    Summary

    For once, Matt Murdock is actually enjoying his life. The law firm Nelson & Murdock is going strong, he's happily dating Karen Page, and he has a pretty amazing new intern working for him—Peter Parker, who always seems to be hiding something. All in all, Matt's happy.

    It's only a matter of time before Wilson Fisk tears it all down.

    As the Kingpin amasses power after the blip, everything that Matt holds dear—his life, his love, his friends—lies in the balance. If he wants to keep everything together... he'll have to let the Devil out once again.

    -----

    "Let every man, woman, and child who dies at my hands," Fisk began, then raised his voice higher. Matt winced. "Let their blood be on your head."

    The smell of crusting blood and stitching filled Matt's nose. His ribs ached with every breath. There was nothing but the pain, the swelling and the searing, the agony of Fisk's own handiwork. Matt clenched his fists.

    "And there will be blood, Mr. Murdock. When this city is in my hands... there will be more blood than even you can atone for."

    Summary

    The sounds of laughter and drinking floods Matt’s ears. It’s almost like nothing is wrong. He can hear himself talking to Karen, joking about how Foggy would never be able to get someone like Kirsten. Listens to clinking bottles and traffic speeding by as Foggy heads outside to take a phone call. It’s the first time he’s heard Foggy’s voice in so long, and it’s like music to his ears.

    Matt’s grief only gets worse after an encounter with The Void. He sees Frank about it.

    Summary

    ARTEMIS JAY CONNOR has never lived without a war.

    Even as a girl, only nineteen years old, when she dressed in her father's clothes to serve her country.

    Everyone said the same thing: Communism was an evil that had to be stopped; these were the Cold War years. Dangerous times. If a great man like President Kennedy could be shot in broad daylight by a Red in Dallas, how could any American feel safe? Everyone agreed that communism couldn't be allowed to flourish in Asia, and Vietnam was the place to stop it.

    Decades later, Artemis fought in the War on Terror as the new Captain America, until Steve Rogers came back onto the scene in 2012 and she passed the mantle back. She worked alongside S.H.I.E.L.D because she had nothing—no home, no family left—but her best friends 67' Chevy Impala that she treats as if he's coming back for it. It was Nick Fury who offered her purpose and a chance to exorcise her demons, and to be more than the empty ghost casing that could take a punch, and fight battles that others never could.

    Summary

    Clint didn't do it.

    There's nothing that he could have done to stop it either. He has no idea how someone stole one of his arrows--or that they'd plan to target one of his teammates with it. Thankfully, there's one lawyer that's more than willing to help: Matthew Murdock.

    Together they'll clear Clint's name and perhaps uncover some hidden feelings along the way.

    Summary

    Matt Murdock's life had slowly started to fall apart again. He thought he had most of everything figured out. A good life with someone he cared about all until that someone disappeared entirely. It would be a common occurrence, until it dragged on for months on end. Leaving Matt to assume that he's dead.

    Marc Spector has been missing for the past two years. Leaving behind a small happy life that he had built during The Blip--including the people closest to him. Steven Grant, all the while, had to pick up the pieces of his life after The Blip. While coping with the time that's passed, he returned "home" to London, where he found a job at The National Art Museum.

    Summary

    You and Matt had stopped trying.

    Summary

    Matt Murdock never believed in arranged marriages—until he agreed to one. To protect a women’s shelter and the woman who runs it, he strikes a dangerous deal with her father, a man whose morality is as murky as Hell’s Kitchen itself.

    She’s softer than he expected. Kinder. And nothing like the family she comes from.

    But Matt knows that in a world where nothing is truly free, even kindness can be a weapon.

    She’s an enigma. A mystery wrapped in quiet warmth and hidden shadows.

    Summary

    Ten years of parades behind him, and this was the first one Foggy had walked hand-in-hand with the person he’d always wanted beside him. He was smiling so hard now his cheeks ached, the corners of his mouth tugging toward his ears like they were trying to prove a point.
    Pride had always been home for him– where he could be loud, be whole, be surrounded by people who got it. But this year? This year, Pride felt like belonging.

    Or: Matt Murdock attends his first Pride Parade, embraces his true self, and encounters his drag queen doppelgänger.

    Summary

    Matt Murdock has a problem: his mission partner is brilliant, unpredictable, and has a habit of bringing yo-yos to crime scenes. She also makes his enhanced senses go haywire in the best possible way, which is definitely not conducive to staying focused on actual detective work.

    When she shows up for their next undercover operation in a dress that wasn't part of his carefully planned wardrobe selection, Matt realizes that some missions are doomed from the start—and he's perfectly okay with that.

    Or: The one where Foggy has been placing bets on how long it would take Matt to crack, and the gala they're supposed to infiltrate becomes decidedly less important than what's happening in Matt's kitchen.

    Summary

    Matt Murdock is in trouble and there's only one person he can turn to. It's easier than it should be for him to throw himself on Frank's non-existent mercy.

    Even as Matt stood there, head tilting left and right, mouth open as he sent out small sounds to re-calibrate himself, Frank's pleasure responses were firing off as though Matt had his mouth on him.

    "You're drooling, Red."

    Matt clenched his jaw, wiping his hand over his mouth, clearing away the mess he'd made of himself. It was in his beard, sticky and wet.
