The Kingpin

キングピン（ウィルソン・フィスク）は、マーベル・コミックスが出版したアメリカンコミックに登場する架空のスーパーヴィランである。このキャラクターはスタン・リーとジョン・ロミータ・シニアによって生み出され、『アメイジング・スパイダーマン』#50（1967年7月号表記）で初登場した。

マーベル・ユニバースで最も恐れられ、最も強力な犯罪組織のボスの一人であり、通常はニューヨーク市の犯罪の首領の地位にある。当初はスパイダーマンの敵であったが、後にデアデビルの宿敵となり、パニッシャーの繰り返し現れる敵ともなった。キングピンの特徴的な外見は、異様なほど大柄な体格であり、その体重の大部分は筋肉から成る。普段は白い背広の上着を着て、物理的な戦闘が必要なときにはその先端をダイヤモンドやその他の硬い素材で覆うステッキを持つ。「キングピン」という名前は、マフィア用語における犯罪組織の首領の称号にちなんだものである。

能力 : While the Kingpin has no superhuman powers, he is incredibly strong and significantly more durable than the average human, possessing remarkable strength concealed by his extremely corpulent appearance. Most of his body mass is actually muscle that has been built to extraordinary size, much like a Super Heavyweight sumo wrestler, or some Olympic weightlifters and powerlifters but at greater strength levels. He has been shown to be strong enough to hurl large men across a room, rip limbs from people (demonstrated under a handshake),[volume & issue needed] crush a man's skull with his bare hands, and leave imprints in concrete walls after punching them. Defying his size, the Kingpin is a master of many forms of armed and unarmed combat, especially sumo wrestling. His signature move is the bear hug. He has fought Captain America to a standstill in hand-to-hand combat. His daily workout typically consists of simultaneously overcoming five or more trained martial artists with his bare hands; he stores his valuables in a safe which has no lock, only a door which is so heavy that only the Kingpin himself is strong enough to open it. He typically wears Kevlar armor under his clothing. Fisk sometimes carries a walking stick that conceals a laser beam weapon capable of firing a blast of concussive force sufficient for vaporizing a handgun (or a person's head) at close range; this is also known as his "obliterator cane". He typically wears an ornamental diamond stick-pin that conceals a chamber of highly compressed sleeping gas that is effective if sprayed at close range directly into his victim's face. Due to his wealth and intellectual industry, Kingpin could use far more advanced paraphernalia, but he prefers to use such things as a last resort. As Fisk became less Spider-Man's enemy and more Daredevil's, he became more of a naturalistic mafioso than a comic book criminal mastermind, and depended less on science fiction-like weaponry. The United States government is aware of the Kingpin's crimes but has never been able to prove his involvement. Members of the government have worked with him when necessary (even while describing him as "the devil"), such as when they needed his help to dispose of a Manhattan office building that the Beyonder turned into gold. The Kingpin's willpower is so great that he can resist even the Purple Man's mind control. He is intellectually formidable and is a master tactician and a highly skilled planner and organizer. He is self-educated to university graduate level in the field of political science. He is extremely skilled and knowledgeable in the organization and management of criminal and legal business operations.
