The Widow (#61-64)

This was okay. It was cool to see Jigsaw. I like the moments between Widow and Matt.

I'd actually forgotten about this. Jigsaw was cool to see. It helped me get a better understanding of Widow and Daredevil's relationship and of Natasha's character in general. I think the B+ is a fair grade for it. Most of what you read will steer away from the main plot of Matt being outed but somehow it all takes little babysteps toward the bigger picture.

The Universe (#65)

I actually bought this issue at my local bookstore. I paged threw it and the scene with The Punisher and Daredevil really stood out. Their rivalry is one of my favorites. So I picked it up. As I was reading through the series I noticed some moments from this. It was nce to reread it after I read what came before.

[/QUOTE] This was the anniversery issue, correct? The one with Nick Fury, Captain America, Punisher? I really liked this too. Great seeing how much of a respected member Daredevil is within the superhero community.

Sweet. Bendis' run is fun, but not as good as MWoF says it is. Still probably the best thing Bendis has done though that I've read. :D

As long as you think it's good.

I thought the Universe was good but it could have been better, frankly I was a little unhappy that it show the reactions of some villains to DD's outing and there is the mistake of Dr. Strange not knowing Karen Page was dead (highly unlikely). But it was good to see the heroes reactions to DD's outing. I give that issue a B.
 
Golden Age (#66-70)

This was good. I like the Alexander Bont character. I also felt bad for Gladiator. But I thought that Fisk was Kingpin back then too. Umm no big deal I guess. Expect that Matt and Foggy looked the same age in the flashbacks while Bont aged a lot.

B+

Decalogue (#71-75)

This was awesome. The best arc yet. I loved the little demon thing. It scared the **** out of me. I never been scared by a comic before. I like how it was based around the ten commandments.

Now I'm off to read the Murdock Papers.

All caught up :twisted: I thought Golden Age was so much fun. Definitely considered it better than Decalogue. But to each his own.

Decalogue's Alexander Bont was a great great character and it was so sad to see him leave so prematurely. I loved the flashbacks to the golden age and The White Tiger storyline too. One of my favorite arcs in Bendis' run.

Decalogue was cool too. I liked the first two issues better than the rest with Bullet and "The Bomber". Nice nods to Daredevil's past. The Demon was a cool addition. I love the whole "Hand rebel" angle.

Murdock Papers will blow your mind.

I'm pretty pysched you got into it TGO. Very cool.
 
Well you waited for it and here it is.

The Murdock Papers (#76-80) Unfinished

HOLY FREAKIN ****. It was everything. I love seeing all the girlfriends together. The exchanges between Widow and Elektra was cool. Fisk is a crafty bastard. This is how the Kingpin should be written. We he said two people knew. I knew right away that it was Bullseye and Elektra. At the end of issue 78 with the card flying at Elektra's throat was the best part. I was geeking out bad. I like that Bendis refrenced Millar's run on Wolverine with Elektra in charge on the hand now. I didn't expect to see the hand in there now. Awesome. I don't know how he will get out of this one. He needs a good lawyer. Maybe She-Hulk. Another notch on his belt.

A+

Welcome to the darkside :twisted:

Baxter would be able to better guess that. I'd think 4 of Bendis' run. I could be wrong... I should really try to sell my TPB and go for HC.

If you do, let me know. I may be interested.

How many HC's are there collecting all of DD?

One collecting Smith and Mack 's stories, art by Joey Q then 3 collecting Bendis and Maleev starting with Underboss.

Those four would take you up to Golden Age.
 
Now that TGO and I have started reading it, others get interested. :D

Start with Bendis's run. Everything else is boring in my opinion.

Oh, please Spider-Man fought almost all of his entire rogues gallery in Millar's run in MK: Spider-Man, Batman fought almost all of his entire rogues galeery in Hush, Flash fights almost his entire rogues gallery all the time and no one said those things were overkill. As for why the villains would be at Rikers, where else would they go while the Raft is being repaired after Electro's attack? Perhaps that the number of villains I mentioned was too much or perhaps not, but there should a fair number of DD villains (more then just Owl and Hammerhead isn't a DD villain so he doesn't count) after him in prison.

Moved it to a better thread. Hmm... I suppose if it had to be done, this would be the right time for an all out DD vs. his entire rogues. But I find it risky. I think it would have to be executed smoothly.

Furthermore, I have no doubt in my mind that Owl's behind Foggy's death. He's a major player who hasn't done much of anything in TMP and he's got something big planned.

I think we're ahead of ourselves. We still have the end of Bendis' run to look forward too.

Its fun to speculate though, with DD is prison he will need a new supporting cast and why not use the other prisoners, his villains. This more then your average hero vs. his rogues gallery though, Matt is stuck with these people 24/7. However many would either be striped of their devices (Mr. Fear) or have their powers removed (Mr. Hyde, Purple Man) while in prison, so they may not be eager to attack him right away, but they can still interact with him, talk to him, taunt him, etc.

I'm still not sure if its a good idea to kill Foggy though, I wonder if Owl really would be nasty enough to kill him.

You're the guy who wanted the upgrade in their viciousness. I'd say this might turn Owl from the joker you were claiming to a more serious role.

Yeah, but their are ways to due that without offing the supporting cast, like killing strangers. I am just worried that Foggy's death will be nothing but shock value. Besides Foggy is one of the few really good supporting cast mewmebersDD has left, Urich betrayed Matt, so that only leaves Milla left. Soon DD will be known as the Man Without a Supporting Cast.
