3. Sent Nuke To Hell's Kitchen

After Kingpin destroyed his life, Daredevil was eventually able to put it back together again. He moved in with Karen Page, helped her through her addiction and began working at a diner to support them both. However, Kingpin had become obsessed with killing Daredevil and so sent Nuke after him.

Nuke was a supersoldier, created in an attempt to recreate Captain America for the Vietnam War. While the procedure succesfully copied Cap's powers, it destroyed Nuke's mind, leaving him a bloodthirsty madman.

In an attempt to draw out Daredevil, Nuke went on a rampage across Hell's Kitchen, indiscriminately gunning down civilians and destroying Matt's diner. Suiting up for the first time since his breakdown, Daredevil was able to stop him. In the process though, he was forced to kill Nuke's helicopter pilot to stop him from killing more civilians.

Matt then tried to convince Nuke to testify against the Kingpin, but he was shot by the military before he had a chance. The plan still blew up in Kingpins face though. Even though no-one could ever prove that Fisk was behind the assault, the countless allegations and lawsuits against him completely ruined the image of a respectable businessman that he had worked so hard to cultivate.
