    Kingpins clutches

    Well I have to tell you Frank Miller brings his game up a notch with every issue of DareDevil. I am rereading Frank Millers famous run on Marvel Digital Comics unlimited. The color is amazing. The art is raw and energetic. Frank tells the story with some humor. Turk I have to say is too much. I even feel for Josie whose bar window has patrons crashing thru it more than she likes. Kingpins right hand man Lynch  is seconds away from having his neck snapped for trying the Kingpins patience. DareDevil incognito takes a page from Bullseye when he throws a pen in the barrel of the gun as he works undercover here to find and get a job with the Kingpin.  The issue reads quick as we see DD take on Kingpin which is the highlight of the issue and at the conclusion, it is not what we expect but leads to more more great storytelling from Frank Miller. This issue is definitely about the Kingpin trying to get his wife back and denying his criminal roots saying at times he will not go back to organized crime. But at the comics end that still remains to be seen.
