Who is Muse? Daredevil villain\u2019s comic origin explained Marvel ComicsThe 2016 Daredevil relaunch tried to give the Man Without Fear a new iconic villain in the form of Muse, a terrifying street artist who doubled as a serial killer. Daredevil has long been one of Marvel\u2019s most popular superheroes, with a title that\u2019s been in fairly constant rotation since the \u201860s. However, for all his popularity, he doesn\u2019t get a lot of new, lasting villains. It doesn\u2019t hurt that he goes toe-to-toe with some of the most memorable Marvel villains. Be it battling The Kingpin for the heart of Hell\u2019s Kitchen or engaging in the kind of classic epic ninja sagas against The Hand that gets the title a book of the year nod, Daredevil isn\u2019t hurting for classic stories. Still, there have been attempts at making new heroes. One such character was a terrifying street artist who may very well be the MCU\u2019s next big thing. Muse\u2019s origin in Daredevil comics explained Muse is introduced in the 2016 arc Dark Art. In the story, Daredevil is balancing his civilian identity\u2019s change in career as a District Attorney and his superhero identity\u2019s role as mentor to a young vigilante, Blindspot. In Dark Art, Daredevil and Blindspot discover a painting made with the blood of over 100 people. Trying to find the creator of the painting, they stumble across an art gallery where all the art pieces are the bodies of dead Inhumans. The macabre art pieces are the work of Muse, a mysterious serial killer who proves to be immune to Daredevil\u2019s enhanced senses. He attempts to kidnap city officials to make a new art piece but is stopped by Blindspot. Before Daredevil can intervene, Blindspot has his eyes gouged out for his trouble. Muse would be imprisoned by the Inhumans but escaped in the wake of New York\u2019s anti-vigilante laws enabled by The Kingpin, Wilson Fisk. Blindspot, who by this time had regained his eyesight by allying with The Hand but was succumbing to the influence of The Beast, called out Muse by defacing one of his art pieces. Blindspot and Muse would fight, but Blindspot fought off the influence of the Beast long enough to refuse to kill him. Muse, distraught that Blindspot stole his spotlight, walked into a burning debris pile to his death. He\u2019s remained dead ever since, but given how often characters are revived by The Hand or other means, it\u2019s not a stretch to believe he could return at some point.
