The Bad: I'm beginning to lose interest in the entire Dakota North/Ben Urich/Fake Daredevil plotline. It is moving terribly slow and I don't think it has been well developed. Maybe now that everything at prison is coming to a head that Brubaker will start to focus on the fake Daredevil plotline more and flesh it out and make it more interesting. But, at this point, the Urich and Dakota scenes were not very interesting. Read Full Review

In The End: Youll learn a lot in this issue of Daredevil. Youll learn that Matt can be pushed to go places he normally wouldnt, though some of you may already know this. Youll learn that as much fun as it may be and as much street cred you might get by mouthing off to the Punisher in front of everyone, the end result could be rather painful and most of you should know this. Youll learn that Michael Lark and Stefano Gaudiano are a fantastic art team that captures the mood and intensity of the writing. You will also learn that Brubaker knows how to pace an extended storyline to keep it fresh and exciting issue after issue. This arc was an excellent time to start picking up Daredevil and as long as Brubaker keeps writing the book, Ill keep buying it. Read Full Review

With a death at the start of the series Brubakers Daredevil draws some similarities to his own Captain America, but dont let that stop you. While a little light on action, this series so far is doing just fine. Next issue is going to be fireworks. Read Full Review

And yet, I dont think Matt is getting out of prison anytime soon. Even after the end of this storyline, I still see Matt in prison for at least another six months. That comes from Ed Brubakers natural pacing and realistic plot devices. Daredevil has been at its best when it was a crime-noir drama. Bendis run was a personal battle between Murdock and the world. Now Brubaker takes us back to the morally grey world on the border between law and crime. Thats where Daredevil is most at home. Read Full Review

The parallels to last weeks Slugfest run deep in that Daredevil #85 is neither a monumental single issue nor a boring yawn-fest; its simply another fulfilling issue that advances the overarching storyline while continuing the trends we have all come to expect from the team of Lark and Brubaker.
