A LOT of suspicion is to be had, something just doesn't feel right with Daredevil's actions, but one way or the other, I'm very excited about this arc, and Diggle is one of my fave Marvel writers right now. And, yeah, the art is absolutely gorgeous. Yes, yes, pretty much spot on review, I don’t even think I have anything to add.

Heres a character who has been beaten, broken, and emotionally devastated with countless tragedies for decades of comics now, to the point that he is willing to torture crooks and permanently cripple The Owl. Now, we over a hundred innocents dead because of his refusal to kill, and an army of ninjas at his disposal, Murdock might be willing to go past boundaries he may have denied previously. With any other character, that whole "THE HAND IS THAT CAVE" conversation with Izo would have came off out of character. But with Murdock, it seems real. He one of a handful of heroes that he did kill someone, I would totally understand, especially in the current topsy turvy world where a well-known killer like Norman Osborn is the ruler. This is gonna be a very interesting run, methinks. I was preparing to leave after Bru/Lark's incredible run(especially after the "just-ok" The List special), but the moral questions, fantastic artwork, great characterizations, and interesting storyline possibilities has me interested in the long run.
