My Marvelous Year Three: 1964 pt 1

Read for daredevil vs Killgrave, the Matt, Foggy, Karen (paternalistic) love triangle.

Killgrave!

Now I know where this character comes from. Familiar with him from season one of Jessica Jones. The purple man isn't quite as powerful in this issue as he was there. I don't think Stan Lee had fleshed him out thoroughly in this early introduction.

The persuasive one is as unnerving as he is in the show. Daredevil is immune, mostly, to his speech. Of course, no one else is. Daredevil has "gadgets", which I think are too easy. This isn't the modern era Daredevil we are talking about. This is "utility belt Silver Age" Daredevil, so he has a concealed microphone and a plastic wrap that can be launched from his cane. Eh.

Matt has feelings for Karen. Karen has feelings for Matt. Foggy has feelings for Karen. Matt knows Foggy has feelings for Karen. Quite the love triangle.

Il cattivo è l'Uomo Porpora, potente manipolatore mentale, che è mio padre nello spirito perché, al momento dell'arresto chiede agli agenti di andarci piano perché non sopporta troppo contatto fisico. Il suo difensore d'ufficio (almeno, per il breve tempo pre-evasione) è ovviamente Matt Murdock, immune al controllo mentale.
L'Uomo Porpora ingaggia degli scagnozzi e svela il suo piano per conquistare il mondo!
Dardevil sconfigge l'Uomo Porpora dopo che scopre che il suo potere deriva dalla sua pelle, quindi lo copre con un lenzuolo per neutralizzarlo.
Questa storia mi è piaciuta più della precedente, sicuramente merito del cattivo carismatico e interessante.

Πρώτη εμφάνιση του Purple Man ή Killgrave, όπως τον γνωρίσαμε απ' τη σειρά της Jessica Jones. Οι δυνάμεις του είναι ίδιες με του τηλεοπτικού ήρωα, αλλά σε μικρότερη κλίμακα.

Η κίτρινο-μαύρο-κόκκινη στολή του Daredevil είναι λίγο γελοία σε σχέση με την κλασική κόκκινη. Και ο τρόπος που νίκησε τον Killgrave με ένα ειδικό χαρτί είναι λίγο εύκολος και πρόχειρο φτιαγμένος. Κατά τα άλλα το τεύχος αυτό βασίζεται περισσότερο στο στρατηγικό μυαλό του Daredevils παρά στην ωμή δράση.

Killgrave - the Purple Man (PM)! All he has to do is say what he wants you to do and you must obey! DD is the only person who can resist his power of suggestion - so PM decides to eliminate DD! But how does PM decide to do it? By turning a crowd and a gym full of 'body builders' against DD! Here is some advice PM: find the Hulk (H), Namor (N), the Thing (T) and Spider-Man and tell them to take DD out! Right!? Still a fun book!

Here are the pros:
- Kilgrave is an interesting and good villain.

Here are the cons:
- The art is bad.

- The line “I guess I’m just a silly female”. What women in the world would say that? Learn to write female characters Stan.

Rating: 3/5.

Issues like this are what make the $1 True Believers comics so much fun to read....

[Comicswithmaddy · Rating 2 out of 5]

Hopefully the Purple Man becomes more threatening in the future. I also hate Silver Age Karen Page.

Rating: 2.5/5
