Well, so there are a couple things I was wondering if people could help me find the trades for a couple things. Probably the easier of the two, but I was wondering if someone could tell me what trades collect Iron Fist's tenure as Daredevil and what would be a good general jumping on point for Daredevil. The second thing is that after seeing Baron Zemo in the Thunderbolts tie-in to Civil War, I was fascinated with his "Superiortiy through altruism" belief, and was curious if there were any particular trades that could show his growth into that belief.
I thank you for any assistance, in advance.

Iron Fist was really only covering as Daredevil within the main Civil War book (I think Matt was out of the country when Civil War happened). In #87 of Daredevil's book, it was addressed, but outside of those two...I can't think of anything dealing with it particularly.

As for Zemo, he's been M.I.A. since Civil War ended. There was a mini (Born Better) focusing specifically on him. Since then, nothing. But he's coming back in Captain America #606.

There are a handful of instances in "The Devil, Inside and Out" trade (collecting issues #82-87) where we see Danny disguised as Daredevil running around Hell's Kitchen while Matt's in prison. Not until the last issue of the arc, however, are we made aware it's actually Danny, so unless you're a die-hard Iron Fist fan who has to have every single one of his appearances, I'd say they're more or less irrelevant.

As for a good jumping-on point for Daredevil, currently I'm recommending Daredevil #111 (what would now be #491 under the reverted numbering), the beginning of the "Lady Bullseye" arc. If that's too far back for you, though, then you can probably get away with starting out at #500, provided you aren't opposed to looking up some backstory on the Internet. And if time and money aren't an issue for you, then starting from #1 of Vol. 2 is always a worthwhile investment, though not mandatory.

Thanks, I did not realize that Iron Fist's time as Daredevil was so little and insignificant, and when it comes to jumping on to Daredevil, I am mainly a trade waiter, so I often like to start series that have a few trades to keep me going for a while, I shall look into that Lady Bullseye, or maybe see how far back in Brubaker's run I can find.
And as for Zemo, my question was more about his character development pre-CW, not where he has been since, though that miniseries always slips my mind.

So, thanks for both of the replies.
