Customer Reviews

Awesome!

The restart of the Daredevil series collected here is awesome! Kevin Smith is PRIMO, and the storyline takes your breath away! A must buy for anyone starting to collect Daredevil or anyone who loves the character!

Wonderful hardback.

Most of the reviews listed for this title aren't accurate at all, since they're for a completely different edition, so I thought I'd chime in.This hardback is part of Marvel's new oversized line. And as I've come to expect, it's of fantastic quality. From the glossy attractive cover to the vibrant coloring of the pages, Daredevil Vol. 1 screams for a spot on anyone's bookshelf or coffee table.As a special treat, the inspiring introduction is written by Tom Sullivan. If the name isn't familiar to you, he's a blind man that has managed to lead a very productive life despite his disability. From skiing to bungie-jumping, Mr. Sullivan has happily experienced what life has to offer, blind or not. He was also a consultant on the Daredevil movie.Included in this hardback are the issues of Daredevil #1-11, and #13-15, the Guardian Devil (Smith/Quesada) and Parts of a Hole (Mack/Quesada) storylines. Nothing will probably ever compare to Miller's sagas (Elektra, Born Again, Man Without Fear), but these are wonderful reads, with a huge impact on recent continuity. Also, while Smith's Guardian Devil storyline seems like a rehash of the Elektra saga, there's still an incredible emotional impact, that's still being discussed today (see Daredevil: Yellow for more).Many cameos are present, including a touching appearance by Spider-man, who is one of the few people that can truly understand what Matt has gone through at the end of Guardian Devil.The "special features" featured after the collected issues are lacking, though that's hardly something to dock the book for. And the few sketches and artwork included are great to see. Still, comments from the writers/artists would have been wonderful.Pick this edition up soon, or risk not being able to find it later. Besides, sales for this and Vol 2 could inspire Marvel to release the Miller sagas as oversized hardcovers. ;)

Kevin Smith's Daredevil is a modern masterpiece!

For anyone who is a longtime fan of DD, or even for those just discovering the "man without fear," this collection is a MUST HAVE! Kevin Smith's writing is nothing short of Brilliant, and is perfectly complemented by Quesada and Palmiotti's moody art! Check it out!

As good as The Watchmen or Dark Knight Returns!

I picked up this series a couple of days ago and I can not say enough about it. The art is truly breathtaking and the inking is equally (if not even more) stunning. But the story is the meat for the mind to chew on, too. Kevin Smith, this is perhaps the best series I have read in the past year. This reminds me what this genre is capable of doing. You involve spirituality, romance, loyalty, betrayal... and it is all so well-written.Do yourself a favor. BUY THIS ISSUE! It will NOT disappoint you, I believe.
