Case in point, Bullseye was out to play with them. It's like a messed up throuple in his head and he loves the challenge, the game and their 'relationship'. He literally got his ass kicked by them, even if he gave as good as he got, and its his idea of good times -- even if he wants to have the freedom to say when its over.

Given we're in the Seven Deadly Sins arc and how Lester's been used, I kind of think that he might be Pride if Fisk isn't. Statements like here, that he's better than the both of them put together and the HYPE speech he holds, indicate that it might not be too farfetched , but on the other hand earlier Matt has been able to 'see' the sins and they have been more confrontative with him as well as, so far, always in his friends and allies.
So far we鈥檝e had:
Elektra and Sloth
Ben Urich and Envy
She-Hulk and Gluttony
Wolverine and Lust
We have left:
Wrath
Pride
Greed
And I don't see Lester as Wrath or Greed as he's acted here, both though would fit Fisk.

Funny thing with Lester, he's a chatterbox but he loves challenging Daredevil to push him to his brink. Always make me. Always more.
Daredevil is his whetstone in his head, his challenge, his nemesis, and his existence makes him better. He loves it the hard way, and as in End of Days, he doesn't know how to exist without DD.

Daredevil #8 review
Spoilers
The extra sized anniversary issue was neither great nor bad from a story perspective, the little side stories weren't that memorable nor was the main that innovative either.
However, where it shines is characterisation. It feels like a return to a DD and cast that seem more vibrant and like themselves again after Zdarsky's run, which never prioritized that.
Personally, as a Bullseye fan, it's very much back to the basics approach, and I appreciate that. Lester is a happy-go-lucky murder gremlin playing with the daredevils with improvised weapons, constant chatter, and acrobatics while spreading mayhem. Him being that teasing and playful horror is what I missed from Zdarsky, who tried too hard to make him grimdark real and lost all personality.
The reveal that the Kingpin is behind Heat is unsurprising and basic, but it still works as a return to status quo, and Lester being his hype man fits. Lester has always wanted to be Fisk's #1 best boy (his words, not mine) assassin, and he does honestly admire Fisk.
The demonic possession angle takes backburner here, but everything hints that either or both Bulls and Fisk are under the influence as the illustration of flames in their eyes suggests. It's frankly not necessary as they would do this anyhow, but it's the only new aspect this story brings.
It was a fun read even if it didn't bring anything new to the table. I, for one, am happy to have a silly cat playing with his prey Bullseye back, enjoying every step of the way. I missed him.

DAREDEVIL ISSUE #8 (2023): Hypeman Bullseye
writer saladin ahmed | artist aaron kuder & jesus aburtov
...so I want all you armed to-the-teeth sick motherfuckers to take a good look around at all the other armed to-the-teeth sick motherfuckers here with you tonight. I mean look at these fucking numbers! You know, I'm a solo operator type, you tell me who you want dead, I throw something at 'em, they die, you pay me. But the man I'm about to introduce said something that made me think. He said, "when you throw a knife, a single man dies. But what if you could throw an army at your enemies?" That's why he called this muster, so all of you could see what the Heat has become. Not a gang. An army. Now, as an... entrepreneur, I've never been too big on bosses. Most of 'em can't do shit themselves. Most of 'em don't know shit about getting their hands dirty. But I know one man who ain't like that. He might wear nice suits and talk fancy, you mighta seen him looking all important on the TV. He knows how to run this city like nobody else. But deep down he was made to spill blood and get paid -- a man after my own fucking heart. If I'm the bullseye, he's that 60-point bed right above on the dartboard. The one most people can't hit. But I've done enough yammerin', time for you to hear from the general himself!
