Can somebody please Marvel-magic Season 2 into existence?

Spoilers below for anyone who isn’t watching Daredevil: Born Again’s Season 1 finale with a Disney+ subscription.I can still recall the sting of learning that Netflix canceled Daredevil after Season 3, and the worry that Charlie Cox’s Matt Murdock and Vincent D’Onofrio’s Wilson Fisk may never grace the screen together again. Thankfully, no one could keep the vigilante and the Kingpin down for the count, and it’s rather incredible that we’re now here to (hopefully) celebrate the conclusion of Daredevil: Born Again’s solidified-through-reconfiguration first season.

Like many fans, I’ve enjoyed the mostly weekly episode drops, but having to wait a full week after seeing Matt become Pointdexter’s second target of the season has been a strain, especially without a hint of Jon Bernthal in the penultimate ep. So please join me as I live-blog Episode 9, "Straight to Hell,” with the hopes of seeing way more of Frank Castle here ahead of The Punisher’s eventual standalone special.(Image credit: Disney+)Note that while the article is live, posts appear in reverse-chronological order, and revert to chronological order when it is no longer live.
