Jessica Plummer has lived her whole life in New York City, but she prefers to think of it as Metropolis. Her day job is in books, her side hustle is in books, and she writes books on the side (including a short story in Sword Stone Table from Vintage). She loves running, knitting, and thinking about superheroes, and knows an unnecessary amount of things about Donald Duck. Follow her on Twitter at @jess_plummer.
Well, Season 2 of Daredevil arrived last Friday, and I promptly crammed it into my eyes as fast as I could. It was a wild ride, but as usual, my shining light through it all was my boo Foggy Nelson. To show my appreciation, I have written a haiku for every episode about the man, the myth, the Foggy Bear.
(Spoilers below, natch!)
201: Bang
Franklin P. Nelson:
Pink shirt at a biker bar
A fashion badass

“You can have pants back
when you’re not bleeding, Matthew”
Foggy: tough but fair
203: New York’s Finest
“Don’t go running out
into a hail of bullets,
Karen – that’s my job”
204: Penny and Dime
“In my defense, I
wore a tasteful wacky tie
to this funeral”
205: Kinbaku
Just one shot of Fog
in a cheap flashback wig? I
want my money back
206: Regrets Only
Foggy did theater
in summer camp – delightful!
Let’s see those jazz hands
207: Semper Fidelis
Opening statement?
Aw yeah, nailed it, your honor
P.S. Screw you, Matt
208: Guilty as Sin
Objection, Francis!
Foggy’s saving your dumb life
Shut up your dumb mouth

Nelson and Murdock
is shutting its doors. I’M NOT
CRYING YOU’RE CRYING.

Seems the P stands for Percy
I can’t stop laughing

Poor injured Foggy
You deserve that teddy bear
And also that hooch

Franklin P. Nelson:
Really good at his job and
the heart of this show

Goodbye, sweet Foggy
See you in Jessica Jones
…or else, Mr. Loeb
