One would think so, but they haven't directly said this in the new series.
But he is back in New York?
Its one of the things I want to be retconned. Go back to Pre-Waid status. Rumors that he is Daredevil but dont let him admit it. I really disliked that move and the change of the location.
I'm only now catching up with the relaunched Marvel books (Following a final issue of Secret Wars that was much better than it had any right to be), and I seriously, seriously hate the big dump that's once again been taken on the X-Men books. Terrible new status quo that retreads the '198' garbage and new series that are just awful (Uncanny and Extraordinary especially). I can't tell you how annoyed I am about that really great Sinister reinvention Gillen did being thrown away.
Going to try some Avengers books next. Hopefully the Mark Waid book is at least decent.

It is said that Daredevil has had this great run all the way from Bendis to Waid that was so great-Shadowland excluded-and now it's just really boring. No Kirsten, Foggy doesn't want anything to do with him, etc.

It starts a bit slowly. It only started to really click with me during #4.
Agreed-it's very good at that point and I can't wait to see how this all pays off.
Avengers, New Avengers and Ultimates are all worth reading. Skip Uncanny Avengers.
Oh and you might want to take a look at Uncanny Inhumans, it's been excellent so far.

Uncanny Inhumans has probably been my most pleasant surprise to come out of ANAD. It's a terrific book.
You should read Vision, that book is mindblowing.

The thing with Waid is that he's a good enough writer to make a solid book when he's not at the top of his game, or just setting things up. That's kind of what happened with the first few issues of Avengers, but as of last issue, he's on the right track.
I always liken him to Busiek in that regard.
And yeah, I second Uncanny Inhumans.

Oh I love Vision, and many other books, I just didn't expect I'd ever be so into an Inhumans book.

This is the real bummer for me too. I sort of blame the Netflix show's popularity on the regression. I miss Kirsten most of all. And the book having an actual color palette.
I third Uncanny Inhumans. A pleasant surprise of the new books.

Just got Marvel unlimited so here we go

Hail, peons, for I have come as ambassador from the great and bountiful Blueberry Butt Explosion
Just FYI, Unlimited is 6 months behind at all times. It's not the best way to stay up on current comics.

I've only read Avengers so far, but it was very very solid. The characters are coming into their own and start having good chemistry.
I also like Waid's fights and how he resolves them using comic book logic.
Overall, this was a pretty good arc that shows this team works well and can give us a good Avengers book.

Great issue. I love this book-its always over way too fast. This is a really great team.
The best part is the actual pounds of salt that line caused. People actually saying shit like "How can an editor let this happen?".

Karnak is still amazing.
The Mutie Lover persecution complex that's risen up in the past few years is one of the most consistently entertaining things about reading Marvel these days. The rest of the Marvel Universe had to play second fiddle to the X-Men for years, they can take a seat for a little bit.
I remember seeing a bunch of people melt down over a panel of someone being ungrateful towards being saved by a Mutant when ANAD launched, because it was Marvel treating the X-Men like shit. You know, in that book that's supposed to feel bad in-universe, with a franchise of character's whose whole pitch is protecting a world that fears and hates them. Crazy.

Oh, I'm pleased to hear that! The first issue didn't do much for me so I dropped it, but I love the character. This is a good excuse to give it another shot.
This books seems like a dream for furrysVenom Space Knight continues to be a lot of fun.
Standoff starts today. We already had one issue, but that felt more like setup than anything else. This issue really felt like the beginning of the story proper and boy is it great so far.
It actually makes me curious to read the new Captain America: Steve Rogers that Spencer is writing. I totally wasn't before.
I like the conflict and I'm curious to see all the players.
Separately - I really enjoyed Spider-Man #2 and felt it was much stronger than the first outing.

Just an FYI, in last week's Daredevil Matt mentions that he made the entire world forget he was Daredevil. But obviously they haven't said how yet.
is...is that a space panda?
he traded his relationship with Kirsten for it with Mephisto, thats why Kirsten is gone
First we had Civil War 2, now One More Day 2

5 month delay for three pages with no words. I'll wait for a tradeback.

I liked Standoff. From that prologue a couple of weeks ago, I thought the basic setting was interesting, but this issue exposed well the actual premise of the arc, and I could see it being a good event. Hell, there are some similarities to what's been described of CW2, and I'm already assuming Standoff will be better than Civil War 2.
I guess I'm expecting something like Original Sin : not great but solidly built and interesting.
The only other book I've read so far is Spider-Man #2, and I liked it at a lot. This might also be my favorite looking current Marvel book (along OML).

Ah, wonderful.
Really love this, I just hope Wilson Fisk is still aware and there are rumors.
Sell me on it. Whats the hook/so good about it?
Last I read she tangled with
Bor the first King of Asgard
Standoff is alright, but I definitely can't get excited about it. So far it honestly feels like it could have worked as a story arc in Captain America (though I'm curious to see if they can justify bringing in the Avengers on a storytelling basis).
Spider-Man #2 was awesome, though. I really liked Miles' discomfort with being "the black Spider-Man" and all... definitely raised some good questions.

Unrelated but your favorite character showed up in the season of USM. I got a whole review ready of that shit.
