Daredevil Netflix Series: Karen Page


Deborah Ann Woll plays Karen Page in Netflix's Daredevil series and we finally saw Matt and Karen's relationship take it to the next level in Season 2.  In the comics, Karen Page, was also Matt's love interest and sadly, the very person who lead him to a fairly tumultuous time in his life.

[MINOR SPOILERS]

Karen Page as portrayed by Deborah Ann Woll in the Netflix TV series, is memorable for her pivotal role in the Daredevil: Born Again graphic novel, that almost derailed Matt's career and overall well being. In the comics, Page was a former lover of Matt Murdock as well as his law firm's secretary.  The latter role was seen in season one of the Netflix series. Written by Frank Miller with artwork by David Mazzuchellli, both characters were pushed to the brink of their lives, with Page betraying Murdock's secret identity.  It was a complete turnaround for Page, as the opening pages of the storyline portrayed her in complete disarray and deep despair. The Kingpin gets a hold of this information regarding Daredevil's secret identity and systematically thrusts Murdock's personal life into utter chaos.

We don't suspect we'll see this saga play out anytime soon if ever, as Karen and Matt's relationship in the TV series continues to develop once again, based on the season 2 finale.
