"I wouldn't go that far." - ―Josie and Foggy Nelson[src]
In 2014, Josie worked behind the bar in her establishment, Josie's Bar, when Matt Murdock and Foggy Nelson entered; they were celebrating leaving Landman and Zack and deciding to create their own law firm, Nelson and Murdock. Nelson grabbed a napkin off her counter and drew an idea for a sign.[3]
Foggy and Karen's Night Out[]

"Thank you, Josie, but this is my employee for your information, and we are not on a date." - ―Josie and Foggy Nelson[src]
Josie served Foggy Nelson and Karen Page when they entered Josie's Bar. Nelson proudly told Page that they get to drink for free, but Josie told them that they definitely cannot. She then told Page that she could do better than Nelson.[1]
Helping Mourners[]
- "Hey, Josie, could you turn that up?"
- ―Matt Murdock to Josie[src]
Mourning the death of Elena Cardenas, Karen Page, Foggy Nelson, and Matt Murdock entered Josie's Bar. As they mourned, Wilson Fisk had a news conference on the television. Murdock asked Josie to turn the volume higher. Fisk talked about the loss of Cardenas and blamed the death on the man in the mask.[4]
Foggy Nelson Drinks Alone[]
Josie tended bar and waited tables as Foggy Nelson ordered a whole bottle of alcohol and drank alone. Karen Page entered Josie's Bar; seeing Nelson, Page reached behind the bar and got a glass to join him; Josie did not stop her.[5]
Serving Marci Stahl[]
- "You know that buffalo wouldn't make me a vodka martini? I had to settle for just vodka."
"Oh, yeah, she can be, um... You gotta ask nice." - ―Marci Stahl and Foggy Nelson[src]
Josie served Foggy Nelson and Marci Stahl as Nelson showed Stahl files containing information on Wilson Fisk to take him down. Stahl originally said that she would stay for five minutes, but Josie ended up serving them for a while.[6]
Heatwave[]
- "As sure as Josie's AC is busted."
"What AC?" - ―Foggy Nelson and Josie[src]
By late 2015, Josie's pipes began to have problems just as a major heat wave stormed into Hell's Kitchen. Her pipes had rust and mold, which Matt Murdock and Foggy Nelson knew about, but they kept coming. Eventually, her air conditioning broke as well. One night, Josie brought her water for Murdock, Nelson, and Karen Page, who were playing billiards.[2]
Post-Punisher Arrest[]
- "Why is it gray?"
"One of life's mysteries." - ―Foggy Nelson and Josie[src]
Following the capture of the mass murderer known as Punisher, Josie served Foggy Nelson, Matt Murdock, and Karen Page, who watched the news report about the arrest.[7]
The next day, she served Nelson, who talked to Marci Stahl the whole night, and put an olive into his drink. Noticing it was white, he asked why it looked the way it did, to which Josie merely replied that it was one of life's great mysteries.[8]
Closing a Tab[]
- "Hey, Josie. About that long-running Nelson-Murdock tab..."
"Yeah, yeah, I'll add it on."
"No. We're, uh... we're gonna settle up. Close us out, Josie. We're done here." - ―Foggy Nelson and Josie[src]
Josie served Foggy Nelson and Karen Page shortly after the Attack on the Hand. Nelson talked with Page before asking Josie about the long running tab he and Matt Murdock have. Josie told him she would add his drinks to it, but Nelson surprised her by announcing he is finally going to pay up. Josie then opened the cash register in response.[9]
Continued Patronage[]
New York City Earthquake[]
- "Been a long time, Josie. I can't tell you how much I miss this place."
"Oh, so Mr. Uptown misses our humble establishment." - ―Foggy Nelson and Josie[src]
In 2016, the day after a magnitude 4.6 earthquake, Foggy Nelson and Matt Murdock went to Josie's Bar and got drinks. Josie served them before she helped the other customers.[10]
Attack on Josie's Bar[]
In 2025, Josie hosted the retirement party of Cherry, an NYPD detective and friend of Nelson, Murdock & Page. When Cherry offered to buy the next round of drinks, Josie refused his money, pouring his drink herself and initiating a toast to his health. As she tended the bar, Foggy Nelson confided to Kirsten McDuffie that Josie kept an aged bottle of O'Melveny's behind the bar, which she then served to them.
Shortly after, however, the bar was attacked by Benjamin Poindexter, who shot Nelson and threw a smoke grenade into the bar before being intercepted by Daredevil. Josie fled as Daredevil dueled Poindexter. Although Poindexter was defeated, Nelson and ten others were killed in Poindexter's slaughter.[11]
Finishing the Last Round[]
- "O'Melveny's. Foggy... never finished his final round."
"Yeah, but he wasn't drinking O'Melveny's."
"Yeah. Fitting, 'cause he was the last customer to order." - ―Josie and Matt Murdock[src]
