Resurrected and brought back from Hell to live life in New York as a preacher leading a youth home of troubled kids, Father Matthew still has the skills acquired but is only dimly aware of a former life that’s about to crash down upon him when Elektra (who has been keeping tabs on him and secretly funding the orphanage) is possessed by a demon and sent after him.

Despite the tease that we might see Avengers involvement, there are no mighty heroes in Daredevil #7, instead Daredevil puts a handful of his recruits to good use in preventing police and a corrupt CEO from evicting families from their tenement. A large part of the comic also deals with Matt Murdock’s unwillingness to accept fate or destiny and not walk into what he fears is a trap laid by The Hand.

Remember that time Iron Man failed to stop Elektra from killing the President of the United States? Yeah… Okay, so it wasn’t really the President, he’d been replaced by some kind of Hand puppet to do really bad things, but I’m guessing this isn’t going to look to good in the press (even if the non-President’s body does dissipate into dust on-camera proving he wasn’t the real President).

After stalling, or getting sidetracked with other matters, Matt Murdock‘s battle with the hand has finally begun. Having married Elektra in a Fist ceremony and unlocked new-found power for his followers, Daredevil turns to more recruiting as the Fist infiltrates the Myrmidon and frees any willing to join him. Along the way Daredevil will also need to deal with US Agent and various soldiers before the Fist disappears back into the either but not without leaving a message for Matt’s old friends.

Matt Murdock is dead to the world as Daredevil (who no one remembers is Matt Murdock) and Elektra prepare to leave New York and take their fight to the Hand. Before leaving the city, however, Daredevil spends one final night fighting crime with Spider-Man and tying up various loose ends. There’s not as much Daredevil/Spidey interaction as I would have liked here (especially between two men who have made deals with devils to hide their secret identities), but the pairing still works.
