I had same view as yours. I rated higher because of art which looks damn good. Looking back, Bullseye loockdown is definitely a parallel to COVID Lockdown. A lockdown not shown in any other book. Wierd.

Wait, so is Matt's plan hinging on Kingpin's son assuming that Daredevil disguised himself as Matt Murdock pretending to be Mike Murdock? Am I reading this right? Seems more likely that Matt just outed his secret identity to his newest foe right off the bat for no reason...
I am interested in this Guardian Angel dude though, what's his deal?

This was awful from start to finish, at least the Daredevil parts. The whole "re-cid" (recidivist) drug that makes the prisoners antisocial and violent just so they can come back is cringey and very, very idiotic. It's not like the people ending up there were the most responsible citizens in the first place. This victim mentality is nauseously obnoxious. Then there's Cole North who blatantly says more

"LOCKDOWN" CONTINUES AS BULLSEYE REIGNS OVER NYC!
• The penultimate chapter of "Lockdown" brings twists, turns, bodies and unexpected allies.
• You're not going to want to miss THE NEXT INSTALLMENT OF THIS EISNER-NOMINATED EPIC!
Rated T+
I mean, I saw it from the first issue, it was pretty obvious but people here called me insane because apparently if you try to read the messages that writers put between the lines you're nuts. Oh well. I've seen this happening more than once in comics but it was usually just artists drawing masks on characters' faces in situations when they weren't really necessary. Apparently Chip went all in.
What I don't get is why would you be so sadistic to remind people of all this horror instead of helping them escape it? We deal with this daily, we need to try to escape from it at least in fiction, why would you be so petty to remind people of this even in something they read mostly to escape from it. I just don't get it, you'd have to be a pretty shitty person, from my point of view, to do that.

"LOCKDOWN" CONTINUES!
• Elektra faces her greatest challenge as DAREDEVIL yet, as a serial killer is on the loose in Manhattan and killing innocent people.
• But even the deadliest assassin in the Marvel Universe is at somewhat of a loss, because this killer can be in more than one place at one time. A team? A mutant? Or somethin...
