Definitely best comic-based TV show on at the moment, certainly caters for a slightly more mature audience.
Any idea when season 2 comes out?

Yeah this is a freaking great series. Only thing that bothered me is
, why does he cover his eyes with that "mask"? He is just giving away the fact he is blind, and the "mask" offers no additional protection. He should have just worn a hockey mask so no-one could punch him without breaking their hand! And they would have no clue he was actually blind. He could have also at least worn a stab vest, that would have saved him a lot of trouble.
They all have to start somewhere....look at Spidermans' first costume

It's nothing to do with complexity of the costume, it's just common sense. Especially after the first time he got stabbed, any rational person would have thought about some protection after that. And the "mask" thing is a dead giveaway that he can't see, the most straightforward and obvious mask anyone would choose would be a balaclava like Bruce Wayne did in Batman Begins. The added bonus is that none of his friends would think "That vigilante must be blind with that mask on...and my friend Matt is blind....hmmm"

Blind and also frequently injured
It would probably hinder his movement. Hence the suit that was custom made.

It's ridiculous how much he gets beaten up, and how many hits it takes him to down a bad guy. Personally I think he's a pretty rubbish superhero.
Arrow would kick his ass.

Just finished watching this as well. Really enjoyed it. Wish his new costume didn't look so lame though.

I'm not a big fan of comic book heroes; too cartoony as a rule. But I dipped into this and have gone all the way. It managed to stay just the right side of absolutely ridiculous to keep me onboard.
Batman without the trust fund. 7/10.

I watched all of Daredevil recently and am stunned by how awesome it is. That totally uncut, flowing fight scene from the first episode was enough for me to come back for more. The second season cannot come fast enough!

I wonder how many times Frank Castle will rub his head during season 2?
