Kingpin

The Kingpin is a supervillain appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character was created by Stan Lee and John Romita Sr. and first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man #50 (cover-dated July 1967). Introduced as an adversary of Spider-Man, he later became the primary antagonist of Daredevil under Frank Miller, beginning in 1981, and is regarded as one of that character''''s two archenemies, alongside Bullseye. Kingpin is the persona of Wilson Fisk, who presents himself publicly as a businessman and philanthropist while running New York City''''s criminal underworld from behind that cover. He has no superpowers. Most of his bulk is muscle rather than fat, and he has trained in unarmed combat disciplines, including sumo wrestling. A network of lawyers, charitable donations, and carefully managed public appearances has allowed him to operate while law enforcement agencies, from the New York City Police Department to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, have tracked him for years without producing a successful prosecution. He is the father of Richard Fisk and the former guardian of Maya Lopez. He was married first to Vanessa Fisk and later to Typhoid Mary. Kingpin h
