Daredevil, Vol. 17: Hell to Pay, Vol. 2
by Ed Brubaker
Mr. Fear comes in to full display here, crushing Matt completely.
While some people dislike this arc, considering it "fridging" a character, I completely disagree. fridging is when you introduce a character simply to have them die for the sake of another character. Milla is a character who's been in play for a few years at this point, over 50 issues, and does not feel like she's being used simply to hurt Matt. She gets the shit end of the stick thanks to Matt, but so does most people in Matt's life.
Overall this arc is tense and fucked up. Matt still recovering to what happened to him only a year or so ago with Karen is now trying to deal with a attack on his wife. And Mr. Fear makes sure to strike Matt with a winning blow before Daredevil can do anything to save the ones he loves. A screwed up, almost cynical view on what happens when you live inside the world of a superhero and you aren't one.
A 5 out of 5.
