Story
In this story, Matt Murdoch and Electra Nachios are students at Columbia University , where a romantic relationship developed between young people. Murdoch is blind and is studying law . Throughout the story, Electra and her roommates are harassed by a wealthy young man, Trey Langstrom, until Electra, as a martial artist , repels him. In retaliation, Trey hires thugs who destroy her fatherβs dry cleaning, and at the same time his business. Matt also owns martial arts and has superhuman feelings (compensating for loss of vision). He conducts an independent investigation and displays the mercenaries in clean water. However, he fails to convince Electra to abandon her revenge. While he reveals his identity to her, Electra forces him to choose between love and duty. He chooses the second, which leads to the separation of the couple.
