100 Greatest Marvels of All Time Vol 1 1

, a courageous astronaut about to be launched into orbit in a space capsule. J. Jonah Jameson calls his son a "real hero."

The day of the launch finds Peter Parker at the launch site as an observer. The rocket takes off successfully, but a guidance system error causes it to go wildly off course and re-enter the atmosphere. Spider-Man appears at the launch site and offers to replace the defective 24-3B guidance unit in the plunging capsule with a spare. Because there is no way for the military to get to the capsule in time, they allow Spider-Man to try.

Spider-Man commandeers an aircraft and pilot, and together they fly toward the space capsule's re-entry point. Although the capsule is falling fast, Spider-Man manages to get hold of it with his webbing and climbs aboard. He quickly replaces the faulty guidance unit. As a result, John Jameson regains control of the capsule, gets it properly oriented, and opens its parachute. To the joy of all concerned, the astronaut is saved.

Thinking that Spider-Man has at last proved himself, Peter Parker is shocked when he reads J. Jonah Jameson's editorial in the next edition of the Daily Bugle. Spider-Man is accused of deliberately sabotaging the space capsule and staging the rescue as a publicity stunt. With public opinion turning against Spider-Man with each new editorial in the Daily Bugle, Peter Parker's position is as hopeless as ever.

 * Synopsis4          = The story opens with Bullseye exercising in a gym in prison, plotting his escape and revenge against Daredevil. He recounts how in their last battle, after his brain tumor laid him unconscious, Daredevil dragged his body out of the way of a train, saving his life. As a journalist discusses the possibility of a televised interview with Bullseye, it becomes apparent that having the brain tumor removed has rendered Bullseye susceptible to terrible headaches requiring pills that his "handler" Harry guards, and takes pleasure in making Bullseye suffer to get. After a brief conversation with the Punisher, who is also serving time at the same prison, Bullseye discovers the Kingpin has a new assassin, and so redoubles his efforts to escape from Prison.

That evening he conducts the pre-agreed interview, during which he fakes one of his headaches. He spits the pill into the guard's eye, blinding him, before taking the journalist hostage, and shooting Harry with his own gun. After escaping to the rooftop, he kills a police sniper before stealing a helicopter and flying it back to New York. Once there, he seeks our Eric Slaughter, a former employer in order to get information on this new Assassin, as well as Daredevil. After soundly thrashing Slaughter's men, he retires to a safe house to look over the files, and starts to link Elektra with Matt Murdock and Matt Murdock with Daredevil, finding the idea of Daredevil being blind highly amusing.

The next day, Bullseye spends his time shadowing Foggy Nelson who Elektra has been hired to kill. Elektra kidnaps Foggy in a taxi, planning to lead him to a quiet place to kill him, but Foggy recognizes her as Matt's Girlfriend from College. Elektra has a change of heart and lets him go, but Bullseye has followed them, and he and Elektra fight. Although Elektra puts up a good fight, Bullseye is victorious, stunning Elektra long enough to slit her throat with his trademark Ace of Spades playing card, before stabbing her in the heart with her own Sai. He follows Elektra as she crawls away and watches from the shadows as she dies in Matt's arms.

Sneaking into the morgue where Elektra's body is, Bullseye watches Matt and Foggy identify her. Noticing that Matt noticeably stiffens when he hears Bullseye speak, he decides to test his theory of Daredevil's identity and throws a scalpel, which Matt casually blocks with his cane. Bullseye sprints out of the morgue, and goes straight to the Kingpin, to whom he (tries) to present his new found knowledge of Daredevil's identity. The Kingpin dismisses it as fantasy, and tells Bullseye to kill Daredevil, then they can discuss business again.

Bullseye attempts to ambush Matt at his home, sneaking up on his as he sits dictating case notes. He is therefore rather surprised when Daredevil attacks him, having used a Dummy to trick him. Although now convinced that Murdock and Daredevil aren't the same person, Bullseye fights using Elektra's sais. They battle over the rooftops before fighting balanced on a high wire. Bullseye slips, and Daredevil lets him fall, breaking all of his bones in the process.

The story ends with Bullseye once again narrating. We see the Kingpin burn the files Bullseye gave him on Murdock, Elektra and Daredevil. We see Matt at Elektra's grave, whilst Bullseye gloats of having hurt him, if not Daredevil. Finally, we see Bullseye. He has been left paralyzed, and unable to speak from his fall. Even in this state, he vows to heal, and finally get his revenge on Daredevil.
