Marvel’s Daredevil S2:E7 – Semper Fidelis

We’re just beyond the half way mark in the Second Season of Marvel’s Daredevil, and the questions are coming fast and furious. What does District Attorney Reyes (Michelle Hurd) know about the Punisher that’s she not only willing to destroy Nelson And Murdock, but put her own reputation on the line for?

Marvel’s Daredevil S2:E5 – Kinbaku
