So, we're all in agreement. Daredevil is the best comicbook to tv translation yet.
No that's still The Walking Dead, and it's not even close Imho.
But is Daredevil the best superhero rendition on Tv? Quite possibly. I will be able to give a more definitive answer once I've finished the season. I have 3 episodes left. But I can safely say the show is pretty Epic.
Now they've announced another DD series after The Defenders, I'm guessing that following on from the success of this one, there's probably going to be a Punisher series in 'Wave 2' of Netflix.
Especially as a) tone wise it fits very well and b) there was that Punisher skull on the wall during episode 6.
It fits pretty well too, as Kevin Fiege has said that 'currently' in the MCU there is a Spider-Man running around but we haven't seen yet, so it works out that there might be a Punisher about who we haven't witnessed yet either.

Looking forward to IF, LC and DD season 2.
I don't follow Marvel street levellers besides DD, Punisher and SpiderMan, so very limited knowledge/exposure to them.
If they do make a Punisher series, it could frequently mesh with DD, much like Flash and Arrow crossover a lot.
Given the separate networks/publishers, is there any chance that MAOS characters/locales will mix with them?
I don't know who the martial arts guy Stick was reporting to is, but could that relate to the place beyond China that Skye was in?

GOD I hope not.
Daredevil's been an Awesome show in it's own world on the streets. Last thing it needs is for Fitz and Simmons to show up.
I think keep their world to the Netflix one, with the possibility of any of them showing up in a Marvel movie at some point.

Not the good one.Hell, it retained very little of the original story and nothing of his PERSONALITY which is what I commented on.
No one just starts off as a devious, calculating mobster. This first season of Daredevil is Wilson Fisk developing into that persona. He thinks he's the good guy throughout the show and only realizes he's the villain in the last episode.

Instead of cold and calculating mob-boss we got this fat retarded baby act.
B) Fat retarded baby? Kingpin is supposed to look somewhat fat...ever read the comic? He also was most certainly not retarded; he was quite intelligent. And he had issues he had to deal with from childhood, like most villains.

The things he did (taking out Nobu with Daredevil, killing the russians....etc (making sure he stayed on Lady Ghao's goodside because something was "off" about her....B) Fat retarded baby?

A) A cold man doesn't flip out and start tossing tables or screaming that someone "embarrassed" him. Classic fatkid rage. This was as far from the Miller Kingpin as we could get. This wasn't even Nocenti Kingpin...
b) Yeah, but in the comics they frame him in a way that makes him look imposing.
I agree with firefly though, he hasn't come into his kingpin-persona yet. This was more Wilson Fisk than Kingpin.
