Ideas for Daredevil Season 2

WARNING THERE ARE SEASON ONE/COMIC BOOK SPOILERS IN THIS ARTICLE

Daredevil has been officially announced for a second season and now the question on everyone’s mind is what stories are they going to adapt for the next season? This is my own personal idea for season 2 of what kind of stories they could adapt to continue the story and set themselves up for a very big season 3.

The first thing I would personally do if I were the show runner is expand on the Yakuza and introduce their links to the Hand. The Hand are (for those of you that don’t know) an order of ninjas who were introduced to Daredevil by Frank Miller, the writer who a lot of this series work is based off.

We have already seen the Yakuza and the beginning of what look to be links with the hands, and I don’t think it would be much of a stretch at all to loosely adapt the story “Return of the King”.

dare-devil-return-of-the-kingIn “Return of the King” The Hand are responsible for murder of Vanessa, the Kingpin’s love which prompts him to return to New York City and team up with Daredevil to take down a common enemy. This story would have to be tweaked a lot in order to flow with this series especially seeing as the continuity of the comics could potentially lead to some difficulty.

I would have The Hand kidnap Vanessa and claim her to be dead (as she still could have more to do in Season 3) as revenge for the bad dealings the Kingpin had with the Yakuza in season 1. Word would get to the Kingpin prompting his escape from prison and siding with Daredevil to get revenge on the Hand.

Next would be to introduce the supporting characters and subplots. Elektra was mentioned as a girl that Matt Murdock was dating in a flashback of season 1, it’s been a long time since that day and since then she would have been training with Master Stick. I would want to introduce her to the plot as Daredevil’s love interest leading up to her death nearing the end of the season, of course after being murdered by Bullseye. Bullseye and Lady Bullseye would be my personal picks for the main antagonists of season 2, Lady Bullseye being a leader of the hand and Bullseye being her influence.

Elektra’s death would prompt Murdock into the final battle with The Hand alongside the Kingpin to finally take them down (with them now both understanding each other as both have ‘lost’ loves). Of course their victory ends with The Kingpin and Vanessa leaving with The Kingpin giving Daredevil his thanks, but that he still ruined his dream and that their truce is now over.

In the meantime, Karen Page’s PTSD should have hooked her onto heroin. This will lead into the third season which I would personally base off of “Born Again” which many consider to be the best Daredevil story ever told. I won’t spoil any more than that but read it. It’ll be worth it.

I'm a writer based somewhere in the UK, I like fiction, dinosaurs, martial arts, holding hands and long walks on the beach.

Even though trophy support for older games on PS Plus Premium isn’t always great, you can always count on Sony’s first-party games to have it.If you like collecting these digital trinkets, you’re in luck, because today’s big PlayStation Plus update includes two classic games that can now be used to earn Trophies.

Each trophy list for Ape Academy 2 and Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror includes the platinum cherry on top. You can look at their respective listings here and here if you’re interested.

The list for Dark Mirror appears to be quite simple—you can basically earn them all by finishing the game. The trophies in Ape Academy 2 appear to be a little more complicated, requiring you to complete particular objectives in card battles and advance to specified rankings. Nonetheless, it doesn’t seem too difficult, so we’re looking at a couple of quite simple platinums.

Ridge Racer: Type 4 is this month’s other premium classic game; sadly, it does not offer trophies. But it makes up for it by being a complete banger.

However, will you be obtaining some of these trophies with a nostalgic flavor?

This year, Sony produced some truly outstanding work, releasing four high-profile games on the PS5 and PS4 (not to mention the numerous PC ports). The earliest of these, Horizon Forbidden West, arrived in February of 2022 and got the year off to a strong start. One of Aloy’s sophomore journey’s greatest strengths, among the many other things we like about it, is its excellent art direction. The Art of Horizon Forbidden West allows you to now delve deeply into the game’s visuals.

This coffee table book, which was published by Dark Horse Books, contains 200 pages of concept art and developer commentary. It provides an inside look at the process used to develop engaging characters and settings, and Forbidden West is certainly not lacking in either.

Bloody hell, it took a while, but The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt’s long-awaited PS5 release date has been announced. The updated role-playing game will go on sale on December 14th, and CD Projekt Red reiterates that PS4 owners can get a free PS5 upgrade.

The “next-gen” game will have a physical edition at a later, as of yet unspecified time.

Though we still lack specific information about what the current-gen version will offer, don’t worry; it appears that all of our most pressing questions will be resolved soon. Next week, the developer says, will feature a livestream that will feature gameplay and more details. Hence, something to anticipate.

But in all honesty, we’re just relieved that this PS5 edition won’t be delayed any further. Will you play through The Witcher 3 again right before Christmas? Post your thoughts in the section below.
