At this point you’d probably think that I’ve had a enough of Marvel’s Daredevil after my marathon session ended sometime around midnight yesterday. Well, you’d be wrong! I’ve already started re-watching it, though this time I think I’l do so in a slightly more leisurely fashion, with an emphasis on tracking down any Easter eggs […]
Red costume, red costume, red costume. Did I mention that I REALLY want to see the red costume? Curse you, DeKnight! Curse you! And the worse thing is, I have already partially seen it–Curse you, Internet! Curse you to Hell!–but I can tell that they don’t do it justice. I thought that I should mention […]
Last episode, Melvin Potter went to work designing a costume for the Devil, because he told him that he would save whoever Fisk was threatening to keep him in thrall. And speaking of Fisk, he’s getting shit from all sides. Vanessa is poisoned in an attempt to get to him, and Karen Page ends up […]
In an attempt by an unseen enemy to get to Fisk, Vanessa Marianna (Ayelet Zurer) is injured. And it’s finally sinking into Murdock’s thick skull that he needs armor. This is the second episode that mentions it, so–considering that there are only two remaining in the first season–it’s highly likely that he’s either getting it in episode 12 or […]
Barely escaping Wilson Fisk with his life, the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen is discovered by Foggy Nelson (Elden Henson), as is his secret identity as Matt Murdock! It goes without saying that Foggy is a bit pissed because he believes that everything he knows about Matt–who he’s known since college–is a lie. While Madame Gao […]
A red ninja! It appears that Nobu (Peter Shinkoda) is becoming impatient with Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio), so Fisk offers him a deal: Get rid of the Devil that stalks Hell’s Kitchen, and he’ll get him what he wants. Which is a particular tenement, reasons unknown (though there may be a connection to Black Sky, whatever […]
This episode we meet Stick (Scott Glenn) in flashback–he’s the man who taught Matt Murdock/Daredevil his formidable fighting skills–and in the modern day. He’s in New York to attempt to enlist Matt’s aid in stopping Nobu (Peter Shinkoda), the right hand of Madame Gao (Wai Ching Ho) from bringing a mysterious shipment, known only as Black Sky, into […]
Hell’s Kitchen is burning as Fisk works to get the Russians out of the way, while Daredevil tries to save Vladmir Ranskahov (Nikolai Nikolaeff) from Wilson Fisk’s minions in the New York Police Department. Throughout the world of Daredevil he’s dealing with all sorts of corruption, especially the aforementioned NYPD. I’d say that this this […]
In an enclosed space, Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) can not only taste copper in the air, a useful talent if there’s someone is bleeding nearby, but can also hear the sound a person’s bones make when they are shifting when broke. That’s not a superpower in the same neighborhood as flight or super-strength, but it’s […]
This is the episode where Clare Temple (Rosario Dawson) suggests to Daredevil (Matt Murdock) that he needs some sort of body armor–since she’s once again patching him up after a night fighting crime though I feel reasonably certain the idea had occurred to him prior–which means that the red costume should be making an appearance soon. […]
