About this deal

It’s not that I’m against Silver and Bronze Age creations, I like the silliness of them, their garish costumes and strange motives, but they’re very forgettable and insubstantial.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. I knew that Mark Waid had done a new phase of Daredevil, and it’s 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 read. and that same old "grinnin' in the face of hell" attitude, the Man Without Fear is back in action and leading with his face! His award-winning work with artist Alex Ross, KINGDOM COME, is one of the best-selling graphic novels of all time.Paolo Rivera and Chris Samnee’s art is a particular highlight for me as well, as they did some very innovative and interesting stuff to show how Matt sees the world. The only consolation is York leaves both of them alone for the rest of their education and allows Foggy to pass (albeit while still taking one last petty potshot at Foggy on his way out the door). How the echolocation is represented through the art of Paolo Rivera and Marcos Martin is the best aspect of the book. Rather than representing clients in the courtroom, Matt and Foggy begin to counsel those who are unable to pay for a lawyer, instead choosing to represent themselves. Later on however, Matt soon discovers that there are some mysterious crimes at work in New York City.

But Matt’s can-do attitude carries over to a new business plan in which he and his partner Foggy start a new kind of legal business in which they coach people to represent themselves. With new enemies, new friends and a “grinnin’ in the face of hell” attitude, Mark Waid delivers an Eisner Award-winning run like no other!While Waid is shouldering the writing duties as well as infusing a new attitude into Daredevil, Rivera and Martin apply golden age visuals as well as their own style to create something altogether unique. I did read (among others) some of Conway's, Gerber's, Wolfman's, Shooter's, McKenzie's, Nocenti's, D. With quick wit and different villains than he's used too, Daredevil sure is getting himself into interesting situations.

When the Punisher's new apprentice is cornered by Hornhead, she gives a small rant about how the only people who are actually serious about being heroes are those who've suffered tragedy. I hope you're not suggesting that anyone who's enjoying Waid's run hasn't been exposed to those others you mentioned, because it kind sounds like you're saying "anyone who's read Miller, Bendis, and Brubaker's DD can't possibly like Waid's DD".The battle between Captain America and Daredevil where each are using the other’s weapons was well rendered. The art is truly amazing, mainly featuring the talents of Paolo Rivera and Marcos Martin, as well as Kano, Khoi Pham and Emma Rios. With new enemies, new friends and a "grinnin' in the face of hell" attitude, Mark Waid delivers an Eisner Award-winning run like no other! Matt deduces Steve's uncharacteristic anger is less about Shadowland and more about Steve projecting his guilt and anger over Bucky's trial (in Ed Brubaker's run) and death onto Daredevil.

It culminates in him cheerfully crossing the Moral Event Horizon when he makes Foggy Nelson hang himself just to spite Matt. Even popular runs by Bendis and Brubaker followed the Miller Maxim that Daredevil must be forever picking up the pieces of a shattered life.

Overall, “Daredevil Volume One” is a great volume to read if you are a huge fan of “Daredevil” and if you want to read a comic book that is full of fun and action! With new enemies, new friends and a 'grinnin' in the face of hell' attitude, Mark Waid delivers an Eisner Award-winning run like no other!Not the most well known characters but done so well, making this in multiple ways a very refreshing take on the devil from Hell's Kitchen. Matt and Foggy successfully prove he tried to frame the latter for plagiarism (to get him expelled). Then, Spider-Man and Daredevil team up when Black Cat is arrested and Murdock is the only lawyer who will touch her (her case, we mean).
