The Punisher's accused of Kingpin's murder in a new Daredevil novel

-  STEPHEN JEWELL

COINCIDING WITH Daredevil: Born Again season two, the Man Without Fear is headlining the second salvo from Penguin Random House’s Marvel Crime line, following on from Lisa Jewell’s 2025 Jessica Jones novel, Breaking The Dark. Written by Alex Segura – whose 2020 murder mystery Secret Identity and its 2024 sequel Alter Ego centred on a fictitious comics company – Enemy Of My Enemy is an ideal introduction for those who have only watched Matt Murdock on the small screen.

“With a book like this, featuring a character that readers know from multiple media such as comics and television, you want to give them an iconic version of the character,” Segura tells Red Alert. “You want a familiar foundation which, for me, means Matt working as a lawyer who becomes Daredevil, who works with Foggy Nelson and who mourns past relationships and struggles with his mistakes.”
