A lot of Edmondson's run was "make the Punisher a symbol" and such, so the mask ties into that. More than just Frank Castle, fear the skull, that sort of thing.

Like when he rerouted the wires or whatever to make an entire skyscraper light up like a skull.

Hm...

I like it.

What if Bullseye kills Frank at the end

[Johndoey]

And flawed it was.

Holy fucking shit man.

Edit: Can't wait to see Elektra get killed.

 

[Ricky_R]

I'm halfway through the first season. It hurts not being able to see this.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

And flawed it was.

What is this? More importantly, what's wrong with this?

 

[ratcliffja]

What is this? More importantly, what's wrong with this?

Calling a black guy a thug has some very racist connotations.

 

[Kin5290]

What is this? More importantly, what's wrong with this?

White cop shoots fleeing black man in the back. She's supposed to be a good guy by the way.

Edmondson's run had promise but still sucked pretty hard. Among its many flaws is showing a white cop killing a black guy in cold blood and making her out to be the victim of injustice. (And also that her storyline gets completely disjointed from Frank's after around the midpoint, to the point that you wonder what she was doing there in the first place.)

Really I'm glad that Edmondson didn't use Rachel Cole-Alves for anything but a cross border taxi service. He probably would've found some way to wreck that character as well.

 

[Bleepey]

I didn't read that run, but is the mask bulletproof?

I always thought the skull was there both to intimidate and draw fire to his chest, where he's armored. I imagine making the same skull on your head defeats the purpose. He did that with face paint in one level of the viseogame too.

I haven't read the run but I am just giving a reason why he might wear a mask.

 

[BKatastrophe]

From EW's preview

They have that scene in the trailer and it is very vividly reminiscent of that.

Not surprised at all, but it bores the fuck out of me.

Well be happy when she gets murdered by Bullseye. Then we'll get this scene:

It'll be in S3, though.

So is this going to be one of those "I have to wait an entire season to see Punisher wearing a shirt with a skull on it" deals?

They'll skip the shirt and go straight for the full body suit.

The cop's dramatic emphasis on 'explode' keeps cracking me up.

That should be the OT subtitle. Hell's Kitchen Is About To Explode.

Daredevil S2 |OT| One Batch, Two Batch...

It could be Daredevil vs Punisher for the first half of the season, then Enter Elektra, then the finale involves all the above mentioned parties in a bloody free for all against The Hand.

Or OR Bullseye gets hired by Kingpin from prison and then we get the Elektra v. Bullseye that we all wanted.

Got to save something for Season 3! I think Kingpin needs to take the season out to do some plotting.

I'll accept Kingpin getting released at the end of the season, but I still think having Bullseye in this season would be a good idea. Either that or appear in the Punisher series first and then come over to Daredevil.

I say this because he's known as an antagonist for DD, Elektra, and Punisher. Having him show up this season, with all three, would be best.

Introduce him and build him up this season, and also hint at Kingpin's influence even behind bars. Then we can get into the bloodbath next season, with Kingpin being released and Bullseye as DD's nemesis

That was my logic.

I like this a lot, actually.

Okay okay, I'll accept the Hand as being the major antagonist for the second half. Then S3 can be the launchpad for Elektra's solo series, and S4 can adapt Bendis' run with the whole "Matt Murdock is Daredevil" storyline.

Bullseye sucks. I mean, he's written to be garbage, so it works, but damn do I hate him.

 

[n00bsauce87]

This is going to be an amazing season. I can't wait.

 

[Johndoey]

I love that Bullseye is an unrepentant mass murderer and rapist, but his greatest crime was killing an assassin Matt boned.

He then also stalks the shit out her when she comes back to life. And also he he kills Karen!

 

[Pachimari]

I just want Elektra to survive into Season 3. That's all I'm asking.

God I love Bullseye what a fucking dick he is. Plus he does most of this in his spare time.

 

[tomato shrub]

Not a fan of the punisher's actor, but I'm definitely awaiting the show's return. The suit in this trailer didn't seem to negatively stick out anymore, hopefully that effect also remains in the show.

 

[Fuu]

This is like the best scene in the trailer. He's all beat up!!! I'm so happy my favorite hero is being treated with respect by Marvel, Netflix and ABC.

I also liked Elektra's "Matthew". I really hope the next trailer is focused on Elektra.

I'm also happy Karen and Matt are together. My favorite couple in the whole MCU. But I can see Karen being killed off by the end. Who are Matt's other girlfriends? I never got past Elektra and Karen.

Other notable ones:

Typhoid Mary (psionic mutant with dissociative identity disorder.)

Black Widow (longtime friend of Matt, occasional lover.)

Milla Donovan (born blind woman that Matt married. It didn't work out in the end though.)

McDuffie is actually best girl.

Only because she's the last one not dead or insane. Or dead and insane.

Mary was a mess top to bottom.

You're right

I have no sympathy for Matt, anyone would've seen that and been like "nah breh, cut that".

 

[Pai Pai Master]

[Creamium]

Hah, that's amazing. I really need to read Waid's run at some point.

 

[richiek]

Hopefully we'll see this in the MCU:

 

[Pai Pai Master]

LOL I can't say I've ever come across that. What's the context?

 

[BKatastrophe]

I have no sympathy for Matt, anyone would've seen that and been like "nah breh, cut that".

The rule with guys is to never stick your dick in crazy.

Every guy sticks their dick in crazy, because they just have to know.

 

[Broken Joystick]

Spoiler

What's that?

The Russos also offered another tongue-in-cheek surprise, revealing a hidden vigilante hero of Captain America: The Winter Soldier. When Nick Fury is being attacked in the streets, he gets the moment he needs to escape when a yellow Penske truck slams into his attackers. Later, when Agent Sitwell is thrown into traffic, guess what hits him? Not just a Penske truck, but the Russos reveal, the very same Penske truck.

“The man who drives that truck,” Joe deadpans, joking that the driver is a candidate for a future Marvel One-Shot, “Is very highly trained. He thinks on his own terms. He’s got a plan and a very specific skill set.”

Spoiler

It's The Punisher.

Spoiler

Not really.

Why is this fine show not on blu ray yet? I need to add a physical copy to the rest of my marvel movies/shows

I would pay a stupid amount of money to have it on 4k bluray.

 

[number11]

Maybe it's the fast cuts, but the suit looks so much better (both the old and new suits).

 

[IrishNinja]

skipping born again before bendis' epic run? i mean, in the right setting elektra could prolly carry a solo, but i'd say the former is a mistake!

I just want Elektra to survive into Season 3. That's all I'm asking.

id honestly be surprised if she didn't...though it'd be a crazy season finale if anything

Only because she's the last one not dead or insane. Or dead and insane.

...yet.

god, she needs to just stay on the west coast
after Without Fear, i just realized matty must not care about his ladies' well being

Dolph Lundgren precedent too strong

 

[kurahador]

Same reason Daredevil doesn't wear his red costume and Kilgrave isn't purple

Spoiler

until last episode

.

 

[TheStruggler]

Why dont they have the punisher wearing his Skull shirt?

have a feeling in the beginning of the season he is just a fucked up guy wanting to kill anyone for revenge, near the end of the second season he finds more of a purpose and gives himself a name and symbol to fear, much like daredevil in the end of season 1.
