3 decent/good stories wrapped up in a Omnibus.

The fist one I reviewed a long time ago. It is the story by Kevin Smith and like I stated there, it is solid and interesting though too wordy at times. It has the makings of a great daredevil story and some moments are wonderful (The Spider-Man moment is perfect) but at same time the villain reveal and why is cliche as hell and the "Everyone has Aids" of the late 80's is back with a vengeance.

The second story about Echo is about the same. Some cool ideas and moments, best when Echo and Daredevil work together or in regular civilian clothing talking to each other. But the Kingpin as the ultimate schemer was already done before and better. And the art had keep flipping back and forth for a weirdo combo.

The last story is "Father" written by Quesada and I was a bit surprised the story wasn't bad. The dialogue between characters, Matt missing his father, and the overall Noir feel of the storytelling were all solid. However the art was pretty shit. I hated the way Daredevil looked, like some jacked up roid raged monster. Way different than any other interpretation and not in a good way. Also the motorcycle villains felt wack.

So yeah the good and bad with this collection. I wanted it mostly to read before I re-read all of Bendis Daredevil run soon. But overall it was decent. A 3 out of 5. I can see why Bendis came on and changed the game for Daredevil.
