Charles Soule and Daredevil is one of the great comic symbioses at the moment, and so it was only logical to see him also taking on this crossover with "The Punisher". And the stakes are even a bit higher this time, as the Daredevil/Punisher dynamic was one of the sole highlight of a more than mediocre second season of Netflix' Daredevil.
But what we get here is an almost flawless experience. Soule shines again with his ability to write dialogues that are both witty and nuanced, and his depiction of the Daredevil/Punisher relationship finds the perfect balance between adverseness and mutual respect. It's only the Punisher's reliance on a vast array of gadgets that feels slightly out of place in the overall context.
Artist Szymon Kudranski really knows how to stage a super hero, as it's particularly the transformation from Murdock to Daredevil that strikes with its sheer visual power and dynamic. His execution of the car chase sequence is simply breathtaking, while Jim Charalampidis' impressive grey color schemes lend the comic a sombre and threatening atmosphere.
Daredevil/The Punisher #1 is an amazing achievement throughout, made possible by great contributions by the whole team behind it.
9/10
