Im guessing this is early, but Wilson Fisk seems incredibly underwhelming to me. Not a weakness on the part of Vince D'Onofrio by any means, but the way that Fisk is being written.

Wilson Fisk in the comics and Videogames is not a guy you cross, ever. He's got people stressing him out, talking shit to him, etc... I guess if this is an origin story, I buy it because he hasn't made it to full on "Kingpin" status yet. Im up to episode 9 of I think 13, so it may pick up.

Im really liking what Ive seen so far, when one episode ends, its tough to not immediately jump to the next one.
Yeah, I would definitely describe him as "young" this season. I think this season was meant as a crucible to forge both Daredevil and Kingpin. Which I think is awesome, as opposed to a more shadowy villain where the primary draw is mystery. I like knowing more about Fisk. I wasn't a big DD fan, but this show is definitely making me adjust that and go grab some TPBs. People keep mentioning Frank Miller's run and Born Again, so I think I'll pick those up.

Curious to hear impressions on Fisk after the full season.
