   Enjoying being back home in New York, Daredevil takes the opportunity to chase down a criminal just to enjoy Manhattan's Upper East Side. Being constantly reacquainted with a place, even something as new as a flagpole, could one day save his life. He follows him into an apartment and the fight suddenly becomes 1 on 4. And Daredevil couldn't be happier.
   Back at the DA office, Samuel Chung AKA Blindspot walks in to ask Matt Murdock if there's anything else he needs. He has a big night planned, and Matt can tell he's planning on going back out as Blindspot even though he's still nursing a healing broken arm. Matt lets him go, and even offers him his temp job on a permanant basis. Sam is beyond grateful. Matt's night however is just beginning, as he's got night court. Before the other attorneys leave for the night, they offer Matt a little hazing in return for his quick rise through the DA's office. Back in his defense attorney days, he'd be knocking back a few cocktails already at Del Frisco's. Now he spends his evenings as a servant of the lower courts.
   In Chinatown, Blindspot dons his costume for the first time in awhile. He picks up a card with his name on it at the shrine, and when he walks into the destination, he finds something horrifying. Freaking out, he calls Daredevil telling him he's found a body. Matt asks his paralegal to horse trade with the other attorneys in exchange for an emergency night off, and he runs to Sam's aid. When he gets there, a massive mural painted in blood on the wall gets his attention. A body, holding a paintbrush and buckets full of blood, awaits the duo. Blindspot asks if they should call the cops and Daredevil tells him they should, offering to call it in as an anonymous tip if it would keep Blindspot's cover from being blown. Not to mention get some undeserved attention to his illegal immigrant status.
   Daredevil runs his fingers on the wall. He tells Blindspot it's not just the blood of one person. By his count, which could admittingly be off by one or two, he senses it's the blood of at least 113 people. And with that, we're left to be continued.
   Charles Soule is still crushing this series and it's getting better and better. Ron Garney's artwork pops off the page, incredibly using few colors and doing more with what it takes some penciler/inker teams using a whole palette. Another chapter in the life of the man without fear, and again it doesn't disappoint. I give it an 8/10.
