This was a personal story for Daredevil as a mentor (and, more importantly, as a failed mentor). The ending was about this failure and how he was unable to get any closure from it.

I agree. Conversely, one could argue that up until this arc Sam was a lousy student as all he'd managed to do previously was fall off a building, have his arm broken by Elektra, and save a bunch of people from Tenfingers' henchpeople because one of said henchpeople happened to be his mom. Maybe he's just not cut out for superhero stuff?

Ultimately, though, I believe that even if Daredevil and Blindspot were more experienced in their respective roles Muse would have still prevailed pulling something like this since he's such an impulsive and violent psychopath. He can't be easily stalled or distracted like some other villains.

Ok. Really? Nobody is seeing the awful possibility of this so called good writer creating a Daredevil of his own, after this "dramatic" issue?

All the more reason to buy the book and its upcoming spinoffs in my opinion. Soule doesn't write in a vacuum, and I'd personally much rather have Marvel think they need to keep Matt around to anchor the Daredevil line.

The drama and suspense was great but the ending was a complete letdown. What could've been a strong ending to a dark arc gets invalidated instead by yet another interference from the almighty Inhumans.

3 stars.

Yessir. Charles Soule's track record on Daredevil for ending stories in a satisfying way is abysmal. He's like a gymnast who, when he's up on the parallel bars is impressive enough, and then he dismounts onto his head.
