Description
Daredevil – Moral and Myth in Hell’s Kitchen
Justice, guilt and faith in Marvel’s darkest character
“What makes a hero? The will to fight – or the courage to doubt?”
Matt Murdock is not your average superhero. He is blind. He is a lawyer. And he is deeply broken.
As Daredevil, he wages war not only against crime in Hell’s Kitchen – but also against guilt, trauma, and moral collapse within himself.
This text-only analytical book offers a profound exploration of Daredevil: Born Again – Season 1 from a philosophical, psychological and ethical perspective.
No images. No distractions. Just insight.
