If you read part 1 of Daredevil's royalty, you'll know that I love Daredevil. I truly believe that this character is genius! Stan Lee really did great with this one. I mean, a blind super hero? How does he come up with this stuff?!
Although Daredevil is Marvel's "whipping boy", it makes for interesting stories. What I mean is that most Marvel characters deal with tons of tragedy because that's what makes things interesting. Spider-Man is to blame for the death of his beloved Uncle Ben and Gwen Stacy, Wolverine deals with the confusion of who he is. Daredevil, on the other hand, deals with a lot more. To start, Daredevil got "the batman treatment" and watched his father brutally get killed by mobsters. If you ask me, that is a great way to start a super hero career. Not to mention a starting tragedy for the man without fear.
It's obvious that Daredevil's life has been filled with tragedy but that doesn't mean we should love him any less. Daredevil's epic graphic novels is exactly what the Marvel Universe needs (and deserves).
Try to ignore the Daredevil film that was released in 2003. That movie reminds us why most comic book fans hate Hollywood. Now, there are a lot of good and some really good comic book movies, but sadly the majority is just awful *cough Batman & Robin cough*. Unfortunately, the Daredevil film starring Ben Afflac was not one of those good comic book movies. But there is still hope! This is because they are rebooting the series soon and hopefully it doesn't completely suck like the first one. Also hopefully, people will start to truly appreciate Daredevil the way he sees us....wait...COME BACK ON FRIDAY AS DAREDEVIL'S CULLINATION ROYALTY CONTINUES!
