After a wait that's felt longer than 12 months, Daredevil Season 2 finally arrives on Netflix this week. The first season of Netflix and Marvel's team-up series was an unqualified success; a hit with critics and viewers alike. There were doubts over whether or not it would work, with that Ben Affleck still living strong in the memory of most Marvel (and DC, given the Batfleck backlash) fans, while it remained to be seen just how the MCU - all brightly-coloured, CGI-filled, wise-cracking heroes - would translate into a more gritty and grounded TV series. They were already being put to bed after the first episode, and were destroyed by the end of the second. Daredevil was one of the best TV shows of 2015, and stands as one of the best products Marvel has put on a screen of any size. Such was the popularity that Netflix altered their plans, moving back the release dates for Luke Cage and Iron Fist to incorporate a second season for the Man Without Fear. That looks like being a very good decision. While Luke Cage, which will arrive in September, is exciting after his appearance in Jessica Jones, and Iron Fist is intriguing, the promise of more Daredevil is much more so. The stakes are being raised, there are some big new characters being introduced, and based on everything we know and have seen, it should at least match Season 1, if not manage to top it.
