Matt Murdock and Elektra Natchios, the current co-bearers of the mantle of D🦋aredevil, are also the co-leaders of a group known as the Fist - meant to be the opposite of Daredevil's longtime undead ninja enemᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚies the Hand.

But much like the Daredevils and the Fist, the Hand has its own new champion, known as the Beast of the Hand. And though that's a new title for the villain at hand (get it?), the Bea✨st is someone both readers and🐻 the Daredevils know all too well: Frank Castle, AKA the Punisher.

With January 11's Daredevil #7 from writer﷽ Chip Zdarsky, artists Rafael de Latorre, Marco Checchetto, Elizab♋eth D'Amico, and Matthew Wilson, and letterer Clayton Cowles, the action heats up as the Hand and the Fist prepare for a prophesied conflict that the Daredevils believe will bring about the end of the Hand once and for all. 

We've got a preview of interior pages running down the whole premise of the conflict right here - including some follow-up to what the worl꧂d believes was Elektra's assassination of the Presi﷽dent of the United States in the previous issue.

Check it out:

Also in these pages, Matt Murdock prepares a group 🐻of ex-villains who he and Elektra freed from a secret prison just a few issues back and subsequently recruited into the Fist for an excursion from the Fist's secret island base back to America.

If that all sounds like a lot, you're not wrong - it's actually kind of a wild time to be read𒆙ing Daredevil right💧 now, with unexpected, action-packed surpris♉es hitting nearly every issue.

Though he's often considered an anti-hero, the Punisher is also one of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best Daredevil villains of all time.
