    Daredevil

    Character » Daredevil appears in 4762 issues.

    As a child, Matt Murdock was blinded by radioactive waste while trying to save an elderly stranger about to get hit by a truck carrying the dangerous material. In turn, his other senses were heightened to superhuman sharpness and he gained a form of "radar sense". By day, he is a successful trial lawyer; but by night, he guards Hell's Kitchen as Daredevil: the Man Without Fear.

    I've read Miller, Bendis, Brubaker, and Waid. What next?

    I've read all of the 'essential' Daredevil runs. What now?

    Nocenti? Smith? Diggle? Maybe check out some mini series like Daredevil: Yellow or Daredevil: End of Days.

    @sprior93: I've already read Yellow, End of Days, and Guardian Devil, and I've heard a lot of less-than-great things about Shadowland. So, Nocenti it is, I guess.

    @elicrofoot: Yep, Shadowland was pretty bad, but you never know. The only other notable run I can think of is Kesel(#353-364), or maybe Stan Lee if you like silver age stuff.

    Now you have the Charles Soule's.

    And what about the Silver age runs ?

    Charles Soule run feels like a natural follow up to Shadowland but actually really damn good. It does a great job at dismissing Waids run which I'm not a fan of.

    Anne Nocentis run is collected in some Epic Collections if I remember correctly and she did a pretty great job writing a conflicted Matt in the 80's.

    Shout out to Kevin Smiths run. I think it's far from one of the greats but it's really good. Art work took a while to get past.

    Also check out some arcs like Yellow, End of Days, Fall From Grace, Last Rites, Deatg of Karen page and Dead Mans Hand. Daredevil has had a consistently great publication after Miller so you can really read /most/ any series and get some enjoyment out of it.

    Ann Nocenti was pretty good.

    The classic stuff by Stan Lee was pretty good.
