    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.

    Hi there, I am new to Daredevil and wanted to read a few of the graphic novels but not sure where to start. I have read the Frank Miller ones are good but there seems to be three different ones and not sure which to go for. I have found Born Again, Man Without Fear and Daredevil 1 to 3 by Miller & Janson. Where do people recommend I start? Thanks for any help.

    Generic Answer goes:

    Read Brubaker and Bendis' run on the character.

    Maybe also start with the new series, as mentioned above.

    The General consensus is the Bendis/Maleev run then the Brubaker run and finally the new series by Waid

    @actionpart: Alright:

    1. Man Without Fear (Miller)
    2. Daredevil Vol. 1-3 (Miller)
    3. Born Again (Miller. I'm not sure if that's in the DD volumes above, though)
    4. Guardian Devil (Kevin Smith)
    5. Daredevil: The Ultimate Collection Vol. 1-3 (Bendis)
    6. Ed Brubaker's DD run
    7. Shadowland
    8. Mark Waid's current run

    Honestly, though, I'd just read the bolded ones, and come back to the others if you feel like you want more.

    I recommend all except for Mark Waid's Daredevil
