for all you non-comics-readin' cats who may have seen that crappy daredevil movie and think you know what's up...you.don't.
Daredevil has been one of the best comics on the planet for a few years now. under the watchful eye of writer Brian Michael Bendis (you gotta say all three names...) and artist Alex Maleev, the Kingpin was assasinated, DD's secret I.D. was outted in the tabloids, he (as blind lawyer Matt Murdock) denied it, and sued the tabloids, crushed his enemies and, oh yeah: Daredevil took over as the new Kingpin of Hell's Kitchen!
if you think that spoils the book, YOU'RE WRONG!!
that's the tip of the iceberg...
Daredevil/matt murdock is the biggest badass in comics (yeah, even more than batman)! if you don't believe me, cop the DD graphic novels by Bendis and Maleev (start with "Out")...
now the bad news is, Bendis and Maleev have left the comic... the good news is Ed Brubaker and Michael Lark are in the house(fresh off their award-winning run on DC's Gotham Central), and if you think they are letting up on the Man Without Fear, you're wrong (again!). don't believe me? how's this: Foggy Nelson, Matt's law partner and best friend? Dead. Matt is locked up in Ryker's with all the scumbags he locked up... and he's still denying he's daredevil, and he hasn't even broke a freakin' sweat!
artist michael lark lives here in dallas, so i'ma try and get an interview... try to read up on daredevil by then...
holla!
samax.
