Kingpin's return to the MCU is a very confusing run (to a lesser extent Daredevil)

So Daredevil Born Again S2 is out, personally I have a lot of issues with the show, but I want to first talk about how Wilson Fisk's return to the MCU is extremely bumpy and confusing.

To recap, Fisk was put back into the prison during the end of Netflix DD S3. And in the 2021 Hawkeye TV show, Fisk had a surprise cameo where he is revealed to be the real bad guy behind the scenes, highlighting his return and officially canonizing the Netflix Marvel show as part of the greater MCU. He was then announced to be also returning in Echo (2024), another miniseries where Fisk would play a bigger role as the main antagonist. After Echo it would be DD Born Again, which is where we at now.

And damn, Hawkeye and Echo did a piss poor job at characterizing Fisk. Narratively, it completely skips over the detail of how Fisk gets out of prison, almost making him and DD looks like reboot characters just playing by the same actor. But then Marvel makes it very clear that this is the canon Fisk from the Netflix seasons. Even if most fans accept the popular "Thanos snap gives him the oppurtunity to escape" headcanon, it still feels like an important detail to just skip over.

During Hawkeye and Echo, they gave Fisk a very significant retcon where he supposedly adopted Maya sometime before or during the event of Netlfix DD S1. Uh....sure. And also have Fisk defeated by Kate Bishop like a Home Alone villain, very convincing at hyping him up as a major villain I supposed.

They also have Fisk got shot in the eye by Maya at the end of Hawkeye, then returned in Echo where he got treated by whatever super tech so nothing actually happens. And Fisk's overall presence in Hawkeye and Echo are just...weak. I feel like viewers would be quite confused at him, because he doesn't feel like a serious threat at all. He got dunked by Kate Bishop and Maya in both shows. All he does is talk menacingly and fight like a brute. And taking hostages is super evil I guess.

And then it is DD Born Again, where all the previous events in Hawkeye/Echo are just quickly referenced once and never mentioned again. So what is the point of having Fisk return so early if they aren't committed to making Hawkeye/Echo a meaningful part of his "new" backstory? Well, the point is to build internet buzz and nothing else. They want to get the attention of the fans of the Netflix shows, without having a plan on how the character is supposed to be utilized in future projects.

And how is DDBA make use of its Netflix legacy characters, ugh it's probaby going to be in another post until S2 is concluded, I still want to hold my judgement for now.
