Framed
Episode #33 - Framed When wealthy industrialist Wilson Fisk takes an active interest in Peter Parker's future, Peter thinks his luck has finally taken a turn for the better. But when Fisk sets Peter up, framing him for a federal crime, it soon becomes evident that Fisk is secretly The Kingpin! Review: This episode is the first part of a 2-part story-featuring Daredevil, and is the best team up episode the series ever did.
I could go on all day about my own fan boy dream for a Daredevil animated series, but I’ll spare you. These episodes are quite clearly the best we’ll see for some time.
The plot is something different for Spider-Man. As the title of the episode suggests, our hero has been framed for treason! In an unusual twist, both Peter Parker and Spider-Man were framed, thanks to The Chameleon.
With that out of the way, we enter the best part of the episode, Daredevil himself. He had a very badass design, which again, came as a surprise. Beyond the first season, someone in charge obviously lost the plot when it came to visuals.
His origin is slightly revamped from the comic book version, and was the inspiration for the Daredevil feature length film starring Ben Affleck. Karen Page and Foggy Nelson were nowhere to be seen, but considering the large amount of characters, it’s forgivable.
Overall, this episode was one of the best the series had to offer, and started a string of very strong episodes from the third season. Screenshots:
