No longer the Devil of Hell's Kitchen, Matt Murdock builds a new life using only his skills as a lawyer in his ongoing fight for justice; but when Wilson Fisk returns to New York City with sights set to new heights, Matt knows peace cannot last.

Matt Murdock takes on a new client, Hector Ayala; this local hero from the Heights is more than he claims to be; Fisk learns the power of optics in his new and very public role.

The trial of Hector Ayala begins; Matt Murdock takes on the system to defend an innocent man; Wilson Fisk's old business associates grow restless in their desire to claim his vacant mantle as Kingpin of Crime.

Fisk's former associates start a gang war for his territories; Cherry manages to get Torres to appear at Hector's trial; intimidated by the police, he commits perjury by declaring that he had never been assaulted.

A day in the life of Matt Murdock gets unexpectedly intense, forcing him to team up with a familiar face.

A masked serial killer by the name Muse terrorizes the streets of New York, turning victims into grotesque works of street art; Matt Murdock and Mayor Fisk both know: the city needs a savior.
