Now that Bullseye is back from the dead, but is deaf, blind and immobile, what do you think will happen to him? Should he appear again soon or be given a long vacation before appearing again? Should the writers focus on other villains instead for the time being? |

I personally think that he came back too soon.I don't think his return was handled very well either but as to your question I have no idea what Marvel should do with him now. I wanted to see Bullseye come back more dangerous than ever. |

Well it did create a new story for Bullseye that was certainly different from his previous stories, sometimes its good to take a villain a new direction, so they don't get into a rut. Plus I do think Daredevil needed a story where some villain tries to ruin his life, fails and is punished for it, its a nice on the usual Born Again style stories that seem to be fall DD every 5 years ago.
Bullseye is so vile, that his crimes do deserve an extreme punishment, it is satisfying to see a monster get his just deserts.
As I said before, I like the villains that Miller used, Bullseye, Kingpin, the Hand, etc. But I think they have been over exposed over the decade and sometimes its good to give these villains a vacation, so the writers can revamp and use other DD villains. |

I like the fact that Bullseye is back again!! I also like the fact that he is behind Matt's troubles!!! The fact that he is using his brain and not his usual skills to hurt Matt is the best part of the story. After Shadowland i wanted a BIG DD story or even a mini series for the return of Bullseye, but now seeing this I though that a big event isn't always the best way to bring back a character. Mark Waid did a nice work here. I think we'll see him again at some point!! _________________

I would like someone to bring back Death Stalker and use him. |

Bullseye will probably be back throwing knives and playing cards with his eyes closed soon enough. I really wish Dr Doom or someone else would have created Ikari. I don't like that he's so closely tied to Bullseye, like a sidekick.
I'm aware that we're reading fiction, but someone like Bullseye was able to recreate the exact mix of radioactive waste that gave Matt Murdock radar sense ~50 years ago? He had money and not a lot to keep himself occupied, but that explanation is a bit of a stretch. It was radioactive waste from the 60's - who knows what's in there? Someone kept records for all this time?
It's a shame that there's a formula for radar sense all of the sudden. It kind of cheapens the ability itself and the amount of effort it takes Matt to control it.
I'll agree that Bullseye was brought back a lil' too soon and the reveal felt a little rushed. |

I never took it as Bullseye recreated the formula, but that he was able to hire scientists who could with enough R&D. I still agree his being the mastermind was a bit of a stretch, but Waid stuck the landing like the pro he is.
I know this has zero percent chance of happening and is probably an unpopular opinion but I think this Bullseye should stay gone. Lester has completely outlived his usefulness as a character. Everything that can be done with him has been. He's totally and utterly beaten. Nobody killed him, but he has been dealt the perfect punishment. Blind, deaf, mute, no feeling of any kind. Trapped in the broken deteriorating prison of his own useless body. JUSTICE.
Now Lady Bullseye and Ikari can fill the role Bullseye once did. Two master assassins with personal reasons to hate Matt Murdock. Lady Bullseye should drop the "lady" and just be Bullseye from now on. Ikari is a character with nothing but potential.
Let the old character fade away and embrace the new.
Of course this is Marvel so I give it less than 18 months before Bullseye shows up again in some Marvel book. Probably "more deadly than ever" as a ridiculous magical cyborg. |

Marvel should have kept him dead for at least 5 years |

it would be a miracle if he stays out for 5 months.
With all the money he has gathered to do all that plan against DD he can easily be said to have grown a cloned body somewhere and then transferred his consciousness inside it. BAM, instant comeback. |
