Our Daredevil Week countdown has arrived at its destination, with Marvel’s new Daredevil series now available to stream on Netflix.

(My own viewing will wait for tomorrow morning, a short delay that feels almost interminable right now.) We’ve already thrown some X-coverage at you this week. Sira did … Get hard
