Summary

This issue is Daredevil Vol. 5 #7 (2015), titled "Elektric Connection Part 2," continuing the bombshell secret revealed at the end of the previous issue. Matt Murdock is now working in New York as a prosecutor while also operating on the streets as Daredevil; a new generation of protege, Blindspot (Sam Chung), is growing under his guidance. This issue centers on Elektra Natchios: the deadliest assassin in Marvel returns to New York, appears in Hell's Kitchen, and tells Matt what she has been searching for—a child never mentioned before. The news forces Matt to reassess the true cost of being "the Man Without Fear" and may even force him to give up his biggest secret. Nightwing, Foggy Nelson, and Night Nurse also appear, further heating up the situation in Hell's Kitchen. This is issue #7 of the series, a single-issue story, an early chapter of the "Back in Black" phase.

Editor's review

查尔斯·索尔接手《夜魔侠》后,把马特·默多克从马克·韦德时代的明亮基调拉回到更阴郁、更具刑侦气质的路线:白天是检察官,夜里是义警,身份的撕扯成为整条主线的底色。第7期是他前期最富情感张力的一期——艾丽卡这条线把「刺客」身上的柔软之处摊开在读者面前,也让马特不得不面对自己一直回避的问题:拯救城市与守护身边人,究竟哪一个更优先。马泰奥·布法尼的画风克制而细腻,面部表情与留白处理得极稳,配合马特·米拉的用色,把地狱厨房的湿冷与压抑具象化。对于想从剧集《夜魔侠》回头读原作的读者,这一阶段是理解马特「换边站」设定的一扇好窗;对老读者而言,这是一段容易被低估、却为后续「死亡」与「至高」篇章埋线的关键过渡。

Reading tips

  1. 建议先读第五卷第1至6期,本期紧接上期结尾的秘密揭示
  2. 可配合《Back in Black》第二卷合订本《Supersonic》一起读,情节更连贯
  3. 留意图中彩色分格边框的用法,那是本阶段美术设计的一个标记
  4. 读完可继续第8期《Blind Man's Bluff》,主线会迅速转入盲点与手合会线
