One of our favorite TV shows last year was Daredevil: Born Again, Marvel’s revival of the hugely popular series in the Netflix Defenders universe. Who could resist the magical combination of Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock/Daredevil and Vincent D’Onofrio as his nemesis, crime lord Wilson Fisk/Kingpin? The series quickly earned critical raves and a second season. And Marvel has released a short trailer in advance of the S2 premiere later this month.

But that creative choice cleared the decks to place the focus squarely on Matt’s and Fisk’s parallel arcs. Matt decided to focus on his legal work while Fisk was elected mayor of New York City, intent on leaving his criminal life behind.
