Such a breath of fresh air after the garbage that was Andy Diggle's run. Waid takes Daredevil back into the light (albeit a little abruptly) for 6 very fun, stylish issues.The art is very specific, which may be a weird way to describe it. But I like that Rivera is actually going for something unique. It's got some Tim Sale mixed in with some more classic John Byrne style stuff, and comes across a little more classy than previous rough, noirish Daredevil art.Reading this made me miss the harshThis is the kind of stuff that makes comic fans a bunch of disgruntled malcontents who can never be happy. Ive ranted before about how Marvel has made a hash out of it's volumes and numbering systems making it increasingly difficult for someone working through the trade collections to read stuff in order. I knew that Mark Waid had done a new phase of Daredevil, and its something I was curious about so when I ran across this collection labeled Volume 1 at the library, I grabbed it and gave it a
Frank Miller might just become a forgotten thing of the past if Mark Waid keeps up this kind of work on DD. I'd counted Waid out years ago, when he was doing all that work for Crossgen, but it looks like I couldn't have been more wrong. This is just too good a book to be true. Not that I'm comparing them to one another, they aren't comparable in any way other than their brilliance. Frank Miller turned DD into a seedy, gritty, dark, avenging anti-hero only a few steps away from the ledge that
Mark Waids' run on Daredevil is an interesting divergence for the character but one which was probably necessary in the long run. Daredevil is infamous as one of the grittier characters in the Marvel universe and probably the only one who can really lay a claim to that title aside from the Punisher. He's foot firmly in the MCU unlike Frank Castle, though, as he's someone you can depict fighting ninjas or supervillains which always feels weird when the Punisher is involved.Basically, as Waid says
I wanted to like this more than I did. However, I started liking it more towards the end of the volume...I think it's when I got adjusted to this Daredevil not being flying fists and fury. The art also seems a little odd, like it's going for 1970s retro yet with day-glo colours. I haven't read enough DD to have a good handle on things, I only read a few of the Brubaker volumes, and I'm always wanting to get more into Daredevil.That being said, I think this is a great start. Matt Murdock is one
In this revamp Mark Waid rejects the popular version of Daredevil as this overly dark and gritty character and returns him to his 1960s roots with a carefree attitude, smiling as he takes down bad guys, and basically being an upbeat and cheerful sort of chap who enjoys being both Matt Murdock and Daredevil. This is a refreshing take on the character especially as dark and gritty is really something thats run its course in superhero comics and is generally something Im sick of reading about.
What I liked about this story was 1) The art of Rivera/Martin2) Matt taking on the young blind boy as a client3) Klaw and the confrontation with him when DD (view spoiler)[gets trapped (hide spoiler)]I picked this book up out of continuity and need to go back and read about when Matt was (view spoiler)[exposed as DD (hide spoiler)] as this story continues after that. I would like to read the story arc of when (view spoiler)[his identity got exposed (hide spoiler)] leading into him dealing with
