As a terrifying villain, the Muse from Marvel Comics arguably works better thanDaredevil: Born Again’s iteration.

By confirming Muse as Bastian Cooper, the nameless villain from Marvel Comics is made more real and tangible.

The other comes in the form of Muse’s death.

That said, Heather’s murder of Muse marks another big departure from the source material.

Beyond Daredevil, Marvel Comics depicts the superhero Blindspot as a major opponent to Muse.

Blindspot often helps Daredevil fight against the serial killer, with the former eventually being responsible for his death.
