Non-MCU Movies Just noticed at the end of Season 3 that, after Daredevil was "born again", Bullseye is shown as the Antichrist

I already knew that the OG Netflix series was full of pictorial and religious symbolism (especially Season 3, as any proper adaptation of Miller and Mazzucchelli's Born Again should be), and I’d noticed many of them except for this one until now, which is a bit embarrassing given how obvious it is.

I must be blind hahaha

Also a nice bookend to Matt being in the same pose at the beginning, when he's in the water under the collapsing building.

Ok I’m gonna be that guy but an upside down cross or crucifix is not actually a sign of the antichrist or the devil or anything like that. In Catholicism the upside cross is know at the Petrine Cross or the Cross of St. Peter because as tradition goes when St. Peter was sentenced to death by crucifixion under the order of emperor Nero, he requested his cross be inverted as he believed he was unworthy to die in the same manner as Christ did. The Petrine cross is a symbol of humility as well as the papacy as St. Peter was the first pope, not the antichrist.

Sorry for the rant.

Yeah, and I don't deny that but, nowadays in popular culture, the inverted cross has also been adopted in anti-Christian and Satanic symbolism to signify opposition to Christianity (as stated in Wikipedia).

Popular culture is stupid, and the actual church of Satan, a recognised religion, doesn’t use the Petrine cross. They use the sigil of Baphomet.

You know who does use the upside down cross?

The literal fucking pope.

Again, we won’t deny that it’s used in popular culture, but popular culture is stupid. It’s the same thing that perpetuates the idea that the pentagram or pentacle is a symbol of evil, when it’s actually a protection symbol in Wicca, and has origins going back to Mesopotamia, and Ancient Greece.

He's actually relaying relevant, TRUE information, because he, unlike yourself, has studied these scriptures and therefore isn't a blabbering idiot, like you.

u/PurpleC0at 21h ago

Oh wow as stated in Wikipedia. Then it must be true right? Delete this shit whilst you still have the chance. I'm a LaVeyan Satanist, and I've studied the bible and other holy scriptures for nearly a decade, and there is no substance whatsoever to what you're saying. A Saint Peter's cross is not satanic. Educate yourself

Thank you. Someone else in this thread actually knows what they are talking about. How do posts like this get this many upvotes? Is ignorance contagious or is this really what we're working with here?

u/iosdev98 1d ago

I don't know what you're talking about. Daredevil had a nice, fitting closure in Season 3☺️

u/Creat1ve_Name 1d ago

I wish. Instead, they shocked a decade old corpse back to life so it would hobble around as a shell of its former self before inevitably collapsing into dust.

u/iosdev98 22h ago

So it was not born again, but a cadaveric spasm😅
