Warning: This review contains complete spoilers for Daredevil: Born Again Episode 9!

The first season of Daredevil: Born Again was in relation to the quality of the roller coaster ride, but Boy ends with a high note. Matt Murdock and Wilson Fisk’s duels have finally collapsed and exploded to numerous devastating developments that fundamentally change the show of the show. Originally born again when a season followed with 18, but instead it was cut in two seasons, so it is no surprise that this final ends on a cliffhanger. But with New York City, now in Fisks Clutches and Daredevil with its most impossible challenge what a cliffhanger it is.

In an episode with several incredible highlights, my favorite must be the reunion of Daredevil and Punisher. There are two polar opposites, one of which shows its worst enemies mercy and the other ensures that the evils hit the cruelest end. And Frank Castle calls Matt Murdock to save Fisk’s life? Great. The apartment combat scene between the two heroes and the Task Force by Fisk is one of the most brutal that Marvel ever brought to the screen. After so many episodes of the structure, it was particularly satisfactory.

Karen Page, whose return is most welcome, helps to compensate for the crack between these two. Her intimate connection to Frank and Matt makes her a perfect person to reset tensions and to re -report her efforts to what is most important. Matt, who hears her heartbeat to intusele her true feelings, was also a very nice, very long touch.

Last episodeMurdock found that it was Vanessa who arranged that Nelson Nelson had killed after he came across the plans of the drugs for Red Hook. When you see how Vanessa Benjamin Poindexter takes away, just as her husband manipulated the last puzzle puzzle with the riddle, like her husband. The best thing about everything is that Bullseye is not only treated as a weapon for rent and is finally returned to the nuance that has made it such a fascinatingly tragic villain Back in season third.

FISK’s master plan to transform New York City into his personal city -state is the kind of bold super villain scheme that I can get into. It is a stupid plan comic book fans before, as Bane the same with Gotham City The dark knight rises – But this version feels like she has a foot in reality and makes it all the more scary when we see how Fisk is able to force his way to the ultimate power. I particularly enjoy how Fisk took his typical white suit when wearing public appearances. Mayor Fisk and the King of Crime are now one in the same, and he no longer tries to hide it.

In fact, Fisk is so confident in his position of total control and feels immune to consequences that he has no problem with taking the head of the rebellious commissioner And squeeze it like a melon. Gross! The again born showrunner Dario Scardapane had annoyed “There is a moment in this (show) that is just absolutely batshit”, and he wasn’t joking! This moment may fall very well than the most incredibly violent action that has ever been shown in the MCU. And I thought Matt broke the knee’s knee in episode five!

What a cliffhanger of this final ends.

When the episode has been completed in a poetic manner, it is difficult to imagine that Daredevil can ever hope to regain the city. Murdock always had the law on his side, but what should he do if Fisk can bend and corrupt the law so that everything he does is legal? That is the question we have when we are looking forward to the second season. However, I sincerely hope that Daredevil will recruit a few remarkable faces for his “army”. When he was watering how the city had opposed, rebelled and rebuilt without fear, it felt like it was leading to a great revelation. I had expected some of the defenders like Jessica Jones or Luke Cage or maybe even Spider-Man or the new Hawkeye, since New York City is also at home. But it was just a few police officers and allies, the same ones who just didn’t stop.

Other thoughts

As if there was not enough crazy great moments in this episode, the Punisher confronts the Task Force from Fisk and lets her know what he really thinks of co -opting his symbol. On the one hand, it is the key to heard of how Frank hears his disapproval by calling them a few clowns. But I wish he had gone further and really gone home why they fundamentally misunderstanding what this skull represents.
