Marvel's Daredevil: 10 Iconic Comic Book Moments We Still Need To See

Set in the same world as the charming High School super-heroics of Spider-Man, the bizarre adventures of Ant-Man, and the intergalactic crusades of The Guardians Of The Galaxy, Daredevil makes for a far more grounded adventure in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Dealing with religion, vigilante justice and organised crime, Daredevil was the first look at the seedy underbelly of a world that until then we had only seen from atop the squeaky clean heights of Avengers Tower.

Marvel's Daredevil is fast approaching its third season, and what has been revealed so far makes it clear that inspiration will be taken from the acclaimed 'Born Again' storyline, alongside another great run, Guardian Devil, but there are plenty more stories and to adapt.

Sure, we've seen the prototype black suit and origins of Matt and Elektra's relationship as lifted from the pages of 'The Man Without Fear', as well as the Season 2 episode adapting the classic 'Welcome back, Frank' Punisher story. Perhaps some of Daredevils finest comic moments, but a mere handful out of dozens of iconic parts of the Man without Fear's history more than deserve the small-screen treatment.

Two of Marvel Comics’ better known street-level heroes, Matt Murdock and Peter Parker have shared a mutual respect and friendship for one another ever since Daredevil's very first issue, each dealing their own brand of justice to thugs, drug dealers, and a smorgasbord of other low rung crooks.

Matt and Peter have worked together numerous times over the years, perhaps the most interesting of which being in the pages of the Marvel Knights one-shot Spider-Man & Daredevil, in which Matt narrates a team-up between the two as they seek and rescue a kidnapped child. With the story merely serving as a framing device for Matt to reflect on his respect for, problems with, and ultimately the friendship he shares with Peter.

One of Marvel’s most recurring and endearing team-ups, having Peter team up with Matt and seeing the contrast between crimefighting styles would make for a more lighthearted, introspective arc to be found in a future series of Daredevil (or future instalment in the Spider-Man film series). Unfortunately, the likelihood of Marvel putting the hero of a gritty, mature TV show alongside their most childlike and whimsical is pretty low, making it seem like this on-screen pairing will remain wishful thinking for the foreseeable future.
