  1. I am way behind on reading Daredevil.

    Maybe I’ll catch up this summer.

  2. I keep wanting to check this out, but two years have been leading to this? C’mon, give me a good jumping on point.

    The TPB’s seem to come out pretty slowly for this book, too.

    • Heh. I feel like four times in the last ten months a DD issue has billed itself as “it’s all been leading up to this!” If I remember right, the Coyote stuff last year was thought to be the end/revelation of Waid’s first long plotline… but then they just incorporated Coyote into a bigger story… And then Ikari seemed like he was the Big Bad… but then it turned out that he was working for someone.

      Not complaining, though. I love this stuff. It’d probably be worth it to read the whole run all at once.

    • you can jump in at any time. The water’s great!

  3. Very excited to see Daredevil v. Ikari II. That and how Bullseye can still be compelling in a fight considering he’s a shell of his former self.

  4. What an awesome series. Too bad I can’t find issues 1 through 10 🙁

  5. So a barrel rolling into a post knocked the whole building down?….right…

  6. Finally, the payoff. Waid was really masterful here. Issues 1-27 are essentially just one long story leading to this finale, and it was well worth it. Daredevil is my #2 favorite of all time, and this over-arching arc, and even this mini-arc, rank among the best Daredevil has ever had. Just really thrilled to have been reading these as they came out.

  7. Solid ending to a great arc. I love the twist with the ‘agents’ tracking Murdock’s friends and the final fight with Ikari was great! I think it all wraps up a bit too nicely but hey, that kind of have been Waid’s M.O. since taking over the character. Art by Samnee is still pretty damn good.

    4/5

  8. This week has been an embarrassment of riches with all the great books coming out. Perfect as Daredevil is, he’s had stiff competition for POTW. It’s tough to make a decision. But I’m glad it’s so difficult!

    • I know! I read some amazing comics last night, I’m not even going to choose a POTW this week because it has to be a tie between a few issues.

  9. I’m suffering from what we call around these parts Brubakercap Syndrome; When a book is so good for so long that there’s nothing left to do but grunt out “This book good.” like some kind of comic-reading neandarthal.

    Waid has really captured lightning with this title, and he stuck the landing of this arc like DD himself.

  10. I need to read a big stack of Daredevil.

    Stat!

  11. Good wrap up to this story that has been going on forever. I’m kind of excited for a new story arc now though.
