Synopsis for "Brother, Take My Hand!"
While visiting the troops in Vietnam, Daredevil meets with Willie Lincoln, a soldier who was blinded during a tour of duty. When Lincoln tells Daredevil that he used to be a New York cop, but was discharged because he was accused of accepting a bribe, Daredevil suggests that once he gets back stateside Lincoln should look up Matt Murdock and take him on as a lawyer. When Lincoln does return to the States, he does eventually manage to get Murdock as a lawyer, who clears Lincoln's name, and gets him his job back. That night, Matt and Daredevil protect Lincoln from attackers who have come for revenge for his recent victory in the case.
Notes
- Due to the Sliding Timescale of Earth-616, references to the Vietnam police action would have to be considered topical,as the conflict ended long before the Modern Era would begin. The Marvels #1 retcons these events as taking place in Western Sin-Cong.
