Ever since Mark Waid started writing Daredevil, the
character has been in a good run. Daredevil and even his supporting cast have
been pretty well developed. I even liked that series has been able to shift
focus on the other characters instead always being Daredevil. Bendis’ Daredevil:
End of Days was another good Daredevil mini-series that made Daredevil into a
legacy type of a character. This mini-series has been pretty good as well. David
Lapham has a really good idea on who the character is. I really don’t know what
the purpose of this series is because there are different arcs and its set in
same time frame as Matt’s Daredevil series. Anyways, I suggest you check out
this series. It’s a pretty good series.
Story
Matt Murdock is talking with his co-workers about a recent court
case. But a little critter runs off with the evidence. Now it’s up to Daredevil
to catch him. Does he fail or succeed?
The Good
I think this was a really good issue. It had great dialogue
with Matt and his co-workers. The action dived in at a good pace and the
interactions/distractions were pretty funny. I was surprise to see humor in
here because Daredevil is rarely a funny character. I even cracked up on Buggit
because he looks like an Oompa Loompa. (Laughs) I’m glad we also get to see
Shocker and the nice art details were great during the scene. The art was what
I really like here even though it was misplaced in some areas. It’s just that
the colors and the electric shocks looked really good.
The Bad
There wasn’t anything bad with this issue. I just think
Daredevil should have called Hank Pym for this situation. But I guess he wasn’t
available and he didn’t want him to get away.
Verdict
This issue deserves a 4/9 out of 5/10 stars. It had great
dialogue and well-paced action. I felt it was surprisingly funny because
Daredevil usually isn’t. So, you will definitely laugh when you read this
issue. The only problem I had was with Daredevil not calling Hank Pym. But
maybe there’s a reason for that. So, I recommend picking this up and continuing
on. I’m definitely hoping to find out more about Buggit in the next issue.
