and Daredevil (who they no longer remember is the same person) at the same time. And, I just--thanks for admitting that you've now gaslighted every person you were ever intimate with who knew your secret identity, Matt. There are hints that he's gone through with the mind-wipe for some reason or plan he's got cooking, but ugh. What he's done to everyone in his life is NOT the action of a hero in my mind, and I hate it. I'll keep reading this series, but I'm probably going to be seething at least a little bit the entire time. Show Less

So many people liked this, but I did not.
I want to blow giant raspberries at this comic.
The first half of the comic, with elektra, was interesting but it had one particular trope in comics that I just really, really, really, REALLY hate. Like, really. I hate it. Ugh. It ruined the chemistry of
Spiderman makes an appearance, which is fun. But also the whole comic was just really weak in general and I just didn't get a lot of the plot points. The characters were well-formed but I couldn't get over the camp, one-size-fits-all solutions with plot points like that.
SIGH.
