A simple chat could make me on the edge of my seat reading this. Amazing.

Matt is taking a break from being Daredevil. He's at a point in his life where he just doesn't know if he wants to be a crime fighter. So he decides to try to live his life as normal as possible. That means being a Parole officer now as well as also hitting on woman, because that is Matt's way. However, no matter how hard he tries he can't fully push himself away because he is daredevil in his heart. Always looking to help, and he still does in little ways.

On the flipside we have Kingpins storyline where he's had enough of crime. He actually walks away from his criminal empire and wants to get into legit business. I mean as legit as pieces of shit who run these big businesses and do little deals and screw over the little people legal as you can get type stuff. But either way it's a new side of the Kingpin we haven't seen despite his urge to still be a raging piece of shit.

Overall, a fantastic volume. We have so much at play yet it all still works. Matt is never even in his signature red costume, mostly using whatever street clothes he has on to do any type of fighting. My favorite part of it all is how scared he is to even fight because of what happened in the last volume. On top of that the cop storyline is great as well as Kingpins. When have 3 separate storylines all working really well the engaging reading is even better.

Also the art...goddamn. Marco Checchetto is doing some AMAZING work here. Somehow gritty without being TOO gritty. Somehow Noir without being depressing. Somehow he's mixing multiple styles and still flowing sooooo smooth with the action. The art is just as good as the writing for this title.

I can't say for sure if this will be the best run of all time for me. It'll be hard to top Bendis and Brubaker's run, but the way this is going, it just might do it. A 5 out of 5.
