Daredevil vol. 4 #13 by Mark Waid, Chris Samnee, Matthew Wilson, and Joe Caramagna

I've talked before about the degree to which Kirsten, as a character, is in conversation with the tradition of women in Daredevil comics—and, in fact, with the history of superhero love interests as a whole, which is a theme Mark Waid tends to enjoy examining (for my Flash readers: Kirsten shares many traits with Waid's rendition of Linda Park). She is independent, she is strong-willed, and she takes up space within the story beyond the boundaries of her relationship with the hero. She even says aloud, directly on-panel, that she does not want to be relegated to the role of "Daredevil's girlfriend"—meaning, of course, within her life and world, but it's also a statement of intent from the creative team. Here, we get possibly my favorite story element highlighting this autonomy: the fact that Kirsten has her own enemies from her life as a successful lawyer, long before she met Matt.

This particular issue is all about the echoes of Matt's bloody dating history and how he is choosing to deal with that now that he is in a relationship again, particularly now that he has a public identity. Another theme of this run is Matt healing and trying to move on from past traumas, and one way it does this is through light-hearted, jokey elements being overlaid onto very serious topics: Matt's famous "I'm Not Daredevil" shirt from volume 3 is one example, and this scene is another. I've also talked before about the particular parallels between Kirsten and Milla (another character who was, at least initially, created to engage with and subvert DD love interest tropes). Kirsten is doing something here that we saw Milla do as well: downplaying the seriousness of Matt's fears for her safety. There are two levels to this: an understanding of why Matt is so afraid (Kirsten wasn't there, but we, having read those issues, know exactly what he is scared of), but also a joy, at least for me, in something Kirsten always does so well, which is to undermine Matt's self-important posturing, drag him down off his Angsting Perch (you know the one), and force him to genuinely engage with life and the people around him. Kirsten is not supposed to be thrilled to have had her life threatened, that is not in the established script, and it upsets Matt, but the fact of the matter is that she's fine (in a way Milla was not allowed to be), and even better, she's had the chance to get one up on Matt by being attacked by someone whose interest is in her, not him! I love Kirsten having her own arch-foe. I love how smug she is about it. I want her to have a whole rogues gallery.

Two (2) Matties because I like him
