Would you like to see the Hand return? Maybe in Daredevil: Born Again, in a few seasons after the Mayor Fisk storyline is over.

They could be led by Madame Gao since her survival was teased in The Defenders. I feel like they were pretty wasted in Iron Fist s1 and The Defenders. They were decent in Daredevil s2 though. But I want to see them back and actually using their red ninja costumes rather than black with red highlights.

We're talking 4-5 seasons into the future, then maybe. Never say never, they might even do it better than the Netflix series, but they should keep the focus on Fisk and the New York power struggle for now. There's still loads of different plotlines and characters they could pull in just from that.

I always liked Madam Gao, would be happy to see her (always liked the theory that she is actually Fing Fang Foom).

But the Hand? Dear God no, not the Hand. Daredevil season two was easily the weakest series of the three. I will never understand how they made a ninja organized crime group boring, but boy did they manage it.

kyle03052025-10-30 21:56

Wait you don’t want to see the Hand return because they were not done justice in the past? I never understood this logic. Surely that should make you want to see them return but this time done right?

Lockist2025-10-30 22:34

That's fair tbh, like I say a ninja OCG should be awesome. It feels like it would need a lot of set up to do it justice. Ok call me skeptical but open

Smoking-Posing2025-10-30 23:50

Hard disagree. Season 2 was the best IMHO.

DSmooth4252025-10-31 07:43

Absolutely LOVED Madame GAO!! Was my favorite of the 5 digits of the Hand in Defenders. Bakuto was probably next

TH3PhilipJFry2025-10-30 21:44

New ideas would be cool.

BackgroundEngineer112025-10-30 21:55

I'd only want to see the Hand return if there's a guarantee they will be done right.

kyle03052025-10-30 21:58

Yeah this is fair. They have so much potential but Netflix really wasted them by trying to make them grounded. They were reduced to basically just a group of mercenaries. I want full on mystical ninjas, not guy with gun but can also kick sometimes

BackgroundEngineer112025-10-30 22:00

In Iron Fist season 1 they were hacky sack playing guppies.

AdmiralCharleston2025-10-30 21:57

The hand half of dds2 was a chore to get through, unless there's buff changes im not that excited about the thought of it coming back

kyle03052025-10-30 21:59

That’s because Netflix ruined the Hand and removed all the interesting stuff about the group. They have massive potential but were reduced to yet another militia with guns

Primus71127652025-10-30 22:10

No. The hand was the consistently the worst part of the netflix shows. They messed it up so often that I'm convinced it's got the same problem as the phoenix saga in xmen, it just doesn't work in live action. They managed to make magic ninjas boring, there's no coming back from that imo.

BatmanForever232025-10-30 22:20

Hardest of passes. We've had the Hand in Daredevil S2, Defenders, and Iron Fist - they were the weakest parts of all of those imo. Not only is there no reason to believe they'd be done better, Born Again S2 will for intents and purposes be the *fifth* season of Daredevil and there has been *astonishingly* little variety in terms of antagonists. There's been Fisk, there's been the Hand, and there's been Bullseye - and Elektra, to a lesser extent as she's less of a pure villain.

Please, when Fisk is done, give us something *new*.

HanzoSteel2025-10-30 22:49

1000% yes. The Netflix shows have barely even scratched the surface.

Smoking-Posing2025-10-30 23:49

Most definitely yes, and they could use an upgrade too

Madmonkeman2025-10-30 23:52

I loved The Hand in DD S2 but I’m not sure how it would make sense in the story for them to return.

Uncanny_Doom2025-10-30 23:53

When was Gao teased to survive? I don’t recall that.

It’s weird seeing how many people will say they want to see something like Taskmaster done again because they didn’t like it but don’t want to see any attempt to do The Hand again. I think The Hand has potential but I also don’t think they were left in a space to return easily. The group is completely destroyed so there would have to be an interesting story and proper character chosen to be a leader and face for them. I don’t think Born Again should go immediately from Fisk to The Hand either the way the original series did.

kyle03052025-10-31 00:50

When the Defenders were defeating the Hand in the pit below Midland Circle, Murakami is shown unconscious before the building collapses, but Gao was shown sneaking off into the shadows. Indicating she may have escaped somehow.

It’s hard to see how the Hand was completely destroyed. They were a global organisation with thousands of members. At most a few hundred have died/been arrested in the Netflix shows. There are thousands more out there.

Uncanny_Doom2025-10-31 01:28

Huh? The last shot of Madame Gao in the show is her looking at the Midland Circle bomb ticking before it blows up. There is no sneaking into the shadows or implied escape. She is implied to be dead by a very common trope of the villain getting blown up.

The Hand’s entire leadership and method of revival is gone, that’s basically complete destruction. It’s not impossible to bring them back but it certainly isn’t a natural, logical thing.

Mr___Wrong2025-10-30 23:55

Oh gods, please no. By far, the most boring thing about these shows has been the Hand. They just aren't that interesting and after so much so far with them, time to retire the Hand.

kyle03052025-10-31 00:51

They are VERY interesting. The Netflix shows just removed all the interesting bits

Whatsinanmame2025-10-31 00:25

I was under the impression season 2 would be the last.

kyle03052025-10-31 00:52

It’s already been renewed for season 3. And it’s been rumoured that it might be a yearly release for some time to come

SupervillainMustache2025-10-31 00:36

Nah, go for something new. Daredevil has a rich history.

Fallenjace2025-10-31 01:09

Give me The Hand, and The Foot -- and give us the TMNT crossover we deserve.

j821c2025-10-31 05:10

I felt like it was very poorly done in the Netflix series. Granted, I know next to nothing about the hand in the comics but season 2 of daredevil outside of the punisher parts was actually hard to get through. So maybe? Maybe just focus on something else entirely? Im ready for a different bad guy at this point though because Fisk has been the main focus for 3/4 seasons of daredevil

Nonadventures2025-10-31 08:00

The Hand parts of Daredevil have been my least favorite part, but I guess it depends how linked he gets into main MCU stuff

thebeast_962025-10-31 08:56

Absolutely not.

Aglet_Green2025-10-31 09:42

I recently had elbow surgery so for me personally I'd like to see my right hand return to full power, where I can turn it into a thing that is like unto iron.

As to what I personally want, I want Rachael Taylor's Hell-cat in the MCU. Everything else is negotiable. Whether we get back Ward Meachum or Turk or Ellison, I'm flexible; whether we get back Gao or Nobu or Elektra is up to the whims of the powers-that-be, but I really would like to see Patricia Walker.

drnprz2025-10-31 13:20

i am honestly tired of them and would not want a repeat of the defender storyline

Dell0c02025-10-31 15:58

Not if they were like on Netflix. They just threw 100 disposable ninjas at everyone and made ninjas look weak as fvck.

kyle03052025-10-31 16:43

No they shouldn’t be anything like they were on Netflix. They got the Hand completely wrong on those shows and removed all the interesting stuff about them

CheapTactics2025-10-31 16:46

It's rather see something else with DD. We saw the hand, we've done fisk 3 times already, let's do something new.

BOBULANCE2025-11-01 08:21

Nope, we got plenty of the hand. Daredevil has a big rogues gallery, I'd like to see them instead.

snidece2025-11-01 09:28

Who?

Throwupmyhands2025-11-03 02:52

I love Madame Gao and always want her back. But I’m bored with the Hand.
