    Franklin "Foggy" Nelson is a comic book character in the Marvel Comics universe, part of the supporting cast of Daredevil (Matt Murdock); Foggy is Matt's best friend. The character was created by Stan Lee and Bill Everett.

    Once used only for comic relief, Foggy has developed into one of the strongest supporting characters in the Marvel Universe. He shares a very deep friendship with Matt Murdock, being both his sidekick and his protector. With his down-to-earth, everyman lifestyle, he acts as a contrast to his tormented superhero colleague.

    Foggy is always portrayed as a slightly obese man who obviously spends a lot of time behind a desk. However, he is almost as skilled a lawyer as Murdock and tried numerous cases which bear that out.

    Foggy was Matt Murdock's roommate while they were studying at Columbia Law School. Matt protected Foggy against bullies and helped him study. When Matt began dating Elektra Natchios, Foggy disapproved, because he thought she was dangerous (which turned out to be a correct assessment). After Elektra left the university, Matt and Foggy transferred to Harvard Law School. After graduating, Matt and Foggy opened up a private law practice. They hired a secretary, Karen Page, with whom both Matt and Foggy fell in love. Sadly, Karen's life would turn to tragedy years later.

    Several years later, Elektra was hired by the Kingpin to assassinate Foggy. However, upon confronting Foggy, he recognized her as "Matt's girl". Unable to kill Foggy after this, Elektra abandoned her assignment, which lead to her temporary death at the hands of Bullseye.

    Despite this and many other tragedies in Matt's life, Foggy has been a loyal and true friend. He recently was in a relationship with Liz Allan, but the villain Mysterio manipulated Foggy into having an affair with another woman and then killing her when she appeared to be a monster. This led Liz to break up with him.
