Daredevil

By legacysword@gmail.com (Kevin) Daredevil #501 marks the first issue of the newest creative team, Andy Diggle and Robert Del La Torre, run on this title. I am not too familiar with Diggle's previous work but I was not very impressed with what he did on Dark Reign: The List–Daredevil one-shot. And after were Ed Brubaker and Mi...

By theothermurdockpapers@gmail.com (Christine) The art, by Billy Tan, is quite competent (not counting the panel where Matt looks like Beavis - or is it Butthead? - from Beavis and Butthead), but doesn't quite suit a Daredevil comic, and probably adds to this particular issue feeling just a little too much like standard superhero fare.

By theothermurdockpapers@gmail.com (Christine) From my own brief experience of working with accessibility issues (which you can read about in my post "How being a Daredevil fan made me better at my job"), I know that lots of people, even in the web design field, are unaware that even people who are totally blind can and do use computers. In f...

By theothermurdockpapers@gmail.com (Christine) The background to these panels is Ben Urich seeking out the "new" armored Daredevil. Matt faked his own death about a dozen issues earlier and he is trying to convince Ben that he is not Matt Murdock. Ben repeats the test he subjected Daredevil to when he first found out who he was: "Make a blind...

By legacysword@gmail.com (Kevin) Writer: Ed Brubaker The Hand council agrees to Matt's terms while Lady Bullseye and Kingpin can't believe what is happening to them and yell at Matt for what he has done. Matt has The Hand ninjas take Lady Bullseye and Kingpin outside.

By theothermurdockpapers@gmail.com (Christine) So, what is the new status quo? Well, Matt Murdock has agreed to command the Hand, a multi-national murderous ninja order whose aims are about as different from his as can be. When Lady Bullseye first offered him the gig back in Daredevil #115, in a move that honestly looked downright silly t...

By theothermurdockpapers@gmail.com (Christine) Among the back-up features is a neat little story by Ann Nocenti that I really enjoyed, even though it is a tad morbid, with some great David Aja art. There is also the reprint of Daredevil #191, which I will have to review separately some time, because it is perhaps my favorite issue of all tim...

By LaRevolucion44@aol.com (Rokk Krinn) Writers: Ed Brubaker Pencils: David Aja Kingpin asks "Why?" Lady Bullseye comments that the Kingpin was naïve if he thought he could walk away from everything. Lady Bullseye says that the reasons for her attack are too numerous to list. However, if Kingpin wants a specific cause then he should ask Daredevil. Lady Bullseye pulls the two swords out of Kingpin's back. Kingpin falls to the floor. Lady Bullseye and the Hand ninjas exit the scene. Brubaker ends Daredevil #116 with a great hook ending. I am excited to see Kingpin make his return to New York City. And I cannot wait to see what plans Brubaker has for Kingpin in this new story arc.   [read the full post]

By theothermurdockpapers@gmail.com (Christine) I think the clues have been there all along that the Hand are on recruitment campaign. They've been testing Matt's friends, and "turning" the Black Tarantula and the White Tiger. While I was somewhat surprised that the big twist consisted of offering Daredevil the leadership of the Hand, my surprise wasn't so much that it went counter to what we've seen before, but that the Hand would actually do that. Or rather, that Brubaker would write a story in which the Hand do that. Granted, this may all make sense further down the line, but right now I have to wonder what strange recruitment strategies they employ or why Daredevil of all people would fit their job description. And, if they bothered doing their research on this guy, they would also know tha...   [read the full post]

By theothermurdockpapers@gmail.com (Christine) Ultimately, I'm looking forward to what lies ahead. Daredevil #115 didn't really do it for me in every respect, but I look at it as a temporary glitch. On the other hand, most of the reviews I've read have been quite positive and the fanboys on CBR seemed to like it fine. Maybe it's just me. Either w...

By theothermurdockpapers@gmail.com (Christine) There are a couple of good reviews out of Daredevil #115 as of this writing. The first one is Comics Bulletin's Dave Wallace and the second is by CBR's James Hunt. Both seem to be hinting at much the same thing: The conclusion of the Lady Bullseye arc is one you didn't see coming, but it is jarring in how it fits (or doesn't fit) with what has gone before while being interesting enough on its own merits to somewhat redeem the inconsistencies. Just to warn everyone, the CBR review does contain one spoiler that you might not want to know about, while the Comics Bulletin review doesn't give too much away. What I do find encouraging is that both reviewers in this case are left hopeful about what the future holds for the book, and that's something to be happy...   [read the full post]

By theothermurdockpapers@gmail.com (Christine) As I alluded to earlier, this is a look at some of the more sizzling images of Matt Murdock to come out of Maleev's tenure as Daredevil artist. While Matt has always been portrayed as being at least moderately attractive, Alex Maleev's realistic style managed to convey the kind of images that lets the reader imagine what the character would realistically look like. And some of the art he produced is of the kind that would literally make you drool. I'll have to whip up some lady eye candy for the straight male readers too, but for now it's all about the title character. Okay, moving on to a beautifully drawn sequence of panels from Daredevil #35, where Matt goes out in costume to defy the journalists camped out outside his home. I like the detail here,...   [read the full post]

By theothermurdockpapers@gmail.com (Christine) The next couple of panels are from the opening page of Daredevil #37 and shows a flashback to a younger Matt, lounging in bed with a certain college girlfriend turned assassin named Elektra Natchios. It's a nicely drawn college-age version of the character, and I happen to know this is a fav...

By theothermurdockpapers@gmail.com (Christine) Daredevil and Lady Bullseye meet for the first time this issue, and that gives us further insight into how she works and just how cold she really is. Through Matt's senses we get another perspective that's less crazy costume (obviously) and more about how her body and mind operate. She's eer...

By noreply@blogger.com (Pat) The story is a continuation from the previous issue, which is one of the problems with doing single issue reviews of Marvel Comics from the Silver Age.

Daredevil #111 Marvel Comics Brubaker, Mann, Gaudiano & Hollingsworth The start of a new arc gains a new reader: me. I read the freebie last month that explained the past four or five arcs of Daredevil and level set the field for new readers. I heard this issue was great so I gave it a shot and I liked it a lot. I didn’t think it was outstanding but I found it to be a really good start to a new arc. The story appears to be simple enough. Matt and Dakota North, private eye, spend a little too much time together while Lady Bullseye watches Matt and some others reporting her findings to those who are ready to take them down. That’s really the whole story. However, the story goes deeper than just that.   [read the full post]

By noreply@blogger.com (Rokk Krinn) Writer: Ed Brubaker Pencils: Clay Mann Lady Bullseye thinks how Bullseye was different. That Bullseye never noticed that side of their art. That Bullseye just moved forward never looking back. That Bullseye was like a force of nature.

By noreply@blogger.com (Rokk Krinn) The Good: Daredevil #111 was another good read. Brubaker does a fine job kicking off this new story arc involving Lady Bullseye. Daredevil was a well crafted story. Brubaker cranks out some strong writing by delivering a technically ...
