When it started in 2015, the Netflix series Daredevil, based on the Marvel superhero character, became a breakout smash hit for the streaming service because of its darker, edgier, mature and violent storytelling despite being part of the family-suitable Marvel Cinematic Universe, inspiring more Netflix shows featuring street-level Marvel superheroes.
The first season of Daredevil made great work in setting up this not-as-epic corner of the wider MCU with some great world-building. It sold that while the characters and antagonists are not as mass-destructive and flashy as their film “cousinsâ€, they’re no slouches either. Here’s a list of those episodes, all premiering April 15, 2015.
