Roscoe Sweeney
Roscoe Sweeney, known as 'the Fixer,' is the crooked fight promoter who ordered the murder of boxer Battlin' Jack Murdock after Jack refused to throw a fight — an act that set Matt Murdock on his path to becoming Daredevil.
Roscoe Sweeney stepped onto the Marvel stage in the very first issue of Daredevil in 1964 — a Silver Age debut as auspicious as they come, conjured by the legendary trio of Stan Lee, Bill Everett, and Jack Kirby. Over six decades his presence has lingered in the shadows of Hell's Kitchen, surfacing across Daredevil, Daredevil Annual, and the intimate spotlight of Daredevil: Battlin' Jack Murdock, keeping company with the likes of Matt Murdock, Foggy Nelson, and Battlin' Jack Murdock himself. With 16 catalog appearances and two recognized key issues to his name, Sweeney is precisely the kind of supporting figure that serious Daredevil collectors know to watch for — a character whose weight in the story far exceeds his page count, rooted in the very foundation of one of Marvel's most celebrated runs.
