Waid's rebirth of the character is fresh, bright, readable, and enjoyable. I love the way he pits Daredevil right into the lion's den of being in the crosshairs of five different crime organizations. He highlights DD's smarts and de - emphasizes the darker parts of the character...at least for now...
The kickoff to a new era for the Man Without Fear. Waid acknowledges the past and the way the character has been put through hell for years, but injects a healthy dose of fun and a zest for life into his writing. Pairing him off against some unlikely adversaries is interesting too. The art is mostly suited to the story, serving it well.
Daredevil? You mean the brooding, depressing, blind guy that was in that cruddy movie a few years back? Nope, not anymore. Mark Waid takes the character in a new, swashbuckling, fun direction that's a perfect jumping-on point for newcomers or for old fans (like me) who need a breath of fresh air for a character with far too much baggage. Strap yourself in and get ready to have some fun. (Hey, do you remember when comic books were fun? Me neither. Which is why you need to pick this title up.)
These are excellent Daredvil comics that return the character to the kind of fun-loving, man-without-fear adventures I remember from when I first read Daredevil (before Frank Miller). The artwork by various artists reflects the fun and excitement. Daredevil has come a long way since the early 80's and Mark Waid doesn't ignore that history, he uses it to motivate DD's actions. Waid doesn't shy away from dark aspects of a story, either. The danger is often palpable as Daredevil is so fearless it seems he could have a deathwish. Not only did Waid bring the fun back to the character, he brought me back to the comic. I can't wait to see where he takes Daredevil.
Drawings are amateurish.
A welcome return of Daredevil being fun again. This require no prior knowledge of DD and is a great starting point for anyone curious about him.
