Daredevil #601

In Daredevil #601, Matt Murdock—now a suspect in a high-profile attack—finds himself handcuffed in a police van, only to learn he’s been named mayor of New York after the Hand’s brutal assault on Mayor Fisk. With the city still under siege by ninjas and his own freedom at stake, Daredevil must break free and step into a role far beyond the streets. Written by Charles Soule and illustrated by Mike Henderson, with colors by Matt Milla and letters by Clayton Cowles, this pivotal issue sees the hero confront a new kind of battle—leading a city in chaos, all while the Hand’s shadow looms large. The cover, by Chris Sprouse and Karl Story, captures the moment’s intensity.
