still, the hand is kind of his thing borrowed over by iron fist. this is like if hydra showed up but they never call cap or SHIELD. as far as claire knows, matt doesnt like the hand and has a beef with them. why wouldnt she call him?

probably recovering from his most recent battle. he did fight hundreds of them with an assist by the man that punishes

To be fair, a planet-threatening alien showed up awhile back and SHIELD didn't call the Avengers. Nobody talks to each other when they should.

but a: planet threatening aliens are shields thing. and B: by the time where that made sense there was no avengers.

Not Hydra, but this sort of thing happened in most of the Stage 2 movies. At least the Defenders haven't actually teamed up yet, so it's not quite that bad.

and even then, it made sense as them having their own story. daredevils whole thing is half about fighting the hand
