With Daredevil on Netflix being so good I’m sure there are a lot of new Daredevil fans looking to know more about the history of the comic, or people who have been fans forever but still want to know some new stuff. 

This is the most important thing to know: at one point, to avoid giving away his identity, Matt Murdock made up a twin brother named Mike Murdock who he said was actually Daredevil. He hung out with Karen and Foggy pretending to be Mike for a solid YEAR AND A HALF. 

IM AS SHY AS I AM GLAMOROUS

Mike was a sharp dresser and never showed up in the same room as Matt which??? didn’t make Foggy and Karen suspicious probably because it is too ridiculous to even suspect. 

The best part was when he decided he should marry Karen, but still didn’t want to give up the ruse. 

SHOULD I PROPOSE TO HER AS MATT, WHO IS A REAL PERSON, OR MIKE, THE HIP FAKE TWIN

i would have loved to see how that carried out, Karen only seeing her husband or his twin but neither both and still?? believing it? forever?? amazing. 

sadly, mike ‘died’ in a tragic accident a little more than a year after he came onto the scene.
