The Variety review mentioned that Daredevil used torture to get the information he needs. This worries me a little. Other than using a water tower as a 'Chinese water torture' device, I can't say I remember DD using torture as a method to get info. Anyone else care to chime in on this?

He did in Brubaker's run. Wasn't a huge fan of it. I think there are times Daredevil goes too far, but the best writers are careful to show that this isn't normal for him.

But if it fits the story, I'll wait until I see the story.

he didn't really use torture in bru's run though. He let Ox believe he was torturing him. Which I didn't like that much anyway, but still isn't the same as torture.

I still can't wait for the show, I just hope it's not too violent for the sake of violence.

Maybe he does it to begin with, before he's fully developed as a hero? I can't see Marvel turning him into the Punisher, despite the references Deknight made in the past. I trust they know what they're doing.

Another great review, this time from the comic heads over at Den of Geek

And Bloody Disgusting calls is the best comic book adaptation ever created

I think as Daredevil fans, all the waiting has paid off big time

I don't know if he has ever slowly, methodically tortured somebody, but breaking into Josie's bar and beating the crap out of people until somebody talks isn't exactly a miranda-rights interrogation.

Well, the rationalization is he was trying to save his wife and under sever mental stress from the fear gas. In other contexts, he might not have done the same thing.
