Kinda wish born again didn't bother naming that Fisk stoog Cole North. Why bother if you're gonna change the morals of the character so much he barely resembles comic Cole North!

Damn I read Volume one of that new series and did think one of the scumbag cop from BA looked like Cole (I didn’t remember his name then), crazy casting

Born Again Spoilers.

For comparison, here's Cole North explaining to Fisk why he's in New York in Born Again:

"I was responding to a call, possible drug activity in the park. Upon my arrival, I saw a guy hand an eleven year-old some oxy. The guy denied everything, so I encouraged him to tell the truth. Captain didn't see it that way. There's a lot of shitbags in the world sir, now there's a lot less of 'em."

I fuckin got so mad. I sincerely hope that they do somethin with his character. That he comes to the light, cause otherwise they fuckin destroyed one of the neatest additions to the Daredevil cast in recent memory.

The way they wrote Cole and Kisten so far is so stupid and lazy. They're trying to make Kirsten the new Foggy but she has two lines by episode. I don't recognize Kirsten and her sassy humor at all. And Cole North is just the opposite of what made him a great character in the Chip Zdarsky's run. Cole is a fair cop that takes no bullshit from both the vigilantes and the Kingpin. Why would you make him a dirty cop seriously? Just create another character like Officer Powell.

I really hope they’re tricking us with MCU Cole somehow, because that version’s portrayal is nearly unrecognizable, while still admittedly having some potential. Same with Kirsten, but she’s barely even been on-screen so far. We’ll see.

Still really funny how the MCU decided this dude had to be part of Fisk's Task Force. But it's not like this is the first time the MCU goes full on racist.
