Has anyone checked it out yet? Everything I've heard has been overwhelmingly positive so far, and then I saw this little tease for the evolution of DD's costume, and I'm thinking I may have to check this out myself:

 

 

What do folks think of Marvel's latest addition to their universe?

[BRM 220]

Literally just watching the 1st episode.

 

Best opening titles ive seen in a long time.

 

Already a darker tone than anything we've seen before in the Marvel universe but let's you know that it's very much part of that universe.

[BRM 220]

Final scene episode 2, enjoy it!

 

 

Definetly not one for your kids.

[DC 536]

And this is just the beginning on Netflix as we head to a massive Defenders team-up down the road.

[DC 536]

OK; I'm up to ep.8 and this has been amazingly good (and brutal).

Amazing series thus far. I'm on Episode 8 as well. Love who they have included already, can't wait to finish the season.

Binged them all in two days. I *love* Daredevil, my favourite character in any universe. Love the tone of this, love the little nods towards the 616 universe history, love the whole thing. Even the costume is explained with a modicum of sense..

 

And the casting? Oh my LORD the casting is perfect. Foggy IS Foggy from the comics!

 

It's made me go back and dig out some of the classic DD comics to read again.

 

Now, onto Powers... :P

Yep, this is great. I think I actually prefer this to Arrow at the moment.

[Guest pheadley]

watched up to the second episode, going to watch the 3rd now. enjoying it so far but a bit let down because my cuz said the first episode is the best pilot he ever seen and I didn't agree.

[DC 536]

Netflix have officially announced that Season 2 is a go.

Oooh, I wonder if we're gonna get actual Punisher, or whether the 2nd season will have an episode that references Frank's family being killed, and that's all we get about him for a while?

[DC 536]

The quotes from the showrunners pretty much confirm he's going to be The Punisher (as does the logo).

 

Perhaps his family died in the carnage of the explosions in the first series, or perhaps it was before the series began and Frank was injured for the duration and has now returned to, well, punish.
