Well I'm sure I won't be able to figure out the mystery, but I'm really looking forward to next month's all action issue. This is probably the longest I've stuck with a book in years.
Why aren't you reading Winter Soldier? You should be!

If only Namor hadn't destroyed Wakanda's cure Matt or Foggy could have just called in a favor.
My Heroes For Hire: Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Misty Knight, Colleen Wing, The Falcon, Ant-Man (Scott Lang). White Tiger IV and Powerman would be interns.

I'm not liking the overall tone of the book- "Let's beat the hero down so we can build him back up again"- but I may start reading it again, when waid gets back on the villain train.

Can't wait for these upcoming issues. I have no problem paying 3.99 for issue #26 expecially since it's going to a good cause!

I'm drawing a complete blank as to the villain. I've been reading DD for years, but I'm drawing a blank. (Then again, I have trouble remembering what i had for breakfast today.) But that cover shot is amazing: Whoever it is REALLY wants to screw with Matt. They're wearing the Battling Jack Murdock boxing robe, he's got on the Yellow Daredevil suit. I mean, this is going right back to screwing with Matt at the start. I'm so intrigued. All hail Waid & Samnee.
Trust me. I have a plan. -- Daniel Rand, the Immortal Iron Fist

Great interview. I'm really stoked for where the book is heading. I think we're finally back at the greatness of the first ten issues. The Coyote arc was great but the current story just cements it.

Creel and Marko are prefect characters for Samnee to draw.
"Superman, are you really gonna let those drug dealers get away?"
"You bet! See, I'm right HERE, while they... are over THERE."

Sad to hear Foggy has the dreaded C.
''How do you find someone who has spent a lifetime covering his tracks? For some, he was a guardian angel. To others, a ghost who never quite fit in''

It's his dad. Think Darth Vader voice of doom: "Matt....I am your father....."

My guess on the villain: Bullseye.
I know he's dead and all, but there was a pretty big clue in #24:When the photos were being put on the wall they were put in the shape of cross hairs.
Also the solicited cover for #27 has an image of what appears to be Foggy standing on concentric circles that could be the symbol of DD radar, but could also be the symbol for Bullseye.
Obviously the biggest flaw here is that Bullseye is dead. Not such a problem in the MU, but difficult to overcome with out a dodgy retcon like Harry Osbournes body swap et al (tho this villain is currently living in some kind of recuperative vessel/ iron lung).
Also Waid is a very smart writer and, while he may well come up with a solution, it is entirely possible that the Bullseye clues are red herrings designed to anticipate people like me that want the ol Bullseye v DD magic back.
