Guys, I've enjoyed both seasons of DD but I haven't watched Jessica Jones or Flash. I have Netflix streaming.

Which of those should I check out first?

Maybe they could have set it up better in the series, but Karen Page is Matt's main girl in the comics.

JJ. it's only 13 episodes to catch up on, and if you liked DD you'll like JJ probably more. Might be a little boring at first, but stick with it b/c it gets awesome.

Flash is 23 episodes to a season if i remember correctly.
You'd have about 35 episodes to watch to catch up on Flash. Although i love The Flash, personally.

People seems to forget that characters like Thor and Daredevil are on completely different levels in the Marvel universe.



well of course he isn't with Thor. There aren't many on his level. hell Cap and Iron Man aren't on his level.

What's the difference between Daredevil and Spiderman? Popularity? They are both street level heros, but Spiderman's popularity makes him appear to be more than that.

the Daredevil we saw at the end of season 2 seems to be getting pretty fricken powerful as a superhero. It's been said his radar sense or whatever you call it is better than Spiderman's spidey sense.

Spider-Man stopped being street level a long time ago. He fights super villains and goes on adventures with various super hero teams. Cage, DD, Punisher generally do not (Cage has done some Avengers stuff but even then the writers tried to keep his stuff small level).

I still need to finish JJ but I am pumped for this show.

I know that, but his skill level isn't that much better, if at all, than Daredevils.
Spiderman is extremely popular, which is why he started going on adventures and fighting super villains.

This where this thread is going to go deep into Nerd Land...

Spider-Man physical abilities (strength,speed,quickness,leaping abilitiy) are superior to DD.

Spider-Man has always been an overpowered street level hero, which is why he has been promoted to The Avengers.

They are.
DD's radar sense, combat skills, and fighting smarts are superior to Spiderman.

Spiderman would wipe the floor with him, i know.

What makes Black Widow and Hawkeye better than Daredevil?

In the comics?DD famously can't be on teams because there are too many heartbeats to track.

Widow and Hawkeye have better weapons training.

Got up through episode 10 last night, about to knock out the last 3 episodes

The end of episode 10 with the kids standing up as brainwashed zombies or whatever was legit fricking creepy.

In the middle of Episode 12 and blondie is talking to Castle's former CO. I'm thinking this guy is the real bad guy. He just seems too good, and he did serve with Castle in Afghanistan, where just a little heroin is produced.

eta: As he just pulled a gun on her, I'm guessing my intuition was correct.

Just finished the season, it every bit lived up to the hype from season 1. A few thoughts

Stairwell fight scene in episode 3. Holy shite. Somehow they topped the hallway fight scene in season 1.

Punisher and Elecktra were awesome. Every interaction between Daredevil and Punisher was amazing.

It was also cool to see Fisk gaining his power back in prison. It obviously won't be too long before he is back out on the streets again and a new problem for Matt. And his scene with Matt in the prison was awesome.

I almost felt as though they crammed too much into this season. I think it worked in the end, but I feel like they easily could have had a whole season dedicated to the Punisher and Locksmith, and then another season dedicated to Elecktra and the Hand. But as some in here have noted the fact that it all happens at the same time is what really makes Matt human and we see how he struggles to keep it all together when shite hits the fan. And on top of that, there is a lot to look forward to in season 3 as we still don't know much about the Hand and whatever really happened with Frank's mission and why his CO is trying to take him down.

All in all it was fantastic and now we have to wait a whole year for more

Oh and I'm still hoping for a Daredevil/Jessica Jones crossover in the future

I was hoping for a bullseye cameo type cliffhanger at the end if this season. He is daredevil's main villian.

I agree the story felt crammed at times but I still enjoyed it.

I did find it strange that Karen didn't want Matt to explain who the old blind guy in his apartment was or why there was a chick in his bed. I get that Matt wouldn't want to tell her the truth but I also found it odd that he didn't at least try and explain the situation.

It just seemed odd that they never mentioned it after Karen walked in on that situation. Especially since they work together.

It actually makes sense if you think about it. She's a woman who is only going to focus on one part and fixate on the worst possible scenario (assume he is seeing someone else).

She ignores the fact that the chick is almost dead and that there is an old arse blind guy just standing around.

That is exactly how I saw it.
The fact that she never brought it up after it happen and acted like a bitch every time she saw him after further proves that.
