Daredevil is my favorite Marvel character of all time.

Re-reading Bendis run solidifies that for me. It's actually Bendis run that GOT me into the character. And while I love many other runs (Brubaker, Miller, Chips, ect...) This run is just the one I can't get enough of. From the court room drama issues, to the excellent look into a man on the brink of having a mental breakdown, to the fights being so damn brutal, to creating this dark and almost myth like scarecrow in Daredevil himself. Everything about this run works for me.

This run actually starts off with a dream-like story about a boy who has PDST over the events that occurred in front of him. We soon jump into a mobster story about taking out not only the Kingpin, but finding out who Matt is, and going after him too. To Matt dealing with being outted to the world and working his way around it. To finally Matt becoming a Kingpin like figure in the underground world of crime.

It's epic, touching, sad, dark, and everything I love about Daredevil as a character wrapped up in one. If Frank Miller established this darker and more ruthless Daredevil, Bendis to me expanded this great character work on top of giving excellent character motivation and moments.

A 5 out of 5.
