa was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer and Fisk offered to pay for her treatment, however, Vanessa refused and she later died. Fisk was heartbroken by the events but carried on as though nothing happened although he did bring Princess back into his household. Later, Fisk was beaten to near-death by Echo who had met Daredevil who told her the truth about Fisk. Echo then left the guild and began moving against her adopted father’s criminal syndicate. Having recovered from his wounds, Fisk considered retiring and leaving the United States for Japan but he decided against it, only going on a vacation across the world.

### Mayorship

In 2024, Fisk returned from his vacation and decided to run for Mayor of New York City. Fisk won the election through bribery and voter fraud. Fisk then appointed Matt Murdock as his 1st Deputy Mayor to win him over to his side. Murdock accepted this as he wanted to work against him. As Mayor, Fisk began making laws against vigilantism and declared vigilantes such as Spider-Man, Kid Arachnid (Spider-Man’s sidekick), Daredevil, and the Punisher criminals and created his own Sinister Six (composed of the Scorpion, Electro, Vulture, Rhino, Boomerang, and Mysterio) to hunt them down. Fisk then had a meeting with his subordinates, however, the meeting was crashed by Daredevil and Spider-Man who wanted to grab evidence and finally get him arrested. However, the new Sinister Six were in wait and attacked both men causing a massive battle that spilled onto the streets. During the battle, the Scorpion killed several innocents which brought condemnation to the Fisk administration. Fisk then decided to disband the team, however, the villains refused and went on a rampage in the city and Mysterio attacked Fisk, although his illusions failed to impact Fisk who forced the villain to flee. Spider-Man, Daredevil, Kid-Arachnid, and the Ghost Spider (a female clone of Spider-Man) then defeated the Sinister Six and had them sent back to the Raft. This incident further damaged the Fisk administration and Fisk was angry that Murdock would try to get him arrested. In 2025, Fisk was shot by The Punisher and spent half the year in the hospital. When Fisk returned for his duties, Murdock quit but forced Fisk to end his campaign against vigilantes. Fisk then spent the rest of mayorship quietly.

### Aaron Davis & Kid-Arachnid

In 2027, Fisk discovered the existence of Aaron Davis, a low-level cat burglar and arms dealer that was rumored to be as skilled as the Black Cat. Fisk decided to appoint Davis as the new Prowler using the suit of the Nightcreeper. In time Davis grew to be one of Fisk's top enforcers. Davis began fighting against Kid-Arachnid. After several encounters both men discovered that they were uncle and nephew and Davis, unwilling to kill his nephew, decided instead to fake his death and became a vigilante using an experimental Spider-Man suit. Calling himself the Ebony Spider, Davis began aiding Kid-Arachnid in fighting the Kingpin Crime Syndicate. At some point Davis decided to confront Fisk himself. While the Ebony Spider armor gave Davis an advantage, Fisk was more experienced and beat Davis to death. Kid-Arachnid discovered the corpse of his uncle and with the help of Spider-Man they managed to defeat Fisk and even got him arrested. Despite his arrest, the trial ended in a hung jury do to manipulated information but Fisk's reputation was forever tarnished by these events.

### The Return of The Rose

In 2028, The Rose returned to the spotlight and began a gang war against Fisk. The next year, Fisk had a meeting with The Rose to negotiate peace; however, the meeting was a ruse for The Rose to attempt to assassinate Fisk. Fisk defeated The Rose, however, the latter fled and continued his assault. Later that year, The Rose was defeated by Spider-Man and revealed to be two men Richard Fisk and Samuel Silke, Jr. Fisk visited Richard in prison to see why he would turn against him, but Richard attempted to kill his father. Richard later escaped prison and was preparing to kill his father but was killed by the Punisher beforehand. Fisk attended his son’s funeral and was devastated by this and was given a letter from Richard that stated that Richard thought his father was weak and let his family cloud his judgment and that both he and his friend Samuel would take over his organization and run it better than he ever could. Fisk then concluded that Samuel had taken advantage of Richard and turned him against him. Fisk then found Samuel’s home and killed Samuel by smashing his head with his bare fists.

### Federal Prison & Secret Invasion

Fisk, having gone temporary insane, by the events that transpired decided to take his aggression out on Daredevil. Fisk managed to bring Typhoid Mary back to a life of crime and had her light Matt Murdock on fire while the two were on a date. Murdock retaliated by breaking into Fisk's home and beating him to near death as well as stealing incriminating information regarding the Kingpin Crime Syndicate. Fisk was arrested and found guilty for the crimes of racketeering, fraud, conspiracy, and murder. Fisk was imprisoned in Ryker's Island and was constantly harangued by gangs and even the Hand for fear that he would turn on them, however he managed to outclass them at every turn and even managed to repair his relationship with the Hand, although he was no longer allowed to lead the American branch. Fisk later made a deal with the FBI to turn over various criminals and gangs in exchange for a lighter sentence. As a result Fisk was attacked more frequently and was stabbed. Fisk managed to turn his stabbing so that he would be be moved to a safer location for his imprisonment. The location was a hotel that Fisk secretly owned and he used the opportunity to rebuild his criminal empire. Fisk also saw an opportunity to get his revenge on Murdock and faked evidence that stated that Daredevil was actually a member of the Irish Mob and had been attacking his syndicate so the Mob could take over Hell's Kitchen and that Matt Murdock was a fixer and knew everything regarding the Crime Syndicate. As a result Daredevil became the most wanted vigilante in New York and the Matt Murdock case was reopened. Murdock was arrested and convicted despite the best efforts from Foggy Nelson. Despite this Nelson managed to get his revenge by proving that Fisk has committed perjury and voter fraud which caused Fisk to be imprisoned in Ryker's once again. Fisk and Murdock were then put in cells right next to each other with the intention that both men would kill each other. Despite this Fisk and Murdock were forced to work together to survive in prison as they both had enemies inside. Fisk also learned that Nelson was working to prove the evidence against Matt was faked, and attempted to have Nelson killed but Nelson was protected by Luke Cage and Iron Fist. Foggy succeeded in proving the evidence was faked and Matt was freed and reinstated in the Bar association. Fisk was approached by Hydra who promised to bring him back to his glory if agreed to join them. Fisk agreed and as such the courts were manipulated so that Fisk was thought to have been wrongly convicted and freed. Fisk learned of Hydra's plan to take over the United States in 2030.

Fisk had no intention of actually joining Hydra and instead smuggled weapons to his syndicate and hatched a plan to appear to be a hero in the upcoming invasion instead of warning anyone. In 2030, the Hydra invasion began and they successfully took over several cities including New York and Las Vegas. Fisk then began funding resistances in both cities and using his criminal empire to sabotage Hydra using the resources he took from them. Eventually the many resistances, superhero teams, and the United States government successfully defeated Hydra. Fisk used the event to improve his reputation.

### Marvel Knights and Downfall

In 2031 Daredevil, having grown tired of Fisk constantly avoiding arrest, created a team consisting of himself, Spider-Man, Iron Fist, Shang Chi, Luke Cage, and Jessica Jones known as the Marvel Knights to defeat Fisk. The group decided to have Shang Chi go undercover as a member of Kingpin's triads and grow close to him. Shang Chi, under the alias of Tao, rose up in the ranks of the Kingpin Crime Syndicate. Fisk, paranoid because of his experience regarding his son, began suspecting that something wrong was happening and kidnapped Shang-Chi. Fisk then began torturing Shang-Chi, however he refused to tell him any information regarding the Marvel Knights. Jessica Jones discovered what happened and Daredevil then organized a raid of the Kingpin's Hideout to rescue Shang-Chi. The Knights rescued Shang-Chi who secretly had data that revealed all of Fisk's criminal dealings. As the Knights escaped the compound they were beset by the Hand and the Assassin's Guild. The Knights began fighting them off, however while Daredevil was fighting Lady Bullseye, she ripped of his mask in the middle of the street and his identity as Matt Murdock was revealed to the world. The Knights then escaped and uploaded the evidence to the Internet and presented it to the federal government. Fisk was furious about the events, however he took some solace that Murdock was being investigated and once again disbarred for his work as Daredevil. Fisk spent the next year in legal battles with the entire United States because of the Marvel Knights incident. Foggy Nelson led the trials against Fisk and Fisk attempted to have him assassinated however Daredevil defeated Bullseye and the incident served as the catalyst for warrants for Fisk’s arrest. Fisk’s properties outside of New York were seized by the government, however, Fisk then initiated an all-out war against New York and Superheroes. The war continued until 2032 when Daredevil, Spider-Man, and Luke Cage led a police infiltration of Fisk Tower that culminated in an all-out battle between the Superheroes and Fisk’s forces. Fisk was finally subdued and arrested; Fisk was sentenced to life-long imprisonment at The Raft.

### Final Imprisonment & Escape

Fisk was immediately set upon by inmates who wanted to kill Fisk for a multitude of reasons ranging from wanting bragging rights to revenge. Fisk outclassed all of these assailants and quickly grew to dominate the general population of The Raft and even managed to retain control of the Kingpin Criminal Syndicate in prison, although his control was greatly reduced and the syndicate outside of the prison fell apart. In 2038, Fisk escaped the raft by using a double and used a prison riot to kill the double. Fisk decided to retire to Okinawa, however, he still wanted to get revenge on Daredevil and Spider-Man. Fisk acquired the synthetic symbiote that the Ghost Spider had used and then attempted to use it to kill both men. Both men survived, however, Daredevil knew that Fisk escaped.

### Taking over the Yakuza

Fisk realizing that both Spider-Man and Daredevil survived knew that he needed protection in the event that either hero discovered his location. Without the help of the Hand, Fisk was alone aside from a few bodyguards. Fisk decided to take over the majority of the Yakuza in Japan. Using the same tactics he used in New York and using the alias of **Shinzo Hamasaki** and **Oyabun** Fisk managed to unite the Yakuza of southern Japan and made an establishment in Okinawa for the head of his new group.

### Final Confrontation with Daredevil and Death

In 2040, Daredevil tracked Fisk to Japan. Daredevil began making moves against Fisk's Yakuza and over the course of a few months he managed to locate Fisk's hideout in Okinawa. It was there where Daredevil confronted Fisk and the two fought for several hours. Daredevil, at his wit's end, brutally beat Fisk to death with his batons. Fisk however had the last laugh as he secretly had the fight recorded and posted on the internet, which caused the public to turn on Daredevil.

## Legacy

Fisk was one of the most powerful and richest men in New York City for most of the 21st century. Fisk secretly set the course of the world through his wealth and was remembered as one of the most important men in history. Fisk was also listed as being one of the most hated men in America after his secret was uncovered. For most of his life, Fisk was thought of an arbiter of New York and the Kingpin was thought to be a fictional bogeyman.

The immediate effects of Fisk's arrest was wanton violence due to the collapse of the syndicate's order and the many gangs and organizations becoming independent.

## Personality

Fisk was a cunning and manipulative man and was obsessed with power. Fisk believed that by commanding all of the crime in New York that he would essentially run the city and satisfy his want for power. Fisk was a psychopath although he hid this from others exceptionally well.
