It’s no wonder I keep seeing people say that Zdarsky’s DD run is phenomenal - because it truly is. This is the best volume I’ve read (so far!) and I am amazed at how Zdarsky wrote the parallels between Fisk and Matt. Both of them are currently struggling with their identity and dealing with forces way larger than they can handle. And of course, I can’t deny the excitement I felt when I read that Spiderman cameo scene. He truly is the best of them all.

The five stars go to mattelektra because I’m obsessed.

Chip Zdarsky is the latest in a long line of writers making Daredevil the most consistently high quality book in Big Two comics. This volume continues the long story he’s telling, and he’s joined this time by two of the best artists in comics, Jorge Forbes and Marco Checchetto. Their styles are very different, which does make it a little jarring, but the quality of each makes it more bearable than the typical trade with various artists.

Daredevil: Through Hell collects Daredevil issues #11-15 by Chip Zdarksy with art by Marco Checchetto and Franceso Mobili.

The tear down and rebuild of Daredevil is in full swing as Eleckra helps Matt get his shit together. Fisk finds that he's no longer at the top of the pecking order and doesn't much care for being shat upon and The Owl is running wild without the Kingpin looming over him.

Maco Checchetto is back and kicking ass on art. I love the gritty feel he gives the book. Zdarsky's warring crime families story is heating up and his Owl feels like much less of a joke than a lot of previous incarnations. The interplay between Daredevil and Cole North continues to be my favorite part of the book.

I'm left wondering what else Zdarksy is cooking up with this. It seems Daredevil will probably be back in his familiar costume soon and he'll probably be taking down the Stromwyns, possibly with the help of his greatest enemy.

Daredevil: Through Hell bumps up Zdarksy's Daredevil run a few notches in the Daredevil hierarchy. Five out of five stars.

I loved the writing in this volume. Matt Murdock is still full of Catholic guilt and is going back to his roots. Impending gang war on Hell's Kitchen and Kingpin is struggling with his decision to step down from the underworld.

So glad to be back in this world - this is everything a comic and a Daredevil story should be.
