No Such Thing as Bad Publicity | |
| Guardian Devil (Comic Book) / int_12b1f5f3 | comment |
No Such Thing as Bad Publicity: Defied In-Universe, Rosalind Sharpe believes that any attempt to defend Foggy after Mysterio frames him for rape and murder would result in bad publicity, so she fires Foggy and refuses to let Matt use company assets to defend him in court. Keep in mind, Sharpe is Foggy's mother, so she's trying to leave her own son(!) out of dry. Naturally, after other issues Matt had with her, this leads to Matt quitting the firm, Foggy distancing himself from Sharpe once he's cleared of the charges, and the two restarting "Neslon and Murdock". | |

Not-So-Harmless Villain | |
| Guardian Devil (Comic Book) / int_171ef47c | comment |
Not-So-Harmless Villain: A dying Mysterio decided to try and drive Daredevil so insane that he almost murders an infant with a ridiculously convoluted scheme, just because at the time Ben Reilly was Spider-Man, and the dying Mysterio wanted a grand exit and felt it would be wasted on Reilly, who Mysterio had subconsciously picked up was not the original Spider-Man. | |

| Guardian Devil (Comic Book) / int_1ca6727d | comment |
Actually a Doombot: Mysterio makes a robot duplicate that is so incredibly realistic, that he manages to convince Daredevil, the man who can hear heartbeats, into believing that Mysterio is dead. | |

Rogues' Gallery Transplant: Mysterio, a Spider-Man villain, had Daredevil as his "adopted" nemesis during an arc because The Clone Saga deal kept Mysterio from knowing if Spider-Man was the real thing or just a clone. | |

Ate His Gun: Mysterio killed himself this way after finding that Daredevil would not kill him for the death of Karen Page (He also references Kraven's suicide beforehand). He came back but with half of his head missing. | |

Motive Rant | |
| Guardian Devil (Comic Book) / int_4d044580 | comment |
Motive Rant: Mysterio has quite a speech about his motives in the finale, and implies that there's more still about just how he became a "monster" who would do all these things. Matt, in keeping with acting utterly unimpressed in this issue, spends most of that same time "rambling about how clever" he is isolating the "hum" of his suit's main battery. | |

Spanner in the Works | |
| Guardian Devil (Comic Book) / int_60194b82 | comment |
Spanner in the Works: Part of Mysterio's plan involved infecting Daredevil with a toxin that would provoke him into a rage any time anyone suggested to him that the baby wasn't the Antichrist, but Doctor Strange is able to detect the toxin and purge it from Daredevil's system. He subsequently helps Daredevil confirm that the baby genuinely isn't the Antichrist, allowing Matt to get a better idea of what he's up against. | |

Too Broken to Break: This happens again in a later storyline when Mysterio tries to break Daredevil as his dying act, only for him to deliver a scathing "The Reason You Suck" Speech and explain why that's not possible. | |

Driven to Suicide | |
| Guardian Devil (Comic Book) / int_6d332aea | comment |
Driven to Suicide: Mysterio learned he had cancer and wouldn't last long. After making Daredevil's life a living hell, Daredevil defeats him and accuses him of ripping off The Kingpin with his plan to drive Daredevil insane and repeating a "supernatural intruding upon the real world" scheme he had previously used on J. Jonah Jameson. Subsequently, Beck shoots himself in the head while claiming to steal an idea from Kraven the Hunter. What's worse? The only reason he went after Daredevil was that he didn't want to deal with the Spider-Man that was active at the time (implied to be the clone Ben Reilly). | |

"The Reason You Suck" Speech | |
| Guardian Devil (Comic Book) / int_7d89315b | comment |
"The Reason You Suck" Speech: Mysterio, after learning he's dying, launches an Evil Plan to ruin Daredevil's life and goad him into killing him. Daredevil beats him down; and then after denying him what he wants, verbally tears both the plan and Mysterio to pieces. Not disagreeing, Beck then admits that he does have one more idea to steal — Kraven the Hunter's — and promptly shoots himself in the head. | |

Armor-Piercing Response: As Daredevil expresses frustration with his life after the confrontation with Mysterio suggests that there are no real innocents and the heroes aren't actually helping anyone, he asks Spider-Man to tell him one thing from the last few weeks that makes sense. Peter simply responds that Matt saved the baby girl's life, leaving Matt with a new sense of hope for the future. | |

The Last Dance: Mysterio has terminal cancer that'll claim him in less than a year, so he decides to go out trying to take down a superhero, but quickly realized the last Spider-Man he faced was a clone — then he remembered that shortly after the crisis with Onslaught, when The Avengers were missing and thought dead, he fought Daredevil and, realizing they're both considered second stringers, decided for it to be Matt. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: After Rosalind Sharpe decides that PR matters to her more than Foggy, her own son, and thus refuses to even let Matt use the firm's resources to help defend him, Matt decides to quit. Naturally, even after he's cleared, Foggy wants nothing to do with Sharpe again after she abandoned him, so he and Matt decide to restart "Nelson and Murdock". | |

Despair Event Horizon | |
| Guardian Devil (Comic Book) / int_dda99fa8 | comment |
Despair Event Horizon: Mysterio is dying and just wants to show everyone he's not a joke, yet Matt keeps brushing off his attempts and lists off why his plans are just rehashes. Break him by driving him mad? Kingpin already did that. Mess with him spiritually? Armageddon already did that with the X-Men. And at the end of it, Mysterio just says 'I guess I'll rip off Kraven now' and shoots himself in the head. One of the saddest lines from him was directed at Matt which was "If people think I'm a C-List villain. Might as well take down a C-List Spider-Man." | |

False Prophet: Not a deliberate version on the part of the individual in question, but Matt spends most of Guardian Devil trying to establish if a baby really is the second coming of Christ or the Antichrist, eventually turning to Doctor Strange for a definite answer. | |
