Thoughts on which defenders characters got blipped

Daredevil: Confirmed not to be blipped because he was seen fighting maya during those 5 years.

Luke Cage: he gets blipped and when he returns the club is abandoned so he goes back to fighting crime on the streets of Harlem.

Iron Fist: he doesn’t blip and returns to New York after ward and half the world suddenly disappears, he doesn’t seem to find Colleen either.

Jessica Jones: Does not blip and continues to keep crime low and tries to solve crimes and why lots have disappeared.

Colleen Wing: she is blipped and Danny returns along with the iron fist.

Misty Knight: Not blipped and mourns after her friends Luke Cage and Colleen Wing, she tries to find out why almost everyone is gone.

The Punisher: He isn’t blipped and continues to destroy the scum on the streets, he keeps his vigilantism and is very angry due to the recent events.

Confusion about episode 4

Im watching this show for the first time, and the description of the fingers of the Hand is throwing me off a little. I understand that there are members from Africa and Japan and whatnot, but Alexandra has an American accent and, according to the comics, the Hand was formed before America. Did she develop it over time or is the timeline different or something?

If Daredevil and the rest of the shows are set in the MCU why are they so vague about everything?

I just started watching DateDevil, great show so far, but I was wondering why are they so vague about the battle of NewYork? I know it is confirmed now they are apart of the MCU thanks to Spiderman No Way Home, but if they are, why are they so vague about everything? Was this a test to see if they do fit the MCU? Was it not a done deal yet between Netflix and Disney?

Who would win in a fight: Daredevil or James Bond(Daniel Craig)?

Let’s say bond is on the roof top at night, and is attempting to snipe a target, and daredevil interrupts him. Who do think wins?

FUN FACT: The Epilogue of Punisher Season 2 takes place in August 2018, and since the Blip happens in May 2018, this means that not only the Punisher survived, but also this is the only scene in the Netflix shows that takes place after the Blip.

If the press conference was your first impression of Fisk, would you believe him?

I mean, I feel like I certainly would, if this was my first impression of Fisk.

Because Fisk is that calculated with his choice of words. He pretty much describes himself, but then attaches those attributions to the Devil of Hell's Kitchen, and attaches himself to the Devil of Hell's Kitchen's actual attributions. He even uses his social awkwardness to make himself look more relatable.

And of course, none of this would work unless Fisk deep down actually believed the things he said, and truly believed he was the "good guy" here. This is made apparent by comparing what Fisk says in his speech here to what Karen (an actual "good girl") says when she gives her courthouse press conference in season 3 during Nadeem's grand jury hearing.

Fisk in 1x08:

"I'm not very good at this, out, being in public. But I felt the need to speak up for this city that I love with all my heart. No one should have to live in fear. In fear of madmen who have no regard for who they injure. In fear of the Devil of Hell's Kitchen, who has inflicted untold pain and suffering. This masked terrorist and psychopaths of his kind, we must show them we will not bow down to their campaign of coercion and intimidation. We must stand up to them."

Karen in 3x12:

"We have all been lied to. All right? We've been manipulated by a sociopath who doesn't care about the truth... or about who he hurts or about anyone other than himself. Last night, Wilson Fisk tried to have me killed because I know the truth. The man who was wearing the Daredevil suit is not the real Daredevil. He is an impostor who is helping Wilson Fisk take back control of New York's criminal underworld."

Danny Rand (paraphrasing): “I took a vow of chastity at K’un-Lun. It’s part of the sacred code of the Iron Fist.” Also Danny like an episode later:

After hearing Colleen say so tenderly, “Danny…I want you to stay.” I can’t say I blame him. Even Davos relaxed the rule eventually, albeit mainly as a means to an end.

Father Lantom predicted how Ben Urich would die [DD 1x09]

Father Lantom in 1x09: "I'd become close with the village elder, Gahiji. He and his family had the respect of everybody, Hutu and Tutsi alike. He'd helped them all through famines, disease. The militia liked to force Hutu villagers to murder their neighbors with machetes. But nobody would raise a hand against Gahiji. They said, 'Well how can we kill such a holy man?' So the militia commander sent soldiers with orders to cut his head off in front of the entire village. Gahiji didn't try to put up a fight. Just asked for the chance to say goodbye to his family. By the time he was done, even the soldiers didn't wanna kill him. So they went to their commander and asked permission to shoot him. At least give him a quick death. The commander wanted to meet this man who had won the respect of so many. He went to Gahiji. Talked with him in his hut for many hours. Then he dragged him out in front of his village and hacked him to pieces along with his entire family. In that man who took Gahiji's life, I saw the Devil. So yes, Matthew. I believe he walks among us, taking many forms."

1x12: Wilson Fisk personally visits Ben Urich, a journalist who is very respected by the public, by old school mobsters of the generation that preceded Fisk, and even Fisk himself ("You're a man of principle, of conviction. I understand that, I even admire it"). He talks with him for several minutes. And then he grabs him and viciously strangles him to death.

I really like the bait and switch they pull here

Fisk gives the green light for Blake to be taken out

I mean, while the sniper is lining up his shot, the view down his scope seems to largely focus on Ben, suggesting Ben is his target. So when he instead shoots Detective Blake, then the two other cops (to make Blake look like he was randomly selected), it's a bit shocking. But not really, considering that Fisk had earlier in the episode decided Blake was a liability in light of Matt stealing his phone. And while Ben is certainly a threat to Fisk given he wrote the Union Allied piece, Fisk also knows there's little merit in killing a reporter like him (at this point in time; once Ben intrudes on Fisk's personal life by speaking to his mother, it'll be a different story).
