10 Most Inappropriate Daredevil Storylines Ever

9. Daredevil And Black Widow's Relationship

Daredevil Black Widow 2

While Daredevil and Black Widow's history together makes for a particularly interesting dynamic in modern comics, its origins are less exciting.

Daredevil and Black Widow's relationship is... weird. Matt takes an interest in Natasha after his relationship with initial love interest, Karen Page, goes south because of his superhero identity.

The whole thing ends up characterising Black Widow in some really uncharacteristic lights - such as her weeping away when Matt takes an interest in another superhero, or refusing to live with her partner, preferring instead to be homeless.

The relationship may suffer from 'dramatic comic obligation' syndrome, but that doesn't change the fact that they have what appears to be an incredibly volatile dynamic, so the fact it's often marketed as anything but is completely bizarre.

I like my comics like I like my coffee - in huge, unquestionably unhealthy doses.
