The Rundown: Matt is put in a difficult position as he faces Wrath and his decision will change everything.
Daredevil finds himself facing off against the demon known as Wrath and the creature gives him a dangerous choice. He can either save his best friend Foggy or his worst enemy Bullseye. While the demon still holds the child Matt has been trying to find, Matt cannot think of another way to stop the demon than by using his anger to fight. A move that will prove costly.
As Wrath continues to taunt Daredevil with his choice, Bullseye tries to make it for him by trying to kill Foggy himself. When that fails, both men are thrown off the roof and Matt must decide who to save. A choice that will change everything about him and his life going forward.
The Story: After following this arc from the beginning, its finale was just okay to me. It wasn’t earth shattering and I wasn’t really expecting it to be, but it ended up feeling more cliché than anything else. After following this arc from Matt’s perspective and experiencing it through his point of view, it felt disappointing that his mind failed him towards the end. Not a bad issue, but definitely didn’t stick the landing of all the threads that had been laid out before.
The Art: Kuder delivers great art throughout the issue. I loved the story visually and there are some intense scenes that only work because of the imagery.
