Being that this film is no longer associated to the Mark Steven Johnson film from 2003 with Fox, we have a good ol'fashioned reboot on our hands. So, what run should we start off with? With Slade attached, we were going to get Frank Miller's Born Again, which remains the definitive Daredevil tale of this day. It's spectacularly written, illustrated, and executed and I couldn't recommend it more to a comic lover. And I'm ecstatic that it hasn't been brought to screen yet. The issue with putting a story like Born Again up is that it requires tons and tons of back story to be fully effective. It's the tale of Daredevil's identity being put into his mortal enemy's hands by Karen Page, his ex-girlfriend and love of his life. While we saw The Kingpin in the 2003 film (played by the late Michael Clarke Duncan), Karen was practically no where to be found (admittedly, she is in the director's cut of the film for about two minutes). Born Again is a conclusion, not a starting point. So, I'd recommend Miller's The Man Without Fear run, obviously, minus the Elektra subplot (Marvel Studios does not own her character). Miller's run, or they could take the film in a completely new direction, giving it a Daredevil: Noir feel from the 1930s or take Carnahan's direction as the 1970s upbringing, using TMWF as its crux. Other great story-lines could include Daredevil: Redemption, which would be a legal drama before an action film, or adapting Mark Waid's current run with an origin story. Steer clear from Born Again for a while. It's too similar to The Dark Knight Rises and wouldn't make any sense to start off. Of course, you could also go with my full-length feature script. I'm quite proud of it.
