澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Daredevil: Born Again debuts on Disney Plus on March 4. The hotly-anticipated streaming series shares a name with one of the most iconic Daredevil stories of all time: Born Again, the 1986 arc written by comic book giant Frank Miller and drawn by David Mazzucchelli that ran in Daredevil #227-231, and which we placed at number one in our list of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:the best Daredevil comics.

The shared title does not indic🐲ate a direct adaptation from the comic books, however. For one thing, parts of the Born Again arc were already loosely adapted for Netflix's Daredevil season 3. With that said, the arc – arguably Miller and Mazzucchelli's most famous work on the Daredevil series – is still a must-read, and who knows, may yet have some relevance on the upcoming streaming s🐭how.

So, if you aren't familiar with the Born Again comics story or maybe you just need a refresher, read on for an explainer of Daredevil: Born Again. And if, after that, you're looking for more Marvel then check out our guide to all the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming Marvel movies and shows.

What happens in Daredevil: Born Again

The crux of Daredevil: Born Again is that Karen Page, former Nelson & Murdock secretary and Matt's ex-girlfriend, sells his civilian identity in exchange for a shot of heroin when she develops a drug addiction after her brief acting career fizzles out. Then Kingpin gets ahold of the informatioꦆn and (of course) uses it against him, effectively ruining Matt's life.

Born Again really kicks off with Karen's deal in Daredevil #227, relea✤sed in February 1986. After Kingpin learns Daredevil's civilian identity just a few pages later, he begins wielding his significant influence൲ to freeze Matt's bank accounts, foreclose on his apartment, and sully his name by paying off a police officer to testify that he saw Matt pay a witness to perjure himself. Concurrently, Matt's then-current girlfriend breaks up with him and starts dating his best friend and law partner, Foggy.

Through his own investigative work, Daredevil learns that the police officer in question 🥀is helping to frame him in exchange for necessary medical treatments for his son. Matt refuses to turn him in and can't figure out who's behind the blackmail. Matt's saved from a prison sentence thanks to Foggy's legal skills, but he's barred from practicing law, which strips him of the only way he has to help the residents of Hell's Kitchen outside of his Daredevil vigilantism.

Kingpin doesn't respond well to hearing his plan to have Matt/Daredevil imprisoned has gone awry, and he reacts brutally. He has Matt's apartment firebombed anꦕd gives the order to kill anyone else who knows Daredevil's true i⛄dentity – including Karen Page.

However, Karen escapes Kingpin's assassins and returns to New York to find Matt, who's homeless, paranoid, and becoming increasin🍨gly aggressive. Kingpin's subordinates follow his every move and constantly report back to their boss, chronicling Matt's mental and physical state. When Daredevil goes to Kingpin's office seeking revenge in issue #228, he loses the fight. Badly.

Now that Daredevil is literally in his clutches,✱ Kingpin has his b﷽ody drenched in whiskey, strapped into a stolen cab, and shoved into the East River. This is both to avoid investigation into Matt's death – after all, he's been houseless and struggling with his mental health ever since he was banned from practicing law, right? – and to rid himself of Daredevil once and for all.

Unfortunately for Kingpin, Matt doesn't die. He's nursed back to health by his estranged mother, a nun named Maggie, whom Matt remembers blessing him in his hospital room after the accident that caused his blindness. He only recalls h🌳er necklace, a golden cross, and when he point-blank asks Maggie in issue #230 if sheꦐ's his mother, she lies – which Matt only knows because he hears her heartbeat jump.

Aside from these two encounters, Matt hasn't seen his mother since he was a baby. She ꦉleft after her severe post-partum depression led her to try to hurt her son, and even after becoming a nun and getting her faculties back, she chose not to return to her family for their safety. Maggie's first comics appearance is in Daredevil #230, and her backstory is revealed in post-Born Again issues.

When Karen eventually arrives in New York💦 in issue #230, she contacts Foggy to ask about Matt's whereabouts 𓂃and Foggy insists on her staying with him when he realizes her traveling companion has been physically abusing her.

Meanwhile, Daily Bugle reporter Ben Urich is following the Kingpin story, which results in Matt shadowing him once he's recovered enough to do so. Kingpin believes Matt isꦏ in hiding, so he breaks a violent patient out of a mental hospital, dresses him up as Daredevil, and sends him to kill 💮Foggy in issue #231. Karen is caught in the crossfire and Matt saves her, then forgives her for revealing his identity, and the two get back together in issue #232 and even move in together while Matt picks up a job as a diner cook.

🉐But Kingpin isn't done yet. In issue #232, acquires the super-soldier Nuke (who was loosely adapted for season 2 of the Netfli🔥x Jessica Jones series) and orders him to launch a general assault on Hell's Kitchen, which Matt ends in his first reappearance as Daredevil since his apartment was firebombed way back in issue #227. He tries to kill both Nuke and Nuke's pilot, but the Avengers take Nuke into custody when he survives the fight.

At this point in Daredevil #233, Captain America does research into Nuke's background and finds out he's the only surviving test subject from multiple attempts to recreate Project: Rebirth, which is how Steve Rogers became a super-soldier during World War II. Nuke escapes custody and is ultimately killed by the military and🌼 dies before Daredevil can convince him to testify about Kingpin's machinations. Instead, one of the hitmen sent after Nuke names Kingpin, resulting in a wave of la♑wsuits.

Kingpꦆin avoids most of the charges, but his public image is tarnished... not forever, but for a while.

Daredevil: 𝔉Born Again is available as a collected editio💖n from Marvel Comics.
