Daredevil #27

Picking up with Daredevil confronting both Bullseye and Ikari, Daredevil #27 fills in the blanks to Bulleye's transformation from hitman to super-criminal genius in a box before the villain spills how he's put all of Daredevil's nearest and dearest in danger. Thankfully for Matt Murdock's loved ones, he has a few friends of his own.

Closing out the arc you'd expect another big battle between Daredvil and Ikari, especially after Lady Bullseye shows up and decrease the chances of Daredevil surviving the night even further. Writer Mark Waid pulls a bit of a fast one here, by Daredevil finding a way to defeat all three villains by using his brains (and leaving Bulleseye even more of a mess than when the issue started).

Daredevil #27 very much focuses on the hero out-thinking his opponents rather than using his enhanced skill-set to take them down. Because of this, and the quick wrap-up, we're left questioning whether Daredevil can actually beat Ikari and just who that masked man really is. Worth a look.
