Daredevil Epic Collection #16
In "The Raptor," Nomad is pulled into a high-stakes mission with a catch: clear his record by killing the Slug. Sent to Vegas, he stumbles into a web of deception when a chance meeting with a prostitute tied to a double-crossing mobster leads to a brutal clash with both Bushwacker and Deadpool—neither of whom is the target he expected. With the Slug's true whereabouts hidden in a secret villain summit and a baby caught in the crossfire, Nomad must navigate chaos he never saw coming. Written by Fabian Nicieza and illustrated by Pat Olliffe, with inks by Mark McKenna, colors by Steve Mattsson, and letters by Chris Eliopoulos, the cover by Scott McDaniel and Bud LaRosa captures the tension of a man caught between enemies he didn’t know he had.

The government has promised to clear Nomad's criminal record if he is willing to kill the Slug. Jack heads to Vegas to track the villain down. Little does he know that the Slug is attending a super secret meeting of bad guys who are dividing up the Kingpin's empire. Thanks to a chance encounter with a friendly prostitute who has hooked up with a double-dealing mobster and an unfortunate case of mistaken identity, Nomad ends up battling both Bushwacker and Deadpool instead of his main quarry. Bushwacker, who thinks that Bucky is his sister-in-law's abducted kid, shoots Legs and takes the baby.
