As part of the promotion for the upcoming third season of the Netflix Daredevil TV series, Marvel officially revealed that Bullseye will be one of the main villains of the new season, played by actor Wilson Bethel.

While the season will be taking a number of its cues from the classic Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli storyline, "Born Again," one of the interesting aspects of introducing Bullseye to the series is that there are so many notable storylines featuring Daredevil and Bullseye over the years that it is practically impossible to guess which stories, precisely, will actually be featured on the series. However, it likely helps to at least revisit the key moments of their epic rivalry to see which stories are most likely to be referenced.

Like another classic villain, the Joker, little is known of Bullseye's origins because he has offered up so many conflicting versions of his past that it is unclear how many of these stories are actually true, if any of them. One of the more notable origins involved Bullseye being a famous baseball player who threw eight and two-thirds no-hit innings in his first Major League Baseball game before he got bored and wanted to leave the game. When the opposing team's next batter mocked him, he then threw a pitch at his head, killing him, stating only "Bullseye" as it nailed him.

Bullseye made his debut in late 1975's Daredevil #131 (by Marv Wolfman, Bob Brown and Klaus Janson). An earlier assassin named "Bulls-Eye" debuted a few years earlier in an issue of Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. (even seemingly succeeding in assassinating Nick Fury), but it is does not appear as though Wolfman was intending for this new character to be a revamped version of that villain.

Bullseye had a great gimmick. Besides the whole "able to turn any object into a deadly weapon" angle, he would extort people to pay him $100,000 or he would kill them. He had to make a demonstration of his skills at first to get the others to pay...

He similarly arranged a fight to the death with Daredevil at a circus to show the whole world how dangerous he was. After Daredevil escaped that initial deathtrap, the hero also foiled Bullseye's next murder attempt...

Bullseye became a recurring villain for the Man Without Fear, but besides his awesome costume and equally awesome gimmick, it was not like there was a deep connection between the hero and the villain.

That changed in Daredevil #161 (by Roger McKenzie, Frank Miller and Klaus Janson), when we learned that Bullseye had become obsessed with his defeats to Daredevil and he even kidnapped and mentally tortured Black Widow to try to get back at Daredevil. When Daredevil once again defeated him, Bullseye's mind just snapped...

In the second issue of Frank Miller's run as the writer and penciler on Daredevil (with Klaus Janson as his inker, before Janson transitioned to penciling and inking the book over Miller's layouts once the title went monthly), he revealed that Bullseye was so obsessed with Daredevil that he saw strangers on the street as ol' Hornhead and he would kill them, thinking he was killing Daredevil...

It turned out that he was suffering from a brain tumor. Daredevil had to prove his selflessness by helping his deadly enemy seek the medical help he needed when he easily could have just let a subway train kill Bullseye after a fight (or just let the tumor kill him). Miller had great plans for the villain in his run.

The tumor was successfully removed and, of course, Bullseye went right back to killing. In a notable storyline called "Gangwar," the other mob bosses in New York City aligned to take down Wilson Fisk, the so-called Kingpin of Crime. They hired Bullseye to kill Fisk...

Ultimately, however, Bullseye was wooed away by Fisk to go work for him instead...

However, Daredevil was naturally irate that his act of kindness was "repaid" by Bullseye continuing his killing spree, so Daredevil and Bullseye fought each other man-to-man and Daredevil won in the end, embarrassing Bullseye in front of his new employer...

Kingpin decided to replace the disgraced killer with a new chief assassin, Elektra, the former lover of Daredevil!

After escaping from prison, Bullseye hunted Elektra down and manage to out duel in her a battle to the death, killing her with her own sai...

An enraged Daredevil hunted Bullseye down. The two had a chase throughout the rooftops of New York City, with Bullseye desperately trying to avoid the vengeance-seeking hero. Ultimately, though, after Bullseye slipped on a battle along some telephone wires, Daredevil still tried to save Bullseye's life. The assassin, though, refused to be saved again by Daredevil and tried to stab Daredevil, causing the hero to let him drop (or was Daredevil going to let him drop anyways? It's a fascinating question)...

In the final issue of Miller's legendary run, Daredevil #191, Daredevil visits the now-paralyzed Bullseye in a prison hospital and plays a game of Russian Roulette with the villain...

At the end of the issue, after the previous five clicks went without incident, the last "turn" was left for Bullseye. Daredevil pointed the gun at Bullseye's forehead and pulled the trigger and revealed that the gun had no bullets in it. However, while this ostensibly spared Bullseye's life, it still was a special kind of torture and it was something that the assassin never forgot.

Daredevil's paralysis was cured through the use of adamantium laced throughout his skeleton, similar to what Wolverine has. In Daredevil #200 (by Denny O'Neil, William Johnson and Danny Bulanadi), the returned Bullseye gets a rematch with Daredevil (to prove himself to the Kingpin, who knows that Bullseye will undoubtedly fail again) and tells him that he won't kill Daredevil just like Daredevil won't kill him, he will just make sure that Daredevil knows that every future victim of Bulleye's will be someone whose life could have been saved had Daredevil just killed him...

Daredevil almost snaps and kills Bullseye, but cannot bring himself to do it. The decision was a freeing one for the Man Without Fear.

Frank Miller had plans to use Bullseye in a Daredevil graphic novel, but the story kept getting pushed back. This likely explains why Bullseye did not appear much in the 1980s. Eventually, he returned in the early 1990s. In an unusual storyline towards the end of Ann Nocenti's run on Daredevil (with artists Kieron Dwyer and Fred Fredericks), an amensiac Daredevil encounters Bullseye. Bullseye imprisons the hero and impersonates him to besmirch Daredevil's reputation. Over time, the villain slowly begins to believe that he is actually the real Daredevil. When the real Daredevil recovers his memory, he snaps Bullseye out of it by impersonating the villain himself for the most unusual "Daredevil" vs. "Bullseye" fight of all time...

During Kevin Smith, Joe Quesada and Jimmy Palmiotti's launch of Daredevil as part of the then-new Marvel Knights line of comics, Bullseye is hired by Mysterio as part of an attempt to destroy Daredevil's life. In the process, Bullseye kills Daredevil's long-time love, Karen Page...

Smith wanted to be sure to be the writer who would handle the follow-up fight between Daredevil and Bullseye, so Marvel kept the villain off-limits. Eventually, Smith began to tell the follow-up meeting in the miniseries, Daredevil: The Target, with artist Glenn Fabry.

Smith incorporated the new look for Bullseye that was used in the then-recent Daredevil film.

However, the series was never finished. Ultimately, regular Daredevil writer Brian Michael Bendis was allowed to use Bullseye in the regular Daredevil series and in Daredevil #49, Daredevil "broke" Bullseye once more (this was all part of the nervous breakdown that Daredevil himself was dealing with due to the trauma of Karen Page's death)...

In a dramatic storyline in the Shadowland crossover, after trying to take control of the Hand, Daredevil was possessed by a demon and then killed Bullseye in front of the whole world...

Naturally, this being comics, Bullseye was resurrected, but he remained paralyzed. He had to then use his mind to attack Daredevil. He manipulated a series of events to take down Daredevil during Mark Waid and Chris Samnee's run on Daredevil, but ultimately the Man Without Fear prevailed (and outmaneuvered Bullseye's seemingly perfect machinations) and the paralyzed Bullseye was also blinded...

This being comics, he got better (and was healed of his paralysis). The most recent meeting between Daredevil and Bullseye happened when a guilt-stricken Daredevil decided to put out a contract on his own life to catch any contract killers who take the assignment. When Bullseye is one of the people who answers the call, Daredevil briefly considers whether he wants to just let Bullseye finish him off, but ultimately he decides that he wants to live...

This was just a brief encounter, though, so their next "real" meeting is well overdue.
