   Matt Murdock's fake twin brother holds up Foggy demanding he call his old partner. The problem is that he calls Daredevil who smashes in the window. Mike demands his baton and takes Foggy away at gunpoint.

"Gimme one of dem cool sticks you got!"

   As the pretend twin and the lawyer ride around town, they're spotted by Bushwacker, who mistakenly believes killing them will be rewarded by the Kingpin. The car bursts into flames but when the criminal approaches them, Mike deploys the baton and they're able to escape.

Your brother Matt could have "seen" that coming a mile away.

   Finally the two brothers get a chance to meet up and talk. Frank McGee and Reader surveil them from afar, waiting on Matt's signal to erase the fake doppelganger. When he never gets the signal, he goes in but is stopped by Murdock. Mike then accuses them of setting him up. He runs away and heads straight to Mayor Wilson Fisk's office.

"Wait - Aren't you Vince D'anofrio?

   The issue wraps with him asking Fisk for work. Suspecting it's a ruse, the mayor sends him away, but he's later approached by Parker Robbins - aka The Hood. What does the villain have up his sleeve? We'll have to find out as this issue is left to be continued.

"Hi. I'm Little Red Riding Hood..."

   So I'm not sure when Daredevil is going to reboot past it's Legacy numbering but if I had to guess, it's somewhere around the corner. Therefore, enjoy Charles Soule on this book while you still can because what he and Phil Noto are putting together is stellar. I give this one an 8/10.
