Yeah, this was very boring and pretty bad. I haven't been the biggest fan of Zdarsky's run but at least he managed here and there to create an entertaining story even if the basis for it was a stupid one. This, right here, is just a lame copy of the Civil War. Say what you want about Millar, at least he was original. Zdarsky just plagiarizes him with a very low-effort comic. Also, some of the lines were very, very stupid. For example, Fisk's line that "nobody else knows your true Achille's heel: your guilt". Lol, EVERYBODY knows Daredevil's weakness is his guilt, it's basically his signature at this point, that was such a dumb line. And of course, the cringiest line is, not at all surprisingly, about cops because Zdarsky really has an obsession with that: "yOu GoT a BaDgE nOw, ShOcKeR, yOu JuSt GrAdUaTeD fRoM tRaSh To OfFiCiAl TrAsH". That Chip is insane I already knew, I blame the editors for this, too.

There are so many wrong things here. For example, why does U.S. Agent fight on Fisk's side? Yeah, he's a hothead, but he's always been on the heroes' side, there's no fucking way he would side with the villains. I'm pretty sure Zdarsky just doesn't understand the character and he's using him like this for political reasons. And man, that Miles Morales costume is garbage. Honestly, what was wrong with his previous costume? It looked very nice, it suited him. This one is just plain awful. Just a prediction: Tony Stark as mayor is a red herring, Luke Cage will get the job. A guy like Zdarsky wouldn't dare put a billionaire as mayor, he hates them too much for that.

The only thing I liked is how he writes Fisk. I don't buy that he resists Kilgrave, but everything else with him was decent. Too little, too late. more
