Tennant's quest to break into the U.S shall never end!

That's some spectacular casting there, Lou.

David Tennant as Purple Man works. Mostly because of the powerset that comes with it:

Skilled manipulator
High-level intellect
Mind control
Regenerative healing factor

Basically Tennant's playing a purple time lord minus the whole timey wimey part.

I don't know much about Purple Man aside from an episode of the 90's X-Men animated series and a more recent EMH episode. So I'm looking forward to his appearance. Sure he'll probably be somewhat different from comics etc, but I'm still excited.

Well here's something interesting! Model/Actress Rachael Taylor has been cast as Patsy Walker/Hellcat. About the only thing I've seen her in is the first Bayformers film. :/

And here it is. The full on trailer for Daredevil.. who is apparantly Catholic.

I think Daredevil was always Catholic (Venom was too).

It's a neat idea, Murdock balancing what he knows is wrong (beating up people all night) and what he knows is right (fighting for the greater good).

I'm more excited for this than for Age of Ultron.

I can agree with this. I kinda know what I'm getting with Avengers, but don't with Daredevil.

[Leo656]

Yeah Daredevil's crisis of faith has always been a huge part of the character as far as I understand it. That's nothing new.

I won't be seeing this as I don't have Netflix, but I'll probably get the DVDs if/when they're out.

[TurtleTitan97]

That trailer was awesome! This is shaping up to be a great show.

[Spike Spiegel]

It seems very reminiscent of the "Man Without Fear" miniseries from the '90s...and I think Vincent D'Onofrio will make a great Kingpin.

Maybe we'll even get a good interpretation of Elektra this time around...

It was reported early on that this series would be influenced mainly by the Daredevil comics Frank Miller worked on.

If this show manages to get a second season, I hope we see Elektra and Bullseye show up.

Yeah, that series was I mentioned was written by Frank Miller (but drawn by John Romita Jr.) after the initial run. I was thinking that the costumes looked similar:

It's not what I expected, but I can dig it.

[The Stryker]

The head piece looks alittle weird. Can't quite put my finger on it.

I definitely don't like it as much as the Affleck revlon lipstick suit by that one look.
