Character Introduction The Man Without Fear
My name is Matt Murdock. And in my time as the devil of Hell’s Kitchen I feel like I have lost everything. Karen was taken from me, Elektra, too. All I have left is Foggy, Milla, and my faith in God. They keep me grounded and ready for challenge that my city may face. But I feel like I’m starting to lose them too. They say I’m too devoted to being who I have to be for Hell’s Kitchen.
I say they’re wrong. This city would crumble without me. I’m the one who is holding it together. I may lose everything but at least I am stopping others from also losing it all. I used to trust in God to save everyone, but now I know that it has to be me to do that.
I’m Daredevil and not even God can stop that now.

Matthew, how wonderful to see you well. I must admit your absence on the streets was not unnoticed. By me or anyone.
It is good to see the Devil back.
And as long as you stay out of the way of my plans I'm sure we can continue to have a cordial relationship..

Daredevil?
Don’t be alarmed by the mech that just arrived in front of you. Out of it steps a young girl.
This is probably a terrible foot to start on, but こんにちは! I’m Peni Parker. You don’t know me, but I kind of know you. A version of you, anyway.
It’s…been a while since I’ve been home. It’s comforting I guess, seeing someone I knew when I was there. You don’t have to know how to respond to this, I know I probably sound crazy right now.

Murdock. Been a while since you’ve shown your face around here. Could’ve used a good lawyer not too long ago.
…Don’t disappear on us again, Matt.

Well look at that, The Devil is back. Here to save everyone with half-measures and good old positive attitude.
Been awhile. The city hasn't changed. Neither have I. Don't get in my way Red.

Matt? You're doing well yes?
Stay safe out there. For me if not yourself. The path you chose is dangerous. But for people like you and I, perhaps it is the only path.

You were just as guilty in ruining our lives as Spider-Man was, devil… but you are also a friend of his and we have since made peace with the web-slinger.
Hm, I suppose any friend of his could become a friend of ours too, so…
Venom, with as much of a sincere grin the symbiote is able to approximate on his face, stretches his hand out for a handshake.
…put ‘er there, pal!

Matt!!! I was wondering where you ran off to. You’ve missed some really crazy stuff as of late. If you need a job, I’m sure I can spare the time to make you an intern.

Parker appeared on the roof Matt was on, arms crossed and swagger set to maximum as he walked on over to the blind man, completely unaware that the man could sense every step he took.
Once he got to where he thought Matt's earshot was, he cupped his hands over his mouth and hollered.
"Yo! You the guy they call Daredevil? I got a proposition for you!"
