2. Bloody Mary, “Walker”, Typhoid Mary become an assassin

This brings us to our next path Mary could lead: a life of contract killings. While Mary parted ways from the violent life, Walker embraced it and is pretty well–trained in that field – bagging and tagging anyway. She took down two bearers of the Iron Fist, despite lacking superhuman abilities. Walker is a very competent fighter, capable of taking on Misty Knight, Colleen and Danny himself.

While the cruel Walker aimed to have a carefree, independent life she wished to craft for herself after than being involved with a mercenary career full-time, how long is she really away till something else comes knocking on her door for the right price? Plus not many veterans of the armed forces have been well–adjusted back into society once they have served. Another thing is within an MCU setting with the Avengers, a demigod and a gamma-irradiated monster running amok, what really is normal?

It is not very known if Bloody Mary will be a part of the MCU, but Typhoid Mary is the likely candidate that viewers have not met quite as yet, who will surely be introduced sometime in the future. Mary, Walker, Typhoid Mary and Bloody Mary could all possibly co-exist, but the latter three are more equipped for a dangerous lifestyle.

However, Typhoid is the more adventurous type, who is likely the most resilient to live on being an assassin. Walker, despite her stoic and cruel nature when carrying out missions, she has honor and refrains from killing innocents and is the one who will attempt to do the right in spite of her brutal methods. Typhoid, after all, has been known to be not as loyal; is frisky, vindictive and a manipulator.

Typhoid, as noted, was an assassin for The Kingpin. She hired a list of cronies to best Daredevil such as Ammo, Bullet, Bushwacker and the Wild Boys before Typhoid had brought the Man Without Fear down. Typhoid would be a worthy adversary for both Matt Murdock and Daredevil other than The Kingpin if the showrunner and Marvel Television ever decide to do so as part of Netflix.
