InDevil ’s Reign , Wilson Fisk utilize his influence and big businessman as NYC city manager to outlaw all superheroes in the city . Fisk ’s decision causes all New York superheroes to join forces against him , include the Fantastic Four , Moon Knight , Elektra , Daredevil , Jessica Jones , and Luke Cage .

Kingpin’s Rumored Anti-Vigilante Campaign Ties Perfectly Into Luke Cage Season 2
Wilson Fisk will likely begin his political political campaign and possibly be constitute NYC city manager during the events ofDaredevil : deliver Again , after which he could ban all vigilance man and superheroes in the urban center . Kingpin already has the idealistic justification to achieve it : hero such as Daredevil , Spider - Man , the Punisher , and Luke Cage work outside the law of nature and remain unregulated after the Sokovia Accords became a bankruptcy . SinceLuke Cage was last seen becoming Harlem ’s top crime bossand taking over Harlem ’s Paradise , he ’s the gross object for Kingpin to paint superhumans and vigilance man in a bad light to the public .

Which Street-Level Heroes Kingpin Seems Most Likely To Target
Kingpin ’s political destination may be a frame of retaliation against Daredevil , Hawkeye , and Echo , who Wilson Fisk could oppress as soon as he can . However , Kingpin might wish to begin with easier target . As a literal crime lord , Luke Cage provides Kingpin with the stark example of superhumans using their abilities to break the jurisprudence , despite the fact that Cage took over Harlem ’s Paradise precisely to terminate literal criminals before they gain traction . Similarly , the Punisher only murders offender , but his crimes are easy to portray as the ware of a mass manslayer ’s irrational infantile fixation on bloodshed .
Jon Bernthal ’s Punisher may become a key eccentric to the street - level MCU after a major villain ’s promise to take over NYC in Phase 5 .
After some success persecutingMCU street - spirit level heroes , and with the help of diarist and conspiracy theorists like J. Jonah Jameson , Kingpin can well pull wires the public ’s percept of heroes as powerful as Spider - Man . Despite his power , Spider - Man might be more vulnerable to ground threat like Kingpin due to his recent deficiency of resource . Likewise , Jessica Jones , Iron Fist , Colleen Wing , Misty Knight , and Claire Temple could also be targetedand denigrate by Kingpin , in part due to their illegal activities , and in part due to their connections to Daredevil .
What symbolise a dangerous superhuman or vigilance man for Kingpin is indecipherable , however . Doctor Strange and Wong areknown Avengers based in New York , but stopping a little criminal offense or plainly using their magic in world could position them beside Daredevil andLuke Cage . Other Avengers like Ant - Man , Hulk , and Bucky Barnes could also be confine temporarily if they show up in New York while Wilson Fisk is in power . Perhaps the only zep who could avoid sound issue in New York could be James Rhodes a.k.a . War Machine and Sam Wilson a.k.a . Captain America , who comprise the US Air Force and the government , severally .
