DAREDEVIL KILLED BULLSEYE WITH HIS OWN SAI — THE SAME WAY BULLSEYE KILLED ELEKTRA!

The Featured Fact

In Shadowland Vol. 1 #1 (2010), Bullseye escaped custody during a transfer, slaughtered his escort and walked uninvited into the Hand's new fortress in Hell's Kitchen to challenge its leader. The leader was Daredevil, and Matt Murdock met the taunt without a trace of his old restraint.

Bullseye cut through the Hand ninjas sent against him, then discovered his oldest opponent had changed the rules. Daredevil dislocated both of the assassin's shoulders and drove a sai through his chest, killing him on the spot in front of his own ninja army.

The method was the message. Decades earlier, in Daredevil #181, Bullseye had impaled Elektra on one of her own sai to win back his place as the Kingpin's chief assassin. Murdock repaid that exact wound with interest, and the killing became the first unmistakable step in his possession by the Beast of the Hand.

Why It's Obscure

He spent a career throwing the last word; in Shadowland the reply arrived holding his own weapon.

2010

An invitation nobody sent — Fresh from escaping a Raft transfer, Bullseye chose the fortress as his venue, expecting a duel and finding an execution instead.

The shoulders

Disarmed in the literal sense — Before the fatal blow, Daredevil wrecked both of Bullseye's arms, neutralising the aim that had defined the man's entire career.

1982

The original sai killing — Elektra died crawling toward Murdock's doorstep after Bullseye ran her through with her own weapon, a panel Shadowland deliberately mirrored.

Aftermath

A resurrection that misfired — Lady Bullseye later tried to raise him for the Hand, a botched return covered in this archive on October 29, and the grave only briefly kept him.
