Is Foggy Nelson Alive in Daredevil: Born Again? Social Media Tease Sparks Fan Theories
Marvel fans were left reeling when Daredevil: Born Again made a shocking move by killing off Foggy Nelson (Elden Henson) in the very first episode. But a new post from the official social media account may have just hinted at his resurrection.
Foggy Nelson’s “Death” and Its Impact
Foggy’s untimely demise sent shockwaves through the MCU. His absence led to:
- Karen Page moving to San Francisco
- Matt Murdock leaving Daredevil behind and starting a new firm with Kirsten McDuffie
- A growing mystery around Foggy’s true fate
Despite his death, his presence looms large over the series, and fans have long speculated whether his story is truly over.
Social Media Tease: Comic Cover Sparks Resurrection Theory
The Daredevil: Born Again Instagram account posted a set of classic Daredevil comic covers, one of which was from Daredevil #82 (1998). This particular issue is noteworthy because it featured Foggy faking his own death—allowing him to enter witness protection after Vanessa Fisk plotted revenge against Matt and Kingpin.
Could this be Marvel’s way of hinting at a similar storyline for the MCU Foggy?
Marvel’s Head of TV Already Teased Foggy’s Return
Marvel Studios’ Brad Winderbaum previously confirmed that Foggy Nelson will return in Season 2. At the time, many assumed this meant flashbacks, but this new clue suggests he might be alive in the present day.
If true, it would explain:
- Why Karen Page drastically changed her appearance (red wig spotted on set)—possibly part of witness protection.
- Why Foggy’s fate is still left uncertain, rather than being fully mourned.
Will Daredevil: Born Again Reunite the Trio?
The Murdock-Nelson-Page dynamic was the heart of Netflix’s Daredevil. Marvel’s decision to kill Foggy after six years of absence felt particularly cruel, but if this was part of a larger fake death arc, it could be a brilliant long-term payoff.
Bringing Foggy back wouldn’t just be fan service—it would be a faithful adaptation of a major Daredevil storyline while restoring one of the best character dynamics in the franchise.
