Warning: This article contains spoilers for Daredevil: Born Again episode 5.
There are a lot of masks in Daredevil: Born Again. Stands to reason, right, given that its central character is a crime-fighting vigilante with a penchant for extreme violence. But in one of the latest instalments of the Disney Plus show, it wasn't Matt Murdock's epic stash of cowls that caught our attention, but rather the multi-colored facial coverings of the bandits he brawled with.

Orange's omission in the mask line-up kind of strengthens the fact that this is a subtle Easter egg to Mr Infinity Gauntlet himself Thanos and the Avengers movies if anything, however, because the diamond the crooks are after is... you guessed it... orange. Some fans have even taken it to mean that the Man Without Fear's series is introducing the stones into his more grounded world, though we're not sure we buy into the theory.
Following this week's double-bill, there are only three episodes left of Daredevil: Born Again season 1. If you've been enjoying it, fear not, though, as a second season is currently filming and slated to come out early 2026.
