Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for Daredevil Season 2, Episode 5.To say that Daredevil: Born Againhas had a rocky road to development would be a vast understatement. While fans had been clamoring for Charlie Coxto reprise his role as Matt Murdock ever since the original Netflix Daredevilwas cancelled, the initial version of Daredevil: Born Again had to be completely re-shot and reconfigured as a result of creative changes. Although the series has pulled off some of the best moments to ever feature the characters, Daredevil: Born Again has also taken major swings where the consequences aren’t fleshed out. The decision to kill off another major character isn’t just a disappointing instance of a story choice being made purely for the sake of shock value, but it's an indictment of the series’ troublesome depiction of its female characters.
