Matt Murdock: Daredevil Appreciation 2021

[Hol]

Hey all! I haven't read Daredevil since Waids run. Not even sure if I finished his second run so I have to go back to that...but my question is...is Matts ID a secret again? I read the first few issues of Bendis Defenders last night and it is a major point of the story that Luke and Jessica don't know Daredevils secret identity. Did I miss something?

[gohei_]

Hahahaha I absolutely started laughing out loud at that last page and what became of the prison explosion! Hahahaha please tell me I’m not the only ones who immediately thought of Shadowland!! Hahaha Oh my goodness.

Haha yeah that was my initial thought as well.

Regarding todays issue, spoilers:

Bullseye clones you say? I have no real opinion on this right now. Could be interesting. The ending on the other hand? Not sure I would like an evil Matt right now, if that's what they're going for. Let's see what happens.

This run is becoming a joke. A gorgeously drawn joke, but seriously? This again? Hahaha Zdarsky really gives no f$&s!

[Nanashi]

Haha yeah that was my initial thought as well.

I just can’t believe the brazenness of it all. It’s utterly laughable! Haha

[Nanashi]

And now that Zdarsky’s mentioned Red Batman on Twitter I’m wondering what he’s going to recycle from Waids run now. Haha

Yes it is. This happened during Soule’s run.

[Hol]

Yes it is. This happened during Soule’s run.

Oh how did it happen?

[Nanashi]

Oh how did it happen?

The Purple Children used a machine that amplified their powers to make the world forget.

Read it too and

spoilers:

1.The Elektra vs Bullseye fight was good, it made perfect sense.She held her own but she would loose against 3. 2.I love that she called for help, Matt wouldn't have thought of it or felt it was right.Elektra's the queen of strategy.No shame in cheating when cheated on in war. 3.I love Zdarsky's respect for Spidey(Tony as well), even though we don't see him which I wish we did.Seeing Tony(and Elektra too) have respect for him as they should is just amazing. 4.She's gonna get the upgrade teased for Matt.Cool, can't wait. 5.DD going evil, I mean shadowland 2.0. 5.So we are getting DD vs Elektra right?That seems to be the set up here.One of them will die by the end, maybe it's Matt's twin as people said.

You’re fifth point would be an interesting development if Matt remains as is and he becomes the final boss, so to speak, that she has to take down. I doubt it, though. Not impossible but I don’t think that development will move beyond the prison. Good points all around, too.

I like Zdarsky's run but sometimes it feels like a recycling of old ideas. We've seen it somewhere else. "Starting new page", Kingpin as mayor (it happened before, right?), Matt in jail, now Shadowland... well Elektra as DD is new, that for sure.

Yes. It’s been a nigh constant recycling of well worn or recent ideas with today’s being yet another blatant example.

Since Zdarsky likely won’t stay on until 700 I do wonder if they’ll do something for 650 even if just an oversized issue for commemoration. I’d like to think Checchetto has been working on that all this time which is why he hasn’t been on the last several issues. Or not. I guess we’ll find out soon enough.

Very possible.

[Nanashi]

All right. I liked this issue. The fight between Bullseye and Elektra was excellent as well as her scene with Tony. Those were the most enjoyable latex of issue plus the revelation of his Bullseye is doing what he’s doing. The rest with Fisk and Izzy was okay. Kingpin this tun seems oscillate between the well know and feared Kingpin of crime and a powerless whimp. In this issue was a some if both and I think it’s obvious which kingpin is in which scene. It appears Mary may make a move soon which is exciting. Perhaps she’ll help Elektra take down Bullseye? I’ve already posted my reaction to the final page. It definitely didn’t ruin a good issue especially with Checchetto’s astonishing art elevating everything. His Elektra and Mary are especially beautifully done but no surprise there. Everything here by Checchetto is beautifully done. So good issue despite the disappointment of what became of the prison explosion last issue. Next issue may yet do well with that.
