Superhero-based shows have taken television sets and laptops by storm with Marvel adding "Agent Carter", "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D" and now "Daredevil" to its existing roster of shows. What can audiences expect from Matt Murdock as Netflix gears to release the first season's 13 episodes on Friday?

Den Of Geek reports that fans won't be given a full-blown origin story of the superhero before getting them up-to-date on his present life. Instead, audiences are transported into the thick of things, making the origin story a sub-plot showcased in frequent flashbacks. There are ample fight sequences, some of the best Marvel has ever dished out on the small screen.

Daredevil solely relies on his enhanced senses to fight crime in Hell's Kitchen. Rather than showing fans his radar vision, as was seen in the Ben Affleck-starred movie of the same name, viewers will only see audio cues while he fights bad guys. The show is distinctly darker than its counterpart, "Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D", and doesn't follow its weekly villain format. Instead, there is only one villain throughout the first season called Kingpin aka Wilson Fisk and fans aren't treated to the bald antagonist till many episodes have been binge-watched.

In fact, the first five episodes reviewed by Den Of Geek, report that Daredevil deals with Kingpin's right hand man known as Wesley. But fight sequences won't be the only aspect of the show comic book aficionados need to look forward to, because Matt Murdock will also be at the center of ample courtroom drama. Not only that, but a possible "Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D" crossover may take place since the two share the same executive producer, Jeph Loeb.

On Twitter, the official account of Daredevil dropped a hint of the crossover that featured a posted of Matt Murdock's father, Jack, fighting Carl Crusher Creel. CrossMap notes that Creel was the Absorbing Man who is a Hydra assassin and former boxer. In S.H.I.E.L.D's season two premiere, he absorbed the obelisk's power and wasn't killed by it. Could this storyline and connection usher in a crossover episode?
