![]() It's sad when old villains are forgotten about because modern writers don't know what to do with them. There's some of his older villains here, that you don't see much of anymore, and that's kinda cool. There are caption boxes of Matt talking about putting more fear into his enemies, trying to get that darker tone, but then the art is like something from an all ages comic. It's as if the writer had a darker tone in mind, but the artwork doesn't match up to that. The Daredevil volume has Daredevil still starting out, people mistaking him for Spider-man, and him still wearing the red and yellow costume. The only reason I've read this (and I'll be reading the Ant-Man one next) is because they're on Marvel Unlimited, so why not? Long time readers aren't interested because they've read these stories before (since they're mainly set in the early years of the character), and I don't think they're good enough to really pull new fans in and keep them reading more. I don't think Marvels Season One graphic Novel plan ever really caught on that well. I didn't like it very much, but maybe hardcore DD fans will get more out of it than I did. He's a dork! Sure, they'll be great friends, but no way in hell is that happening. How are they both in love with her after two weeks?! And what kind of an idiot buys a girl a ring when (apparently) they aren't even really dating? Oh, and speaking of Foggy? No way is a girl like Karen going on a date with him. The Foggy/Karen/Matt love triangle was dumb. Why did the priest go into hiding? Why did the politician come up with an elaborate scheme to take his church building? Why did they kidnap Foggy, for that matter? It would have been easier (and smarter) to just kill him. If you're gonna beat him up, at least beat him for something he's done recently. Yeah, he's a bad guy now, but I actually felt sorry for him when DD was kicking the shit out of him. He starts beating the hell out of him with his ninja walking stick and yelling, HE WAS STILL YOUR FATHER!, like some moron. In my book, the politician gets a pass for killing his old man.īut not in Daredevil's world. 'Cause their father used to beat their mother and the priest.who was evidently in a wheelchair when he was younger? The politician guy killed their father years ago, and his priest went into hiding from his brother. So the priest is the brother of the crooked politician. The main story with the priest and the politician kept me interested, but the ending totally blew. Hope everyone knows I'm a force to be reckoned with now! Oh no! The Matador publicly spanked my ass! Gotta do something big so that everyone will know I'm cool!Īs least the media was here to see me catch the bad guy. I didn't feel bad for him or want to cheer for him, because he seemed so overly concerned with his 'image'. And I guess that was the point, but it wasn't done right. He seemed like a fairly inept crime fighter most of the time. Ok, in it's defense, it seems to be telling the story of a younger less experienced Daredevil.īut in no way did this inspire me to like this character. Panel 3: I'm blind, but now I have super-senses.
