Daredevil, Volume 4 by Mark Waid6/20/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() Even after defeating Bullseye, Matt still feels the pull of hopelessness and Waid finally gives him a reason: he has depression. Defeating Ikari and Lady Bullseye, Matt and Foggy realize the real villain behind everything is Bullseye, who has become completely paralyzed and is seeking revenge against Matt. Matt is eventually beaten by a new villain, Ikari, who has all of Matt's powers, but isn't blind. But the book also introduced Kirsten McDuffie, a new ADA who teases Matt about being Daredevil, and really fun moments like Matt entering a Christmas party with a sweater proclaiming "I Am Not Daredevil." During one crossover with Spider-Man and the Punisher, Daredevil protects a MacGuffin called the Omegadrive from being taken by Black Spectre and other evil organizations. ![]() At one point, Matt's father's remains are dug out by the Mole Man and Matt thinks he's going crazy. Which wasn't to say that the book couldn't get dark: it could and it did. So Mark Waid thought it was time for it to become a bit more fun, so when it was relaunched in volume 3, Waid and artists Marcos Martin, Paolo River, Javier Rodriguez, and Chris Samnee returned the character to his more "swashbuckling" persona. The book had sent Matt Murdock through hell over and over again. From 1998 to 2011, Daredevil had gone to some pretty dark places. ![]()
