Netflix shared a new Daredevil season 2 teaser at New York Comic Con, and thankfully, attendees aren’t the only ones who get to see it. The short preview is only 30 seconds, but it manages to intrigue, as well as give fans a first (if ever so brief) look at the Punisher (played by Jon Bernthal) and Elektra (Elodie Yung).

After pushing through a minute and a half of recap and hype from season 1, the new teaser shows Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) in a church pew with Karen (Deborah Ann Woll) and Froggy (Elden Henson). “Why do I still feel guilty?” we hear Matt ask Father Lantom (Peter McRobbie). “Guilt can be a good thing,” the priest responds. “It’s the soul’s call to action, the indication that your work is not yet finished.”

As Father Lantom advises, we’re given short bursts from the season to come, and it’s enough to get any Daredevil fan’s adrenaline spiking. We see Elektra covering part of her face, Claire (Rosario Dawson) at the hospital, the police investigating a crime scene at what appears to be the same hospital, and the Punisher armed and striding through the hallways of — you guessed it — the hospital. The screen cuts to black, and someone (presumably the Punisher) says, “bang!” (Yes, the teaser literally ends with a bang.)

Unfortunately for fans, we still have a long wait before Daredevil returns for season 2. It won’t be back until 2016, but in the meantime, there will be an entire season of Jessica Jones to watch starting Nov. 20. The two series are part of a four-pack of Marvel shows for Netflix that will ultimately unite to form the cross-over series The Defenders.

App Store tweeted the Daredevil season 2 preview, which starts around the 1:35 mark below after the season 1 “sizzle reel.”

Dispatches from day 3 of San Diego Comic-Con 2022
Dwayne Johnson as Black Adam at Comic-Con.

The third day of San Diego Comic-Con is almost always the busiest day for news, especially when Marvel Studios or Warner Bros.' DC movies come to Hall H. But this year was one for the ages. There was so much happening that I never even had a chance to get to the convention floor on Saturday. That's why I have a different agenda in mind for the final day. But first, let's go over the biggest events of day 3.
Finally, the Rock has come back to San Diego!

When Dwayne Johnson was still wrestling for WWE as The Rock, he would often describe himself as "the most electrifying man in sports entertainment." He's always had a knack for big entrances, but it might be hard to top this one. Johnson arrived in Hall H wearing his costume from Black Adam and standing on a platform that raised him high as video lightning and some fog effects surrounded him.  You can watch it for yourself below.

Dispatches from day 2 of San Diego Comic-Con 2022
A sandcastle inspired by The Sandman.

If you're in town for San Diego Comic-Con, one of the biggest buzzwords is "activation." That's studio-speak for the attractions outside of Comic-Con that I mentioned yesterday in my last dispatch. But first, some context: The San Diego Convention Center is essentially across the street from both Petco Park and San Diego's Gaslamp Quarter. And there's so much happening inside the convention center that some fans miss the action outside.

Beautiful, isn't it? As someone who used to live in San Diego, I can say that it wasn't always that nice. But even before the ballpark was there, work was underway to revitalize the Gaslamp. And for over a decade, studios have used the surrounding Gaslamp neighborhood to expand the reach of Comic-Con itself. With the activations, fans don't need a badge to have a Comic-Con experience.
Blast from the past
The very first activation I ever went to at Comic-Con was the recreation of Flynn's Arcade for Disney's Tron: Legacy. The original Tron happens to be a personal favorite of mine, but I would have gone for the retro arcade alone. It was a set up like a real arcade with both classic games and working versions of the Tron-inspired video games from the movie itself. But it was also so much more.

Dispatches from day 1 of San Diego Comic-Con 2022
Chris Pine and Regé-Jean Page in Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves.

After a three-year hiatus, San Diego Comic-Con has returned to the San Diego Convention center. And so far, the hottest item isn't an exclusive action figure or statue. It's the wristband that indicates whether fans have been vaccinated or tested for COVID-19. Even pre-pandemic, the large Comic-Con crowds made it difficult to get into the convention center. But this year, the longest lines are for the COVID wristbands, and it created havoc as fans tried to make their way inside.

There's no way to talk about this year's Comic-Con without addressing COVID. It's the reason why everyone has to wear a mask this year, even if you aren't cosplaying. The pandemic kept Comic-Con dormant in 2020 and 2021, and there are signs that not everyone is ready for the show to go back to what it used to be.
