Do we need to post our comments in anon mode in this thread as well? To be honest, I feel like a friend meme would be a good thing in this fandom and I suppose the discussion post could be used as one if people comment with their DW/LJ handles?
This is really just a question, I'll anon if them are the rules ;)
There's nothing in the rules about it. I think the whole anon thing is more a convention of kink memes than a formal rule, so all that really matters is the general meme attitude towards deanoning. Given how much crossposting to AO3 there is, you might as well start a friending meme and see what happens.
For the sake of consistency, yes please, but I'm not going to be modding the discussion post closely and if you really want to post logged-in here then fine.
(and a friend meme sounds like an excellent idea! you might get more responses if you host it in your own journal and just drop a link here, maybe? idk.)
Anons, what are your favorite Daredevil fics so far? Or, do you have any requests for anything in particular because you feel overwhelmed searching AO3 / the kmeme? This is the thread for all your DD fic needs!
This was the first one that popped into my head, I adore it so much: http://archiveofourown.org/works/3844489 because I am a sucker for Matt and Foggy focused genfic (and Foggy getting upset on Matt's behalf) and also for Matt's blindness having a frustrating impact on his life because sure he can sense shapes and heartbeats and he's a ninja but he is still blind.
And on that note, this one too: http://archiveofourown.org/works/3878332
As for what I'd want, more gen Matt and Foggy (yes I know this is a kink meme but I'm ace so I just adore them loving each other and being platonic bffs). Also I would kinda like to see some more stuff at L&Z, especially surrounding Matt and any way they reacted to and helped (or didn't) with his blindness.
Just what it says on the tin, I've created a Friend Meme for us Daredevil fans. So if you feel like meeting/adding more DD fans to your journaling life, don't hesitate to have a look at the friend meme?

Have fun, and be nice to each other :)
Don't ask me why I'm posting this anonymously, force of habit, I guess?
I just wanted to say thanks to this kinkmeme for existing. This is the best and filthiest kinkmeme I've been on in a long time and it is AMAZING. Thank you Daredevil fandom for being so kinky.
I really enjoyed how Ep 13 was about both Matt and Fisk embracing the darkness instead of stumbling about trying to walk the fine line between good and bad. Fisk declares that he is 'the ill intent' and Matt literally becomes the devil.
I was reading comics! Though not Daredevil. The closest I came to that character were minor appearances in Ultimate Spider-Man (and that was Ultimate Daredevil, so...) and the Darkdevil character in Spider-Girl.
The show inspired me to start reading Waid's run on Daredevil. I love it like crazy, even though it's pretty different from the show. But I think I've heard that it's ending soon? I'm so sad to see Waid go.
Was reading comics and was reading Daredevil before the show. Read all the Bendis and Waid stuff, and half of the Brubaker. I'm not into Miller's writing so I've not read that, and tbh, I'm probably not going to.
Never read any DD comic but thought of doing it after watching the season. Though, as any other comic franchise (avengers, iron man, gotg,...) I feel overwhelmed by the amount of series/storylines etc that my resolution disappear, so I give up xD
Don't be afraid! There's Marvel Unlimited, which is basically Netflix for comics, and it has a free month trial going on right now, it has pretty much all the major issues I think. If you want to read Daredevil, jumping in at Vol. 3 (2011-2014) is very accessible after watching the show.

I only started reading daredevil comics after the show, I've mostly been reading Mark Waid's runs v3 & v4. (Regarding Matt's depression I find how Waid treats it in the narrative really nice. There's a focus on Matt exploring how he feels and learning how to manage his depression. and regardless Waid is a stand up writer in general. The tone is very different from the show though, although just as violent/creepy in some ways.) I also enjoyed Kesel's run in volume 1 (around the 300's I think it was). Not the best I've ever read but it was fun, though I'm possibly bias from my love of Kesel on Superboy. & I am really caught up in the details of Foggy's family drama they went into around this time.
op; lmao I feel you anon, and I've been reading comics for... holy shit maybe 8 years now?? And I still get very overwhelmed by the sheer vastness of comics LIke the other anon's said Daredevil v3 is a really good jumping point. Mark Waid is a solid quality writer so I think you'd have fun reading it! (heads up the comic is just as violent as the show, and a little more body horrory. Also discussions of depression just fyi)
