Wilson Fisk wasn't always the feared crime lord that he became later in life. Wilson was an unpopular and chubby kid, who was mercilessly picked on by his peers as a kid. Not partaking in the usual athletic activities of kids his age, Fisk discovered a knack for uncovering the weaknesses of others—and using them to his advantage. This proved to be a much-desired skill he'd carry into adulthood, as the criminal mastermind of New York. Wilson Fisk is ruthless, cunning, and wide-bellied, and while he lacks the superpowers of most of his foes, he does have the brains to outsmart them, at least for some time. Fisk has clashed with heroes, antiheroes, and villains alike, and has been at the center of many, if not most, wrongdoings committed in New York City. He does everything it takes to keep his grip on the New York underworld, which is why he's known as the Kingpin.
Kingpin is a famous Marvel villain who first appeared in the pages of Amazing Spider-Man #50 in 1967. Fisk began gathering power in organized crime at a young age and swiftly rose to become one of New York's most influential figures. Fisk's escapades constantly brought him into confrontations with Spider-Man and Daredevil, despite the fact that he used his intelligence and clout to hide his illicit operations. This eventually led to attempts to enter politics, which attracted Matt Murdock's notice. In the comics, the two have sparred numerous times, with Kingpin ordering assassinations on Matt's pals and exposing his double life to the world. Whenever a hero has managed to apprehend Fisk, he has always managed to escape. Today we will take a look at the most powerful crime lord on earth and wade through the murky waters of his past. Let us drive right in!
