Marvel's Daredevil



Marvel's Daredevil is a 2015 Netflix exclusive series starring Daredevil set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. After an excellent reception it was greenlit for a second season, which premiered in March 2016.

Season 1 opens with Nelson and Murdock taking the case of Karen Page, a secretary accessed of murder after being found covered in blood standing over a dead body while clutching a knife. Alerted by Nelson's childhood friend cop as a potential case for Nelson and Murdock. Sensing a Revealing Coverup Murdock decides that their new take the case (over Nelson's objections that Page can't afford to pay them). Murdock is correct and the three find themselves deep in a plot by organized crime.


 * Always Murder: Unusually for a rookie firm, Nelson and Murdock take nothing but murder cases and do rather well despite their inexperience.
 * Confessional: A recurring scene from the catholic Murdock.
 * Disability Superpower
 * Friends Rent Control: Justified for Murdock's apartment: there's a billboard right outside the window which deterred any renters, but Murdock, being blind, is not bothered by.
 * Multinational Team: Russians, Yakuza, Triad and more seemingly enemy criminal groups have allied for Kingpin's plans.
 * Not Wearing Tights: Most of the first season has Murdock fight crime in a hat pulled over his eyes.
 * Race Lift: Ben Urich. Weird as in the comics Ben is Those Two Guys with Robbie Robertson, who was always black and and the character here is closer to Robertson than Ulrich.
 * Revealing Coverup: A guard is blackmailed into trying to murder Page, which is suspicious enough
 * You Have 48 Hours: The holding limit version is invoked.
