Got this one almost as a whim on my way out of my LCS, curious about the new writer and direction, not in the least interested in this List nonsense. I am glad I did.
First, this is clearly the first issue of Diggle's run and not just a little one off. The massacre, the trials, Kingpin already manipulating things from afar. All of this looks to be key to the understanding the next run. The preview for #501 seems to confirm that.
Second of all I found the story gripping. Matt is undergoing trials of pain and combat with the Hand when Bullseye shows up, not to kill him (yet anyway) but to let his oldest enemy know that the rules have changed. Then he blows up and entire building of people who had just moments before looked up, eyes glistening with hope, that Daredevil was there to help them. That is cold, baby, cold. And it is not being brutal for the simple sake of brutality. This massacre will clearly be fresh on Murdock's mind as he decides exactly how he should run the Hand. How much of his soul will he be willing to give up to stop men like Bullseye and Norman Osborn.
I liked the Tan art fine. It was clean and pretty at spots. I don't think it is best suited for a Daredevil comic, but he is not going to be the regular artist, who will be Robeto de la Torre. I thought his stuff looked great, although I am not sure I need to see Daredevil on a gothic rooftop in the rain again, but you just got to get those out of the system. If they put me on Daredevil I would start there, too. It would also look like a four year old had drawn it and I would be fired and possibly sued, but that is another story altogether.
