Daredevil Vol. 5 (2015)

The title "DD26" points to an earlier shorthand labeling convention; its catalog trail is "Marvel Comics Collection / Daredevil / 2015 Daredevil Vol. 5," i.e., Marvel's Daredevil Vol. 5 (serialized 2015–2018, 28 issues). This volume is a relaunch from the All-New, All-Different Marvel era, written by Charles Soule—a lawyer by training and therefore especially at home with courtroom drama—with art by Ron Garney, Goran Sudžuka, Phil Noto, and others. The story picks up after Secret Wars: Matt Murdock returns to Hell's Kitchen in New York, his identity and memories having been tampered with, and for the first time he stands on the other side of the law—prosecuting criminals in court as an Assistant District Attorney by day, then enforcing justice in the alleys at night as the Man Without Fear. One major thread follows the new cult leader Tenfingers and his Hand cult in Chinatown, against whom Matt suffers setbacks on both the courtroom and street fronts; another follows the newly introduced hero Blindspot (Samuel Chung), an undocumented Chinese immigrant who fights crime in an invisibility suit, is taken on as Daredevil's protégé, and is thereby drawn into the Hand's bloody ninja war. Elektra, the Punisher, Kingpin, and Muse also appear in turn, and Kingpin's eventual election as Mayor of New York directly sets up the storyline of subsequent writer Chip Zdarsky. The volume's overall tone is colder and harder than Mark Waid's run: the palette leans on black and red, the action is fierce, and the courtroom scenes deal in procedure and power, forming the theme of "how a blind lawyer redefines justice between light and shadow." Note: the specific publisher, publication year, ISBN, and translated title of the Chinese edition cannot be verified from available sources, so those fields are left blank. If you mean issue 26 of a particular Chinese collected edition, please provide the series' official name so it can be pinpointed accurately.
