10 Most Inappropriate Daredevil Storylines Ever

1. Daredevil Blackmails A Woman Into Marriage

Daredevil Black Widow 2
Marvel Comics

After Matt becomes romantically involved with a woman named Heather, he endeavours to use his knowledge from crimefighting to blackmail her into marrying him, as otherwise he will reveal the secret illegal dealings her company is involved in.

Not only is this a complete misuse of Matt's secret identity, it's also the single worst way to arrange a wedding of all time.

The pair break up, but only because Foggy and Black Widow conspire to separate the two before Daredevil goes full on villain mode on the poor woman.

As if this isn't immoral enough, when Daredevil hears Heather call for help sometime later, Matt ignores her after learning she isn't in any physical danger. Heather - isolated without any loved ones to support her - then kills herself. It's a hugely dark moment, that reminds us that sometimes being a superhero is just checking up on someone who seems to be struggling.
