Plots(1)
The razor-thin line between redemption and retribution explodes with a vengeance in Marvel's Daredevil: The Complete Second Season. With Wilson Fisk behind bars, Matt thinks his efforts to bring order to Hell's Kitchen are succeeding - until chaos reignites with two new arrivals: Frank Castle (a.k.a. The Punisher), an anguished ex-soldier determined to visit bloody, irrevocable "justice" upon his adversaries, and Matt's volatile old flame Elektra Natchios. Meanwhile, a lethal, relentless source of ancient evil continues to amass power. Now, as both the stakes and the body count rise, Matt faces a lifealtering choice that forces him to confront what it truly means to be a hero. (Disney / Buena Vista)

Even the second season maintains the high quality. The absence of Wilson Fisk is noticeable, though. He is replaced by two new positive/negative characters, Elektra and the Punisher. Although the characters are well-written, they lack Fisk's charisma. What the show definitely doesn't lack is the ongoing character development, especially regarding Karen Page. As for the action scenes, I find the ones with the Punisher far more interesting than the fights with the army of dead/undead ninjas. I was also glad that Clancy Brown was cast in the series, even though he didn't last long. I'm looking forward to Season 3!

Another excellent season confirms Daredevil's high qualities. The Punisher and the prison scenes with the Kingpin were the biggest boost. The Punisher's trial was also amazing. Slightly let down by the alternation of villains, I'm more suited to one villain for the whole series, but the satisfaction is high.

Bolder, bigger and finally with the proper Daredevil costume. A typical second season of a successful first. Fortunately, it worked out thanks to the fantastic Punisher and the interesting Elektra, whose storylines are far more engaging than the Yakuza and their dark powers.

A paradoxical situation where the creators learned from a few mistakes of the previous series in order to make several new ones when solving them. The first season suffered somewhat the excessive footage of the thirteen episodes. The second, on the other hand, sometimes looks like the thirteen series are not enough and sometimes the episodes are too brief. The first season, despite its unnecessary length of several episodes, seemed tight and was based on the Matt/Fisk duality. The second season is much more dynamic, but there are separate story lines associated with Punisher/Elektra (he is supercool, but she is an incomparably more interesting character), where each character plays on his/her backyard, so it works much less tightly, especially in the second third, when almost six independent story lines are developing at the same time, and even though this time it strives for a certain duality (different strategies how to solve Matt/Frank's problems), this time it is not very stimulating. Last time it was about the great Fisk, but what was missing a bit were "street antagonists". Now it's almost exclusively about these characters, but there is no charismatic leader who does not get his hand dirty but rather controls everything from the shadows. The only thing that can be considered a flaw for both series is that if they have the main character at their disposal as a lawyer, then why the hell don't take advantage of it? Although they try somehow, but it does not do the job. Few other superheroes can offer such grateful story lines in their normal life. Otherwise, all good things have remained or increased in more than a small amount (elaborate characters where Matt is not "I'm a hypocritical Catholic who doesn't know what he wants", Murdock is not the most interesting character by far, black and white moral dilemmas, refined and full-contact "Raid like" fights if at all possible, are much more darker and more uncompromising than last time, and they did not hold back last time). For the third season, it would require a definitive return of Fisk (because when he is on the screen, the quality rises sharply; after all, it is no coincidence that this time the top scenes of the series are those where he is engaged), he would need a street bad guy to help (Bullseye?) and they should face an alliance of ambivalent heroes marked by a fragile internal tension. This would solve the problems of both series in one blow. In any case, I am more than happy with it.
