It has been a year since Daredevil proclaimed himself the new Kingpin of Hell's Kitchen, and Ben Urich fills in a shadowed figure about the events of that time period. Matt has effectively renovated his borough of New York and kept crime at bay. He has weathered the harsh criticism of his super-heroic peers. But he ends up facing the Yakuza, who feel that they can take down one lone man and claim the Kingpin's old territory as their own.
