by

In the 4th episode of “Daredevil: Born Again“, it seems that Hunter Doohan’s character, Bastian, could be unmasked as the real villain, known as Muse. This enigmatic figure, a graffiti artist and serial killer, has been a mysterious presence since the series began. However, there are hints that the man concealed beneath the terrifying mask might have been inadvertently revealed in the latest episode.

Is Hunter Doohan’s Bastian behind Muse’s mask in Daredevil: Born Again?

In the fourth episode of Daredevil’s reboot series, “Born Again,” a chilling new adversary named Muse was introduced to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The climax of the episode revealed him, clad in his recognizable mask, performing a gruesome act near train tracks – draining blood from an unfortunate victim for use in his grotesque art pieces. Known for his terrifying techniques, he employs the blood of his victims to create disturbing masterpieces.

It was actually Hunter Doohan’s name appearing in the credits that piqued fans’ curiosity. Interestingly, Doohan, who portrays Bastian in Episode 2, was credited as a guest star in Episode 4 where Muse was showcased, even though his face wasn’t clearly seen on screen.

This has sparked a lot of discussion suggesting that Bastian and Muse might be the same character, an intrigue that Marvel Studios might have wanted to conceal. Given that Muse is one of the eeriest antagonists in the storyline, this revelation would certainly come as a surprise.

For those who may not know yet, in Episode 2, we meet Doohan’s character, Bastian, portrayed as a timid young man looking for assistance from Heather Glenn. Initially, his part seemed insignificant, but the credits for Episode 4 have sparked speculation that Bastian might actually be Muse disguised in another form.

In the world of comics, Muse serves as the villain, boasting supernatural abilities such as invisibility. This unique skill poses a significant challenge for Daredevil, as he primarily depends on his exceptional senses to combat crime. If it turns out that Bastian is indeed Muse in the series “Daredevil: Born Again,” future episodes could potentially highlight an intense confrontation between him and Matt Murdock.
