Daredevil - Vol 1 - #237 - 1986 - Context - (FN+)

A raw and highly charged street-level drama that beautifully showcases the complex moral fiber of Hell's Kitchen. Written by the socially conscious Ann Nocenti and brought to life by the artistic team of Louis Williams and legendary Marvel inker Al Williamson, Daredevil #237 acts as a gripping bridge in the post-Born Again era. "The Devil You Know" dives deep into the psychology of vigilantism, public perception, and the heavy burden Matt Murdock carries as he tries to protect a neighbourhood that is actively eating itself alive.

Matt Murdock is running himself ragged trying to keep the peace in Hell's Kitchen. The neighbourhood is stuck in a dangerous economic depression, and the rising tide of urban decay has pushed the local youth into a state of volatile desperation. The central conflict ignites when a group of frustrated, disillusioned street kids decide to take the law into their own hands, forming a ruthless vigilante group to violently purge their blocks of local drug dealers and petty criminals.
