What You Need To Know About The Netflix Daredevil

Are you pumped for the Daredevil Netflix exclusive series? Want to learn more about the series or who Daredevil is? Read this article!

The Man Without Fear

The upcoming Daredevil series will be based off of Frank Miller's run on Daredevil. From the looks of it, it will be based off of his issues that were collected in a graphical novel called "The Man Without Fear". In this volume it elaborates on Matt Murdock's life before he was a crime-fighter and how he became one.

This is where he meets Elektra for the first time in his life, not the first time she shows up in the series, and where he first meets Foggy Nelson (his best friend and law partner), also not the first time he appears in the series. This is also where Murdock wears his first costume.

Its been revealed through images posted online that Murdock will indeed first wear this black costume.

This should be a real treat for viewers and fans. When Murdock dons this costume he is ruthless. He is seeking a kidnapped little girl. She was abducted by some criminals, but those fools didn't know she was Murdock's friend.

What to Expect?

Well if this series will follow the graphic novel then its likely Murdock will not don the Yellow and Red or the Red costume until the end of the series. There is no confirmation of this, but since it looks like this is the book the series will be based on then its very likely. This series, however, will introduce most of the main Daredevil characters in a way that will make them viewer-friendly.

As the photos I posted above would suggest, there will be a great deal of action in this series. A lot of STREET JUSTICE! as I like to call it, which is just the merciless beating of criminals.

What to read and what's next

If you want to have an insight on what's going to happen in the series read The Man Without Fear. That's where I would say to begin with all of this. Even if you want to wait for the series and are interested in Daredevil after you watch the series then this is still a great place to start. Frank Miller's whole run on Daredevil is pretty fantastic. Hopefully since Deborah Ann Woll was cast as Karen Page we'll see the groundwork that will eventually lead to Frank Miller's masterpiece on the Daredevil title, a book/collection called "Born Again".

Born Again is what I believe to be the greatest piece of work Frank Miller ever produced. Everyone loves his Batman work, but Born Again is on a whole other level. Kingpin discovers the identity of Daredevil through a source that can be traced back to Karen Page, Murdock's ex-girlfriend. Kingpin begins to systematically destroy Murdock's life in ways that seemed unimaginable to the Hell's Kitchen hero.

In the effort to not give any more details of what transpires in the book, I will just recommend you read this and see what becomes of the hero. It truly is Miller's greatest work and worth reading even if you're not interested in the Netflix series. Both The Man Without Fear and Born Again are amazing! Both are worth a read and I can only hope the series goes the way of Born Again. I wanna see Nuke on my TV!
