Daredevil Born Again S2E1 The Northern Star

About this episode

The episode discusses the return of Daredevil Born Again with a focus on character developments and thematic elements.

We broke down Daredevil Born Again season 2 episode 1 "The Northern Star" — the Netflix-era grit is back. Charlie Cox's costume finally looks like Daredevil with the DD on the chest. Karen Page / Deborah Ann Woll is back, Heather Glenn is out. Matthew Lillard's Mr. Charles is stealing every scene. Bullseye returns, taking out Kingpin's agents. We get into the weapons smuggling conspiracy, the AVTF as political allegory, Heather Glenn's Muse trauma arc, Tony Dalton as Swordsman, and whether Vincent D'Onofrio is finally tamping down the Kingpin overacting.
