Matt Murdock, a blind lawyer by day, Daredevil by night, hardly needs any introduction, receiving mainstream appeal, arguably, second to another neighborhood, Spider-Man.

Daredevil has appeared across various media such as a television-movie, several cartoon series, many video games and the Mark Steven Johnson-directed film with Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner. Marvel’s Daredevil has aired its most recent third season on the streaming service.

Season 3 of Daredevil saw Matt recover from his injuries since the destruction of Midland Circle and being brought into the care of Father Paul Lantom and a nun known as Maggie Grace. Meanwhile, Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio) whilst in prison set out a plan to have the FBI do his bidding after he was an informant of many criminals in the city, leaking criminal activities.

Matt abandoned his body armor for a plain and clad look, this time remaining solely as a vigilante, turning away from both friends and family. Unfortunately, Fisk also framed Daredevil by having disgraced FBI agent, Benjamin “Dex” Poindexter (Wilson Bethel) impersonate him.

Naturally, with Fisk going away for a while, Daredevil will be in need of another contender who can be a worthy match for him. That, no doubt, is Mary, who was a potential love interest and the impressive and terrific villain in the comics, made as a break from the narrative of Elektra and The Kingpin. A more likely situation would come from different angles either meeting as Matt or Daredevil. Even though Mary was introduced in Iron Fist does not mean the producers involved are not paying homage to the comics.

With Kingpin clearly out of town and Bullseye eyed for a potential return, who is to say Typhoid Mary will not receive the same treatment? Similar to what happened to Danny, perhaps Walker is tasked in order to put an end to the Man Without Fear – and she is more than capable of the job even though she lacks special abilities. She is very much skilled in studying her opponent’s strengths and countering them.
