I'm at a point with Daredevil where I can honestly say I have no idea where things are going. Diggle is building up several different plot points and characters which are regularly converging as this arc progresses. Daredevil is very much in charge of the Hand at this point and seems to have embraced the job of juggling the organisation's needs with his own. He alludes to plans he has in mind for the coming months which hint at some significant developments to come. Not all the surprises are out of the bag yet. At the same time Wislon Fisk is beginning to reclaim his own position and, possibly for the first time, they are very much mirror versions of each other. They each have the beginnings of empires which they control, with powerful right hand men/women, and their activities very much reflect each other. It's an interesting situation for their relationship to be in and marks it out from their past history.
The end of the story is significant to me, in that Daredevil is holding large numbers of HAMMER troops prisoners in the sewers, with every intention of procuring more. Personally I'd prefer less Osborne/HAMMER, as there's plenty of other things happening here and we don't need them. More than that though, there is this part of me that questions if this is at all keeping with Matt's character, this action seems just so drastic. At the same time though, it's original and manages to keep me guessing throughout. Matt's stopped moping and he's being decisive and taking a stand. It's a nice change.
The art is good, although I think the colours are a little garish at times. The pencils are flowing and have some nice details. The script is weak in places, with Matt speachifying in a most un-Daredevil way during a fight sequence. It stands out quite sorely at that point.
However, the good far outweighs the bad. It lacks some of the subtlety or elegance of Brubaker and Lark, but it's very much it's own beast for which Diggle out to be praised. It's got a nice episodic feel, keeping the reader on their toes and keen to see where he takes things next. Breaking new ground on this book always seems hard given the runs we've had in the past, but at this point the team are giving us something which feels fresh and takes some chances.
Art: 3 - Good
