At night he becomes Daredevil, wearing a red, horned and armored suit to fight crime and avengehis father, who was murdered after refusing to take a loss in a fixed boxing match.

　　但是，每当夜晚来临，他就会戴上带角头盔、穿上红色制服、全副武装，变身超胆侠，惩恶扬善、为父报仇。他的父亲因为拒绝在拳击比赛中假输而惨遭杀害。

　　But among his other caped and super-suited counterparts, Daredevil's abilities pale in comparison.

　　但是与其他斗篷加身、装备超群的超级英雄相比，超胆侠的能力变得相形见绌。

　　Unlike Batman, who has a personal arsenal of advanced fighting equipment, and Spiderman, whocan slingshot himself onto roofs and over walls, Daredevil relies mostly on hand-to-hand combat tosurvive. And sadly enough, in almost every episode of the show, we watch as he is badly batteredby his opponents before narrowly securing a victory.

　　蝙蝠侠的“私人军火库”里满是先进武器;蜘蛛侠可以用蛛丝飞檐走壁;而超胆侠大多时候却是赤膊上阵。更虐心的是，几乎在每一集我们都会看到超胆侠被对手打得遍体鳞伤，最后勉强获胜。

　　"He's not super strong. He's not invulnerable. In every aspect, he's a man that's just pushedhimself to the limits, he just has senses that are better than a normal human's," Steven S.DeKnight, the show's executive producer, told entertainment magazine Paste. "He is human."

　　正如《超胆侠》的执行制作人蒂文•S•迪奈特在接受娱乐杂志Paste采访时所言：“他(超胆侠)并非强大无比、刀枪不入;说到底，他只是在努力超越自己的极限，拥有比常人更强的感官能力罢了。他依旧是个普通人。”

　　But it's this vulnerability that's brought the show its loyal following.

　　但是，超胆侠的脆弱却为这部剧带来了一大批忠实的粉丝。

　　"It’' dark and gripping, smart and sure-footed, and takes itself and its audience seriously whileavoiding pretentious brooding," wrote Jack Hamilton of Slate.com. "So far Daredevil is the bestsuperhero television show I've ever seen."

　　来自Slate.com的杰克•汉密尔顿就写道：“这部剧神秘又扣人心弦，充满智慧、节奏稳健;无论是对待自己还是观众都非常认真，从不故作深沉。《超胆侠》是迄今为止我看过的最好的一部超级英雄电视剧。”
