I do not care for DD, the biggest question is, "How many X Men are going to join the team after the X Men are finished in October?"

I'm joining the New Avengers as well. It's what all the kewl kids are doing these days!

Of course he is. Bendis and Loeb both have a strong personal connection to Daredevil. And with a new DD movie in the works, it makes perfect sense for Marvel to push him.

Could be interesting for Daredevil. Had always hoped he would join right back at the start of New Avengers with the Breakout arc, finger crossed for this.

I like DD in his own corner of the MU, if he's got nothing to do in Hell's Kitchen anymore, I suppose he'll do ok on the team. 
Bendis doing DD again though ruins this for me, I hate having to give him money so's I can read DD's adventures, >:(  He already ruined DD for me once.

"In the works" meaning they have hired someone to write a script. That's not being in the works, that's preparing to be in the works.  It's highly arguable if all this complimentary fiction and boosted amounts of comics for characters that have movies coming out has any effect on getting new fans ANYWAY. Much less doing it now, for a movie that won't be out until...when? Realistically. 2013? Maybe later?  Daredevil, in my opinion, went from being an example of how restarting a series can work fantastically (Kevin Smith's #1 and onward, I never disliked anyone's run) in the face of it dwindling, to being a prime example of gross and disgusting handling (The second half of Diggle's run, including Shadowland).  As much as another Daredevil #1 was pissing me off so soon after giving the title to Black Panther (Instead of giving it BACK to Daredevil), it was a legitimate chance to restart again from where the good half, the first half of Diggle's run left off, and picking up pieces from Shadowland. Now it's going to probably not be self-contained, it's going to be blended in with a billion other characters in the inter-connected Marvel Universe, too. Nothing wrong with that for some, everything wrong with that for Daredevil.  -The Mast

 
I like this.  I don't think anyone is going to say it sucks once it gets started. 

Oh no, that's terrible. I won't like it that much if he joins a team. DD is my fav character. I only like 3 or so characters in Marvel.
This is why I hate Marvel. They keep throwing one character in other' stories or mixing  them with teams.

Daredevil as an Avenger, any kind of Avenger?  
No, no, no, no, NO. 
 
It's bad enough Spiderman's an Avenger, don't need to add DD. 
 
Earth's Mightiest Heroes... how in the world does DD fit into that? 
Yeah, I know, New Avengers, but still... Ms. Marvel, Dr. Strange, Thing...DD.... one of these things is not like the others.

Hand's a lesbian, so if Wolverine hasn't hit it yet, DD definitely won't.

Yeah, but it's a leap-frog effect. Avengers is going to come out sooner than Dare Devil, which will get viewers of the Avengers (possibly) reading the newest Avenger's comic and then, after they get acquainted to Daredevil through the Avengers comic, they'll go watch the Dare Devil movie which is slated to come out 6 months or so after The Avengers movie. Of course, whither it works or not is up to debate. But clearly Marvel believes it does, judging from all the cross-promotion they did with Thor. And I'm not arguing it's a good move at all. Putting all of these Marvel characters into the Avengers is the artistic equivalent of throwing the "Mona Lisa", "Starry Night", and "Guernica" into one massive super painting and then putting it on tour just to make tons of money. None of those painting work together, stylistically, and you'll ruin those masterpieces forever, but they'll do it anyways if it turns over a buck. It's why, in spite of all the stress DC is putting me through as a DC fan, it's nothing compared to the disgust I feel when I consider reading a Marvel comic.

What's with Solo Heroes joining teams all of sudden? Spider-Man has always been a solo hero, and now he's a Team player? Now they pushing DD onto teams too? WTF??

Seeing as how Jessica Jones is the worst candidate for Daredevil's next lover, there's a good chance he'll go for her first. The man is positively incapable of establishing healthy relationships.

Why do I feel that the New Avengers should be the Marvel Knights? 
 
I mean they already have the important street heroes with the exception of Moon Knight, so why not change their name?

Eh, why not. I've always felt that one of Matt's greatest weakness' is that he doesn't reach out for help more often. Should at least make for some interesting stories.

Isn't it great how Daredevil has already been forgiven ( more or less ) for Shadowland, but Tony Stark still has to take crap from nearly everyone for Civil War ( even though he wasn't the only one responsible ) ? Anyway, I think it's an odd decision... But hey, New Avengers isn't one of my monthlies, so I don't mind.

Heck, if Daredevil really wanted to, he could even try hooking up with ... Victoria Hand.

Most enjoyable to see =)

I believe Daredevil should say a loner. He's the Batman of Marvel

@The Mast:
It's not wishful thinking that The Avengers film will get people reading The Avenger's comic book series. It's a fact. It will draw new readers. Most people who watch the movies won't read the comic book series, but that doesn't mean there won't be people who will. Just a bit of anecdotal evidence: the first comic I read was Ultimate Spider-Man #1 (back in 2002-ish), and that was because I enjoyed the Spider-Man movie and the 90s Spider-Man cartoon so much that I wanted to read more. 

He might be on the team then and he might not. That's speculation. But since Bendis is personally attached to Daredevil and since they've already gone through the trouble of putting him in, than I'm leaning towards "he will still be an Avenger". And it's in no way inarguable that Daredevil won't have enough character content for people to like him (you probably won't like the change, but there will be readers who will). Since you haven't read any of Bendis' scripts, I'm going to have to call you out on that one and say that that's a completely unfair assumption. Besides, people who like Daredevil in The Avengers (and, to repeat, there will be some), but who haven't really gotten into him before, will likely read Daredevil's main titles.
 
Unless if the exposure is negative (i. e. the film, video game, commercial, etc. stinks), then greater exposure = increased audience, always. However, I agree with you that the growth of comic book readers will only be marginal. But Marvel isn't so much concerned about gaining new comic book fans as much as keeping franchises alive so that they can profit off of movie, merchandising, and cross-promotion deals. And since Marvel is putting a lot of their money into pushing The Avengers and their future movie franchises, putting Daredevil in the Avengers is what makes the most sense, business-wise.
 
Yeah, this is what I was saying before. I agree that it seems artistically irresponsible for Marvel to make this change to Daredevil and, being cynical about Marvel in general, I've chalked their decision up to making profit.  - The Cosmo

Daredevil is an AVENGER YEAHHHH

I want to join the New Avengers too!

@The Mast: Again, you did. But then you contradicted your earlier statement by saying that they do. But, ignoring your contradiction, I agreed that the revenue they'd gain from comic book sales would be marginal at best (from what I observe as an American. Who knows, maybe they make a huge amount of money on comic books from their movies in Brazil or Malaysia, and I just don't know about it.)
 
Um, again, I agreed with you on this...(I'm honestly getting the impression that you haven't truly understood anything I've said.) 
  
It is an unfair assumption. You have no idea how Daredevil is going to be written. For instance, how do you know that he won't still be written with internal monologue? Unlike X-Force, Avengers is absolutely a gateway comic book for new fans of Marvel to get a very basic understanding of their key characters. Yes, it's better if you've already had experience with each individual character. But Avengers is just a launching-pad for that.

Let me refer you back to what I said: " Unless if the exposure is negative (i. e. the film, video game, commercial, etc. stinks), then greater exposure = increased audience, always."  And I honestly don't know why you're arguing with me. I agree with you in that I think it's artistically irresponsible of Marvel to dilute their characters by putting them in a massive super-hero team just so to support their film franchises (if, as I presume, that is indeed the case.)

Wow..he smacked Black Widow on the arse and he was allowed to keep that hand?!

What do they need DD for? You already have Logan for the senses, Iron Fist, Wolverine, and Spiderman are great fighters, Thing, Luke Cage, Ms Marvel, and Spiderman have the strength. What's the point of DD. Apparently he is replacing Mockingbird.

um...Why? 

I'm cool with this. Daredevil's a cool character, and there'll probably be a reason for him being in the team

A little funny though, Daredevil had considered joining the Avengers twice in the past, once in the late '80s and once during the Busiek/Quesada run. Both times he decided against it, on the basis that his powers works better when he's alone, since every ally around is an extra object for his radar to track so, unless he's perfectly attuned with him/her (like he was with Tasha and Spiderman), he might end up hitting his allies instead of his enemies.
 
I really hope the authors will consider this, at least in the first part of his membership.

Hmm-Daredevil's done some hanging out with an ad hoc group like the Defenders(and the FF) but he's NEVER been much of a "team player" before-this is an intriguing development!

no thanks he can stay in the shadows, and continue being...whatever he's well known for other than the whole blind lawyer thing/

I think he will kick ass as an Avenger
