WARNING: The following contains spoilers for Daredevil #26 by Chip Zdarsky, Marco Checchetto, Mike Hawthorne, Adriano Di Benedetto & VC's Clayton Cowles, on sale now.

As the King in Black crossover descends on the Marvel Universe, Daredevil finds himself in prison for accidentally killing a man. He wanted to prove that no one was above the law, not even a superhero. While this was met with skepticism by some and bewilderment by many, he made it clear that he wanted to stick by his morals.

Daredevil also made it clear that he wanted to spend his time in prison the same as any other inmate, albeit with a mask on to protect his identity. This has caused some problems with his fellow inmates, but he just found out he has more to fear than his fellow inmates. As Daredevil #26 reveals, it turns out the warden also holds a grudge against the Man Without Fear because of Deadpool's past.

Daredevil and Warden Hollis

The newest issue started with Daredevil sitting in the prison's common area, silently listening to everyone around him. Since he can't reveal to anyone that he is blind, he turns away books and TV and ignores the painting classes. Instead, he listens to the stories of regret, tales of bravado and the sadness of lost loves and hard lives. However, what he didn't realize was that he was "creeping everyone out." He took an earful from another inmate, who reminded Daredevil that he was wearing a mask, so he could leave and continue his life as if nothing happened, but that everyone else there didn't share that luxury.

The inmate also told Daredevil that he knew he would get out early, even though Daredevil said he planned to serve his entire two-year term and wanted to be treated no differently than anyone else.  When the guards came and split them up, they informed the inmate that he would have to continue his speech later because the warden wanted to see him. Daredevil realized that he had a real enemy in prison: the warden himself. When Daredevil admitted that he didn't want special treatment, the warden introduced himself as Mr. Hollis. Daredevil realized that this was the father of former A.D.A. Mason Hollis, the villain known as Crime-Wave. Daredevil helped put his son away, and Hollis informed Daredevil that he would be brought to justice, just like his son.

Daredevil Crimewave

Daredevil immediately realized he was not getting out of prison early unless it was in a body bag. Daredevil has a lot to fear from Crime-Wave's father, considering his history with his son. Crime-Wave was a villain from 1969's Daredevil #59-60 by Roy Thomas, Gene Colan, Syd Shores & Artie Simek, where small-time criminals were leaning on business owners and extorting money from them for protection. These criminals worked for a mysterious villain known as Crime-Wave. At the time, Foggy Nelson was the district attorney, and his A.D.A. was Mason Hollis, who would soon reveal himself to be Crime-Wave.

Crime-Wave put a hit out on a blind police officer named Willie Lincoln that learned after he learned where the villain's hideout was. Daredevil battled the hitman sent to kill Lincoln, then turned his attention to finding the criminal mastermind. It turned out that this was all tied to Foggy's problems with his A.D.A., who was trying to ruin his life and sabotage his career to take the job for himself. When he found him that Crime-Wave was trying to blackmail Foggy's ex-fiance into helping frame him for bribery, and everything fell into place. Foggy showed up with the police and helped stop Crime-Wave.

Warden Hollis said that his son had a "psychotic break" as Crime-Wave. That clearly wasn't what happened, as Mason Hollis was leading his own gang of criminals in an attempt to take over the head D.A. job for himself. Hollis seems oblivious to his son's criminal activities and claims he holds no ill will, but Daredevil knows the truth and realizes that he has a dangerous enemy holding his life in his hands.
