When I hear John Paesano and Braden Kimball’s “Daredevil” theme, I’m instantly transported.

“Marvel’s Daredevil” premiered 10 years ago on Netflix, when everything about the violent, tortured series was refreshing. Blood dripped from our hero’s wounds and from the images in the title sequence, depicted against a haunting piano melody. The word “gritty” was run into the ground for good reason, and I had that damn theme music on a loop.

The Disney+ incarnation from Dario Scardapane, Matt Corman, and Chris Ord knows exactly what worked about the Netflix series, and wastes little time delivering on all of that. The first episode alone contains a visceral fight in a dark hallway, filmed as one take; constant and gratuitous mentions of Hell’s Kitchen; and of course, the return of Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio) who has allegedly left behind his criminal past — as surely as Matt (Charlie Cox) parted ways with Daredevil’s mask.
