Bullseye (Comic Book Character)

 One of the best villains in the Daredevil series and arguably the greatest villain that Daredevil has ever faced. Bullseye!

The character was created by writer Marv Wolfman and artist John Romita Sr (RIP). Bullseye made his debut in March of 1976 in Daredevil issue #131 and has become one of the best and most dangerous opponents that Daredevil has ever come face to face with. In fact, Bullseye also has dealings with The Punisher as well.

Though he has no super powers to speak of, that doesn't make him any less dangerous. Bullseye is an expert marksman who can use anything as a lethal projectile. Whether it is shuriken, a sai or just a simple playing card, Bullseye could end your life in a matter of seconds.

Although he uses the name Benjamin Poindexter in the comic books as well the Daredevil series on Netflix as well as the up coming Born Again series. The truth of the matter is, no one really knows the true origin or real name of Bullseye. He is a complete unknown and even when the comic book mini series that came out in 2004 which was suppose to explain his origins only for it to be revealed that Bullseye fabricated some if not all of it.

What makes Bullseye such an amazing villain in my humble opinion is that he is just a straight homicidal manic. I mean this guy literally takes great pleasure in killing his targets and to be honest, can be tough to read sometimes especially when doing the character right. Bullseye is everything that Daredevil isn't and also trying to avoid becoming and he certainly pushes Daredevil to his limits on a number of occasions.

Obviously the biggest pain Bullseye has ever caused Daredevil was the night he challenged and basically murdered Daredevil's former lover Elektra. And the only reason why he did was because he was upset that Kingpin replaced with her as his chief assassin. The problem was this still didn't get his job back with the Kingpin.

We are getting closer to Daredevil Born Again which will be debuting on Disney Plus on March 4. Wilson Bethal who played Bullseye in the Netflix series is coming back to play him in this series. Which I am excited for because I felt he did a great job.

Fingers crossed!

Until Next Time!

God Bless and Be Safe Everybody! 🙏🙏🙏

2009 Lewistown Panthers Baseball

 Well, with me trying to become more positive about myself, I have been looking back into the past and find ways to let go of some of the negative emotions attached to it. One such issue was going back to my time at Lewistown Area High School which as mentioned before was a huge struggle for me.  But again, trying to be more positive, I wanted to look back at that time and remember some of the good moments during that period. One of which was playing for the Lewistown Panthers baseball team. Heading into my senior year of high school, I wasn't in the best state of mind. Honestly, I really did not want to be there anymore, I was just so sick of life, never thought I was going to be anything. All I ever was going to be was a huge disappointment. I can only give credit to God for being able to get through that year. But then baseball tryouts came along and I decided to go for it again. The previous years I've tried only to fail, which in fairness, wasn't much of a surprise bec...

The Wacky Adventures Of Joshua and Chad: McVeytown Eagles Championship Parade!

Image
Well tonight was a pretty special night down here in McVeytown as Chad and I along with many other people who live here in McVeytown all came together to celebrate a special accomplishment. And that was how all three of the McVeytown Eagles teams made it to the CKYFL championship games. Winning in both the Peewee and Midget divisions and placing second in the Mighty Mights. Stuff like this doesn't happen often in such a small town where I live so to see these kids have the time of their lives during the parade was certainly a sight to see. One of the things I love about covering sports is when I see kids learn, work hard and turn it into success. And these kids were learning a lot throughout the season and watching them grow and not only become better football players, but better people as well.  Which is why I have really enjoyed covering the CKYFL these last few years for Hometown Sports. People like Travis McCullough who is the President of the league along with Adam Weaver, Rob...

Nick is a local mechanic who has been serving this community for many, many years and has always been a generous, hard worker and honorable person at the Dickson's Garage along with his father Ken. He and his father are also local racing legends around here in Mifflin County having raced for a couple generations now. Nick and his family have always been honest with me and my family and has helped take care of our vehicles for many years. They are amazing,  hardworking people who now need our help. And according to the go fund me page that was set up by Andrea Baker and Valeri Thornburgh. The doctors had told his family that it will take months at minimum for him to be able to recover and will not be able to work for the foreseeable future. Please support anyway you can for the Dickson family in their time of need. ...
