Review/plot:
Daredevil has recently had a concussion and a broken arm.

And while Matt was in Japan recently, Foggy Nelson angered some people by putting them out of business while working on a case, and they are now out to kill him.

Luckily, the Black Widow is still in town.

After catching the suspects she brings them to Daredevil to use his patented heartbeat lie detector. But it doesn't work this time because two of the suspects have heart conditions. So for once, Daredevil uses his sense of smell to solve a crime.

I don't believe for a minute that the Black Widow would ever make such a horrible joke, even in her head.

I appreciate a good Black Widow solo story now and again. One odd thing - she uses a computer whiz kid called Fred the Nerd for information. I hope this wasn't an attempt to set her own series with this guy as a supporting character.
