Surprisingly of all the Daredevil I've read this year Daredevil by Mark Waid volume two has the darkest element to it. Which is seen in the last two issues when Matt's life is falling apart again.
The volume starts out simple enough. A crossover between three titles, that all come down to the Omega drive Matt had been keeping around his neck. Daredevil, Spidey, and the Punisher all team up. And it's very good especially across three titles I think it holds very well. It doesn't amount to a big end as Matt still has it at the end but lovely characterization and development for Matt. As he tries to do for someone else what he's trying to do for himself. And that is atone.
I don't usually like to talk too much about the plot because the enjoyment of seeing everything unravel is something I myself really enjoy. And I won't talk about everything but by the end of this volume Mark Waid plotting and clever crafting has really fleshed out what this run is about. It's about Matt trying to be better yes, it very much tells us that at every possible turn. But for once it doesn't solely focus on Matt's budding romance or his romantic choices but this one is about the whims and woes of Nelson and Murdock.
And I love it. Some of the ideas don't go as far as I'd like them (or haven't yet) primarily his senses being taken away, I'd have thought that'd go further. But the emotional core of Matt and Foggy is very well developed and I look forward to seeing how it unravels.
The fun is still there. Stilt man shows up and plenty of Avengers show up. It appears as fun as it is but it's surely not as light and fun as everyone makes it out to be. And it's so well plotted and well drawn by a number of artists.
Another Daredevil comic worth everyone's time.
4 stars.

I really liked this, particularly the Daredevil/Spidey teamup. Those two are funny and lively and quippy together. Now that Marvel Studios has rights to Spidey, I'd love to see him make an appearance on Netflix's Daredevil. The Foggy storyline is freaking heartbreaking.
The comic moved forward best during the moments with the Omega Drive and while dealing with Matt's fallout with Foggy. It got a little convoluted at the end with the headless prisoners and Spot.

Perfectly fine superhero fare, but nothing exceptional, either. Black Cat's role in the ongoing story feels tacked on, as well, and the Mole Mna story that breaks up the ongoing plot is…well, there are some ideas worth writing about but the Mole Man's "scheme" is a big misfire.
Overall an okay read, but your average 70s story was more entertaining.
