Unless you have been living under rock or simply do not care for the geek realm, you are well aware that the second season of Daredevil drops in a few weeks. To say that I am hyped to see it, would be quite the understatement. Marvel and Netflix have me hooked!
The season two trailer, which prominently features Frank Castle aka Punisher, is my favorite Marvel/ Netflix trailer to-date. I like the trailer so much that I may actually buy the children’s book “One Batch, Two Batch” for my youngest child.
All kidding aside, Marvel and Netflix are definitely onto something. Daredevil’s Season I set the streaming video medium on fire in early 2015. Jessica Jones continued to fan the flame later in the year, while adding the formidable Luke Cage to the fray. Now we get to see this guy and this lady featured next month!
All of these developments have me thinking. Who would be the next, best character for Marvel to feature via Netflix?
My first and only reaction is the world’s most famous Daywalker, Blade. Since the time that he, the Ghost Rider and the Punisher were reacquired by Marvel in the past few years, I always felt that Blade’s dark, tormented and violent world in addition to his New York City setting made him a natural fit for Netflix. As an added bonus, his “Netflix inclusion” would help erase the stain that Blade Trinity left on my brain.
And based on the results my recent Twitter poll and this YouTube clip, I am not alone in my sentiments.
I really hope that someone at Marvel and Netflix hears my plea and ‘gifts’ us with a Blade Netflix series in 2017!
