Summary

The Angel of Death has come to Hell’s Kitchen。 As a series of grisly murders tests Elektra’s mettle — and her commitment to her role as the new Daredevil — the city spirals into a state of panic。 With the body count mounting, even the Marvel Universe’s deadliest assassin is at somewhat of a loss — because this serial killer can be in more than one place at a time! A team? A mutant? Or something else entirely? Meanwhile, Matt Murdock faces challenges of his own behind bars after being exposed to a dangerous and experimental compound that makes subjects more aggressive and violent。 Whatever happens, one thing is certain — Matt won’t be getting time off for good behavior! The next installment of Chip Zdarsky’s Eisner Award-nominated run delivers twists, turns and unexpected allies!

I love when stories focus on character intentions, especially here with the parallels between Daredevil and Elektra。 I'm always a sucker for morals and ultimately doing what's right。 I love when stories focus on character intentions, especially here with the parallels between Daredevil and Elektra。 I'm always a sucker for morals and ultimately doing what's right。 。。。more

This run as a whole is one of my favorites。 Just an overall great story arc and really captures DD as a character。

Matt is in jail, Elektra is on the streets as Daredevil, and Bullseye is on a killing spree。 What else could go wrong? There could be more than one Bullseye。。。Chaos in all of NYC, as all the heroes scramble to take down the villain who never misses。 But in jail, Matt has had enough, and temporarily takes over the prison。 When he finds out what his nemesis is doing, he breaks out of jail and does what he does best。。。。This Volume was action packed and sets us up for a crossover called Devil's Reig Matt is in jail, Elektra is on the streets as Daredevil, and Bullseye is on a killing spree。 What else could go wrong?

In no particular order:Daredevil gets a beardThe return of Bullseye(s)Mary does Daredevil。Wilson Fisk gets married。Daredevil finally gets out of this prison arc-thankfully。

Daredevil just does it for me every time

Characters have been the heart of Zdarsky's run, and this volume is great for turning points for a number of them。Wilson and Mary have a notable turning point that feels like it's a long-time coming。Elektra reveals more about who she is and who she wants to be。Matt gets short shrift, but when he emerges at the end it's obvious he's changed too。There's some silly battle against multiple Bullseye, but it's all in service to the above。 Characters have been the heart of Zdarsky's run, and this volume is great for turning points for a number of them。Wilson and Mary have a notable turning point that feels like it's a long-time coming。Elektra reveals more about who she is and who she wants to be。Matt gets short shrift, but when he emerges at the end it's obvious he's changed too。There's some silly battle against multiple Bullseye, but it's all in service to the above。 。。。more

Funciona como un cierre eficiente a la historia del volumen 6 de Daredevil。 Permite construir nuevas expectativas sobre el personaje de Matt Murdock y todo su universo, aunque puede que construya mucho para el futuro sin terminar de ser un cierre。

Writer Chip Zdarsky’s stellar run on Daredevil continues with this volume that collects Daredevil issues 31-36, ostensibly the end of this chapter of DD’s life。 The art is a little uneven in this one with three different artists contributing; Marco Checchetto only contributes one issue, in preparation for the inevitable Marvel “Event” series, Devil’s Reign, which followed this volume and is finishing up now, along with Daredevil: Woman Without Fear, which continues the Elektra-as-Daredevil story Writer Chip Zdarsky’s stellar run on Daredevil continues with this volume that collects Daredevil issues 31-36, ostensibly the end of this chapter of DD’s life。 The art is a little uneven in this one with three different artists contributing; Marco Checchetto only contributes one issue, in preparation for the inevitable Marvel “Event” series, Devil’s Reign, which followed this volume and is finishing up now, along with Daredevil: Woman Without Fear, which continues the Elektra-as-Daredevil storyline for three issues。 (Supposedly Zdarsky is relaunching Daredevil in yet another new series, but he’s also the new writer of Batman for DC Comics, so we’ll see how that goes。 Evidently no one is exclusive anymore。) This volume wraps up the Daredevil in prison storyline, sees DD and Elektra band together to fight Bullseye (with a wicked little twist), and The Kingpin—NYC Mayor Wilson Fisk—takes a bride。 Still enjoyable and still Marvel’s best-written title, even if the art is a little “meh” at times。 。。。more

Después de más de 30 números en los que el gran Chip Zdarsky (próximo escitor de Batman), ha puesto a Daredevil en la cárcel, torturado a Wilson Fisk, y ha hecho que una espléndida Elektra asuma el manto del diablo rojo, todo acaba decantando hacia la rivalidad principal: Daredevil vs Kingpin。 El tomo comienza con Daredevil en la cárcel, purgando un asesinato involuntario que cometió ¡en el primer número del run de Zdarsky! Por su parte, Kingpin intenta una vida familiar (no sin crímenes ocultos Después de más de 30 números en los que el gran Chip Zdarsky (próximo escitor de Batman), ha puesto a Daredevil en la cárcel, torturado a Wilson Fisk, y ha hecho que una espléndida Elektra asuma el manto del diablo rojo, todo acaba decantando hacia la rivalidad principal: Daredevil vs Kingpin。 El tomo comienza con Daredevil en la cárcel, purgando un asesinato involuntario que cometió ¡en el primer número del run de Zdarsky! Por su parte, Kingpin intenta una vida familiar (no sin crímenes ocultos), y Elektra-Daredevil debe lidiar con un aún más enloquecido Bullseye。 El truco de Zdarsky (porque tras 30 números uno acaba notando ciertos trucos), es que en literalmente cada página la trama toma un giro inesperado, y personajes o conflictos que habían quedado cinco o seis números atrás, reaparecen cambiando todo。 Es muy meritorio, además, el que sea capaz de mantener el control de tantos argumentos juntos: además de los ya mencionados está el conflicto interno de Cole, el policía, el conflico de Izzy Ibris, la nueva Kingpin, el conflicto del hijo de Kingpin quien junto al hermano de Matt Murdock (!!); intentan torpemente tomar las riendas del crimen。 Pero lo que cierra este tomo, de modo espectacular, y abre la trama hacia una dirección que de seguro será inolvidable, es un asunto que se mencionó en los primeros números, y que con cualquier otro escritor hubiera quedado ahí nada más, por frecuente。 Y es que la etapa de Zdarsky abre con el mundo habiendo olvidado que Matt Murdock es Dardevil (luego de que, en etapas anteriores, su identidad hubiera sido revelada -en rigor, eso se retrotrae hasta "Born Again" de Fran Miller)。 Eso es tan típico en los comics, que llega a ser aburrido, ¿no? Algo se revela, pero luego algún reinicio trunca esa revelación。 Pero Zdarsky, magistralmente, hace que Kingpin empiece a sospechar。 ¿Por qué algunos de sus documentos dicen que él sabía quién era Dardevil, pero ahora no puede recordarlo? (él no lo sabe, pero no puede recordarlo -así como el resto del mundo- por una hipnosis masiva que borró de la mente de todos aquella información)。 Con esa sospecha acaba el tomo, y uno comprende que se viene algo gigantesco。 Ni tengo que añadir que este es el mejor comic de superhérores de la actualidad。 No tiene desperdicio alguno。 Lo único lamentable (como en tomos anteriores), es que el magistral Marco Checceto (responsable de la estética de esta etapa) no dibuje todos los números。 Enorme。 。。。more

To be honest, there are points where this run is a little bit too silly for my tastes, but it's still really well executed, so I'm enjoying it。 To be honest, there are points where this run is a little bit too silly for my tastes, but it's still really well executed, so I'm enjoying it。 。。。more

This Daredevil run is one of the first ones I started with when I got back into comics。 I believe that, much like the Netflix series, Matt spends more time out of costume but in, but Zdarsky has written a really interesting story in which Matt has had to confront the flaws in the justice system and the consequences of his vigilante justice。 This volume is really the culmination of of his entire run and leads into the big Marvel crossover, Devil's Reign。Alas, this is also the point of the series This Daredevil run is one of the first ones I started with when I got back into comics。 I believe that, much like the Netflix series, Matt spends more time out of costume but in, but Zdarsky has written a really interesting story in which Matt has had to confront the flaws in the justice system and the consequences of his vigilante justice。 This volume is really the culmination of of his entire run and leads into the big Marvel crossover, Devil's Reign。Alas, this is also the point of the series where they start brining in a bunch of new artists。 This is why this loses a star for me。 I think Marco Checchetto does amazing work and he's only on one issue in this volume。 The other artists just don't compare well。 。。。more

Josh

Not quite as thematically strong as some past volumes, but an effective ending of many of the major plot threads so far while setting up some interesting possibilities for the future。

Edward Davies

Great conclusion to this run。

Brandon Daniels

Not much new to say here。 Continues to be an amazing run。 Zdarsky’s ability to deal with multiple levels of stakes and balance real issues such as prison reform/ethics with cartoonish tropes is particularly impressive in this trade。

If I could rate this 4。5, I would。。。No book is perfect, but everything about this book just flows smoothly。 We're seeing things on an issue by issue basis change and shift, but still progress towards a goal。 It's like a chess game。 The pieces in this collection have all played their roles perfectly。 The reintroduction of Bullseye(s), Elektra-devil, Mike (dumbass) Murdock, and the list goes on。This author is one to watch and follow if you love a well paced noir'ish narrative。 Also, the art steps If I could rate this 4。5, I would。。。No book is perfect, but everything about this book just flows smoothly。 We're seeing things on an issue by issue basis change and shift, but still progress towards a goal。 It's like a chess game。 The pieces in this collection have all played their roles perfectly。 The reintroduction of Bullseye(s), Elektra-devil, Mike (dumbass) Murdock, and the list goes on。This author is one to watch and follow if you love a well paced noir'ish narrative。 Also, the art steps beyond being 'comic' and just lives on its own。 Panel after panel。 。。。more

Tyler Talley

Again letdown by the art as well as the Electra/Bullseye face-off but this run continues to entertain with its twists and turns。 And it’s a special kind of geeky joy when Electra pulls out a pair of Iron Man sai。

A great conclusion to this arc。。。。 still not a fan of the beard。

This might be my favourite collection so far。 The change in Matt is felt at the end and it really feels like the start of a brand new interesting chapter。

Still pretty good! This basically completes the reformation of who Matt Murdock (and Daredevil) are although what he's become isn't completely defined by the end of this。 The path to get here did a lot of shaking things up, for the better, allowing for new stories to be told。 In this volume in particular, there were one or two things that were unexpected and at least one subplot felt rushed, but by the end it has the feeling of both a beginning and ending。 While the same characters are there, Zd Still pretty good!

Daredevil by Chip Zdarsky vol。 7: Lockdown This volume finds Matt Murdock imprisoned, as Daredevil, while also working as an informant for the FBI。 Outside, Mike Murdock and Butch are still conspiring to take control of organized crime in New York。 At the same time Elektra is still working as Daredevil and she's trying to take out Bullseye, who has escaped from Kingpin's labs, with three clones and starts randomly killing people, allover New York。 Kingpin himself seems exhausted with life and is Daredevil by Chip Zdarsky vol。 7: Lockdown This volume finds Matt Murdock imprisoned, as Daredevil, while also working as an informant for the FBI。 Outside, Mike Murdock and Butch are still conspiring to take control of organized crime in New York。 At the same time Elektra is still working as Daredevil and she's trying to take out Bullseye, who has escaped from Kingpin's labs, with three clones and starts randomly killing people, allover New York。 Kingpin himself seems exhausted with life and is involved in a weird romance with Typhoid Mary。 Daredevil, while trying to expose the prison for creating rage and violence drugs, he gets infected by them and he leads a huge riot。 After he learns about Bullseye being on the loose, he escapes and he tries to help Elektra with capturing him。This was a very enjoyable volume。 At this point Chip Zdarsky has been writing Daredevil for some time and it's clear that his understanding of all the characters is incredible。 Elektra and Matt have always had an extremely different way of working and it's great seeing Elektra finding a way to work as Daredevil in her own way, while still keeping Matt's values。 Matt himself, in this volume, is still struggling, in his head, with some ideas, like what to do with Fisk and what's a superhero's purpose。 The idea of what superheroes need to do and if they are above the law is an important one throughout the series, but it's further analyzed in this volume, in a very interesting way。 Furthermore, something else I really liked in this volume is the romance between Fisk and Mary。 Although Fisk is a vilain and has done multiple horrible things, I still like him a lot and I like seeing him happy。 Since I read Frank Miller's legendary Daredevil run and his amazing graphic novel "Daredevil: Love and War" I've felt some kind of affection for Kingpin。 He's a man who has lost a lot and has been left with huge emotional scars because of everything that happened with Vanessa, so it's nice to see him finding love again, in the face of Mary。 Another character I liked in this volume is Cole。 He's certainly more of a secondary character at this point, but his character development since the beginning of the series has been amazing。 Also, I love the way the comic shows how private prisons do anything in order to make more money and they don't actually care about rehabilitating the inmates。 While this volume includes some more serious themes, like this, it also has a lot of action。 I'm usually not a huge fan of very action packed comics, but Chip Zdarsky has a way of writing fight scenes that makes me enjoy them a lot。 The big fight between Elektra and Bullseye was certainly a highlight of this volume and it was very entertaining。 While I liked this volume a lot, it had some problems。 My main problem with it is the same one I had with the pervious volume。 There are just too many things happening at the same time, that it feels like too little happen in each specific part of the series, in every issue。 Also, the story with Butch and Mike Murdock trying to take over the control of organised crime in New York feels very uninteresting to me and I think it's a missed opportunity, because the idea is very good, but it's actually not that well executed。 That might be mainly because I'm very unfamiliar with both characters and Chip Zdarsky doesn't go too deep into their personalities here, so it's very hard to connect with them and care about what they're doing。 My feelings about the artwork in this volume are mixed。 One issue is drawn by the amazing Marco Checchetto and it's absolutely gorgeous, but the rest are drawn by different artist, that are certainly not at the same level。 That being said, the artwork is certainly never bad。 The panel to panel storytelling is always great and very understandable and all the artists are great at drawing exciting fight scenes。Overall, this might not be the best volume of the series, but it's still really great and it makes for a very enjoyable read。9。5/10 。。。more

As we now have not one, two Daredevils, one of which is still masked and serving his prison sentence, whilst the other is taking over the mantle of her predecessor and fighting to protect the streets of Hell’s Kitchen。 Both are struggling in their way about what it means to put on the mask, from Matt Murdock becoming disgruntled with the law during his time at a corrupt prison, whilst Elektra is trying to teach the young Alice to be strong, only for the former to cover her weakness after years o As we now have not one, two Daredevils, one of which is still masked and serving his prison sentence, whilst the other is taking over the mantle of her predecessor and fighting to protect the streets of Hell’s Kitchen。 Both are struggling in their way about what it means to put on the mask, from Matt Murdock becoming disgruntled with the law during his time at a corrupt prison, whilst Elektra is trying to teach the young Alice to be strong, only for the former to cover her weakness after years of being an assassin。Although Chip Zdarsky nails the flawed characterisation of both Daredevils through the trademark inner monologues, he also finds nuance in his supporting cast, from Mayor Wilson Fisk feeling conflicted with his love towards Typhoid Mary, to Matt’s twin brother Mike has worries towards his partnership towards Butch, Fisk’s other son。 Zdarsky knows how to use everyone, whether it is through dialogue or action, and though you get the sense the story isn’t quite over with these final issues on the Daredevil title, the times they are a-changing。As Zdarsky has been telling a crime epic, which is what you usually expect with Daredevil, but since this is the Marvel universe, you could go a little crazy with an element of sci-fi。 And so with Bullseye on the loose, which is a tradition in Daredevil comics, not only does Elektra have to face off against him, she also has to fight some clones of Bullseye, which were created as a way for Fisk to somehow him, failing spectacularly。 As silly as it sounds, given Marvel’s previous reputation with clone storylines, it somehow works in how the action informs the characters。Speaking of the action, there are four artists involved throughout these six issues, all of which are coloured by Marcio Menyz, whose moody colouring creates a consistency for this volume。 With so much going on with multiple characters and two major action sequences – Elektra versus Bullseyes and Matt’s epic prison riot – all the artists are doing terrific work, though some are better than others。 Regular artist Marco Checchetto only does one issue here and it’s clearly the best art with more detailed characters and dynamic panel layouts。 I would’ve loved to see more from Checchetto, who is committed to the Marvel event storyline, Devil’s Reign。From the final issue, which perhaps wraps things up a little too quickly, there is certainly a change in the status quo with a number of characters, but the story is far from over as Zdarsky is currently writing the aforementioned Devil’s Reign and Daredevil: Woman Without Fear。 Whilst we’re expected Zdarsky and Checchetto to return with a new Daredevil #1 later this year, this initial run ends on a high note, honouring what makes the Man Without Fear special and taking him and his cast into new directions。 。。。more

I see the Daredevil in prison arc as less of a good story event, and more an exploration of themes and character。 After returning to the DD identity after End of Hell and allowing himself to undergo the repercussions of what he had done as the vigilante in Truth/Dare, this volume (and the previous) show Matt trying to right some of the wrongs inherent in the system, and it works well with what had been established for Matt's character in the rest of this run。 Elektra's storyline in her struggles I see the Daredevil in prison arc as less of a good story event, and more an exploration of themes and character。 After returning to the DD identity after End of Hell and allowing himself to undergo the repercussions of what he had done as the vigilante in Truth/Dare, this volume (and the previous) show Matt trying to right some of the wrongs inherent in the system, and it works well with what had been established for Matt's character in the rest of this run。 Elektra's storyline in her struggles in the Daredevil mantle are as well very interesting and well handled by Zdarsky's script, and I did enjoy Wilson Fisk and Typhoid Mary's relationship, perhaps to a lesser extent。 Saying all this, I think that it doesn't come together as kinetically and fluidly as before in this run。 I've said before, I think this run really peaks in End of Hell, and whilst all events afterwards are interesting, with highlights definitely in the last volume with moments like the poisoned prison fight, its a shame that it has to be a step down from that。Saying all this, however, I'm very glad that Zdarsky and Checchetto get to stay on the Daredevil book for a little longer and I'm incredibly excited to read Devil's Reign and future stories from these two。 。。。more
