    Really enjoyed this last issue. It may be my favorite thus far in Zdarsky's run.

    First, I have really enjoyed how Zdarky has handled Matt's faith. I thought the conversation with Reed Richards was great as well as the conversation with the nun. I really feel that Matt is looking for purpose and struggling with what he should be doing to help others. The scene where he falls into the rain and hears the voices of everyone I felt was really powerful. It kind of reminded me a bit of the conversation Matt and Foggy had in Season 1 of the Netflix series, in that Matt can't help but hearing all the people calling out for help.

    Second, when Matt jumped back into action I noticed that he seemed to be not fighting as aggressively, focusing on going for pain points instead of trying to pummel them into oblivion. It almost feels like Matt is almost becoming "reborn" as Daredevil by going back to a look similar to his Miller-esque origin and starting from the beginning.

    Lastly, this issue really highlighted both Matt's virtues and his flaws which is what the best Daredevil arcs do. As the nun said to him, he is a smart and kind man that is driven by the need to want to help others and make Hell's Kitchen safe. However, particularly when his at a low point, makes bad decisions when he comes to his relationships with women. This issue highlighted both of these really well, he both a sinner and saint. The one thing I do hope though is that nothing tragic happens to Mindy. While I was so happy to see Kristen's relationship end with Matt in way that didn't leave her either dead or in a horrible place I still would like to avoid continuing the trend of horrible things happening to the women that get involved with Matt.

    Both Zardasky Spec and Life Story were dissapointed for me. But i have been impressed with his DD run so far, it has a better opening arc than Soule, the change of artwork has been a dissapointment, but is tolerable (at least Chechetto would come back in the next arc). Hopefully i would just get better as thing go on.

    I quite enjoyed this issue of DD as it got into deep theological waters. And Sharma's art is gorgeous...much more refined than issue 6.
    While we saw it coming from a mile away, I was a tad disappointed by the ending, though I'm sure it will add to the drama going forward.

    Looking online the consensus seems to be that it's garbage lol.
    IIRC, one critic expressed disbelief when a blind victim fought back against her attacker. Other than that, I thought the story was fine. Might even be essential reading for those interested in the fate of Vanessa Fisk, which is continued from Miller's run.

    I remember enjoying the story quite a bit. But it's hard for me to say no to Miller and Sienkiewicz. Certainly, garbage is too strong a word.

    Hmm, I see. Where is this story placed, chronologically?

    Love and War takes place after Daredevil #180 (from Frank Miller's run).

    The exact placement isn't terribly important - as long as it takes place before Born Again. The placement I saw that works mostly the best is right after #218. The only real reason to put it during Denny O'Neil's run (prior to #222) is that Foggy has a mustache.

    I thought Lalit was doing a great job and would have liked to see him finish out this arc.

    I’d have liked for the previous artist to finish the arc too but Fornes is more than welcome all the same.

    So yeah, this issue was pretty intense if you ask me. Really good.
    Art-wise though this was the lowest so far. Chechetto is back next issue right?
