Yeah, I don’t think I minded it as much as I was just being reminded of it when I reread the issue for this review. I can think of many much worse trespasses during the Bendis era, and you are right in that this arc deals with the mythology surrounding a living legend. It may very well be that the bomber in this instance has polished the truth of what actually happened a little bit in the light of Matt Murdock’s secret being exposed.

What does bug me (and did throughout Bendis’s run) is the idea that the Kingpin ever suspected that Matt was anything other than a non-powered vigilante who was dedicated enough to fake a major disability to cover his ass. In fact, in Born Again, Fisk admires this amount of dedication in his adversary. Why Bendis would have everyone from SHIELD to the people on the street suddenly know everything about the inner workings (and extent) of Matt’s senses is beyond me. Realistically, not even Matt himself should have a perfect idea of how exactly he does the things he does unless we imagine him going into a doctor’s office asking for an fMRI scan of his brain.

Anyway, thanks for commenting!
