Daredevil 38

Another great issue by Mr Bendis with great fill-in atrwork from Manuel Gutierrez. But...

Who doesn't know his right from his left? Matt Murdock, Luke Cage or Manuel Gutierrez? A small mistake but a really dumb one... Two editors on the title and nobody noticed that?

Two editors cannot fix one stupid reader.

That was one of the cleverest scenes ever in a Daredevil story. Matt's radar-sensitive hearing could pick up the heart pounding in the guy on Cage's right, and when Cage pointed the phone toward 'his right', Matt could tell on the other end of the phone line that he was supposed to point to his 'other right'.

Brilliant work by Bendis.

Easy there. Even if I was wrong, a stupide mistake doesn't make a reader a stupide one.

I got all that. It's not the first time we see that joke. It's far from being that clever. Whenever somebody points to his left when you tell him to point to his right, you tell him: 'your other right'. But the way the scene was depicted, Cage was really already pointing to his right. So the guy Matt was talking about was really on Cage's left side.

: for Matt to achieve this.

I really wouldn't let such a minor inconsistency bother me

Oh, you're right. I was wrong, I'm sorry for snapping. I was so impressed with the clever use of Matt's radar-sensitive hearing over the phone that I never bothered to look at the order in which the three gangbangers were sitting on the couch.

Yes, now that you have me straightened out, my guess would be that Gutierrez goofed a bit.
