@daredevil21134:

Charlie Cox is seeing things clearly about what it takes to star as Matt Murdock in the upcoming Daredevil series.

"It's great fun, but it also comes with a great deal of responsibility," he told reporters at theTheory of Everything premiere in New York City on Monday night. "I wasn't really aware of how vast the comic book world was until I became part of the Marvel universe. I went to Comic Con last week, and it's really important to a lot of people. It really is. I'm having a great time."

The actor reiterated a bit about his research process and what fans can expect when the Steven S. DeKnight series — also featuring Rosario Dawson, Deborah Ann Woll, Toby Leonard Moore, Bob Gunton, Vondie Curtis-Hall, Ayelet Zurer, Elden Henson and Vincent D'Onofrio — hits Netflix in 2015.

"I've read comics after comics after comics — I've never read so many comics in my life, and we're finding moments from the comics to reference in the show," he explained. "We're trying to make a show that's new and much, much darker than anything I've ever seen Marvel do before."

@tupiaz: Thank you For the info and help. I'm going to have to check out your blog, Do you mind tell me were to go after Born Again? Is it Daredevil by Brian Michael Bendis & Alex Maleev Ultimate Collection - Book 1 or Daredevil By Ed Brubaker & Michael Lark Ultimate Collection - Book 1 ? I'm trying to go in order.

@daredevil21134: Lol I didn't plain on it, I heard it's kinda slap sticky and corny. Would you mind telling me in your own words, why MW run on DD is lackluster. Also why I should skip it, from what I read during the Spidey and DD team up with BC. Im not a fan of Waid's Daredevil.

We have a thread on it.Read all our comments

@tupiaz: Yep.

SUPERIOR IRON MAN #4

TOM TAYLOR (W) • YILDIRAY ÇINAR (A)

Cover by MIKE CHOI

WELCOME HOME VARIANT COVER BY TBA

DAREDEVIL ON THE ROCKS!

• DAREDEVIL discovers the secret to TONY’S success!

• How far will Tony go to stop MATT MURDOCK from revealing this shocking secret to the world?

• As Tony’s actions become even more questionable, who will conspire to take him down, leading up to the battle you thought you’d never see?

Like we need a reminder that Iron Man is stronger than Daredevil? I don't even find that cover as offensive as this... even in January, more cartoons by Samnee (why does DD always look like he was mopping the floor and just saw a mouse?) , more goofing around for a paycheck by Waid, and as you said, no indication that Waid/Samnee will be gone before the show.

@qtmxd: This is the most frustrated i've ever been with comics.So horrible.

Since Bendis run leads into Brubaker's run you should read Bendis run first. I would read Guardian Devil before I read Bendis run though. Guardian Devil deals with some of the things in Born Again. After Brubaker I would trace down some Ann Nocenti or Chichester. You could also pick up Battlin Jack Murdock which is more or less a story with full of homage to Frank Miller's run. Daredevil Redemption is another great solo story.

Don't read Born Again first. It is really confusing if you don't know Daredevil's history. Anyway, here's how I'd go about it. 1. Man Without Fear, 2. Daredevil Vol 1, 2 and 3 then read Born Again. That is Frank Miller's legendary run. After that I recommend reading Ann Nocenti's stellar run (which takes place right after Born Again). And After you're done with Ann Nocent's tremendous run, then start reading the modern stuff (Bendis, Brubaker, Smith, Mack etc.).

That boy passed away not too long ago from the same disease that caused his blindness. He used to flick his tongue which would send off a "Daredevil Sense". I think they should do more research into that so one day we can all be like Daredevil lol

@daredevil21134: DD had plenty of bad years in Volume 1, but had such a good to great streak with Smith/Mack/Bendis/Brubaker, that it's hard to fathom why Marvel wants to publish this when it's not even selling. And with most of their titles having much more realist and detailed art, why do they want a cartoonist like Samnee on DD? And given how far in advance they publish images for news stories, it really does seem like this will continue into the show, consistency and common business sense be damned.

I think at this point our only hope is a mini series during the show.I still hope he leaves soon,maybe Daredevil's latest run in with the Owl will be the long awaited conclusion to this travesty of a run.

@testament: Exactly he was doing the flick with the tongue. Sad to here he passed away. Do you remember his name? Didn't think it was too confusing. However I did read it in a danish trade (or rather miniseries) where it was released with some back story about for instance Karen Page.

It's still possible it could fade out with the Owl by April, but with the Secret Wars et al stuff only beginning in spring, any MU wide reboots that can arise from them won't be ready in time. Yes, they may very well publish a mini-series based on the show, but I have no interest in those. They tend to be just rehashes to make a few bucks, not serious continuity of the actual book series. So our best artistic hope now may be an actual hiatus to the regular series till maybe the end of 2015.
It's also striking that there seems to be no continuity between the Waid book and the Iron Man story. At least they're using DD in a well-hyped Avenger related story, for better or probably worse, but they seem to just let Waid play outside without caring what he's doing.

No I do not but I'm sure you can find his info somewhere on the web.

@daredevil21134: Thank for the link man, I well be sure to check it out. You some like big DD fan so I well ask you, does Matt suffer from depression? Like it is a official illness for him or does he just get really down on himself at times. To the point it looks like he is depress.

@tupiaz: Thanks you for the help, I been wanting to read Daredevil: Redemption since I saw it. It looks great, is there any good one-shot stories?

He has suffered numerous tragedies in his life that has caused depression.But I wouldn't call it an official illness.He just goes through so much of it it looks like an illness cause he's hardly ever happy.He does have the tendency to get down on himself and brood a lot.You'll see that in Ed Brubaker's run especially.Ask me any questions you like brother.We can talk about Daredevil all day XD

@qtmxd: Marvel knows Waid's DD is a circus,so there's no reason to take it seriously.

The IM series might actually make him look okay, but since it looks like a 12 issue series, I doubt if DD will be there for the duration. And you're probably right, the Waid book will fade out by April and then there'll be an easily produced mini-series to go with the show, followed in 2016 by a new noir series after all the other the-world-changed reboots that won't even bother to give a detailed explanation as to why he's back in Hell's Kitchen with his identity intact.

Sometimes it's hard to give stupidity an excuse.They should just ignore it,the tv show is showing what made DD great.Waid loves his Marv Wolfman Stan Lee stuff version.Though I have to say I enjoyed a lot of Stan Lee's DD for what is was.Waid's take is character regression. I even enjoyed Bob Gale,Karl Kessel and Joe Kelly's take more than Waid's

@daredevil21134: Thanks for the information bro , I always thought DD was awesome. But now I really want to get into the character.( Half of it has to do with me wanting expanded my Marvel collection outside of Spidey and 23.) How would you described Matt Murdock, like his personality, motives, desires. Just his character outline, with his abilities and fighting style. I can't wait for the TV series, I wish there was a video game with DD has the lead or key character.

@daredevil21134: I have nothing good to say about those other versions other than they weren't quite this bad. I won't say anything bad about Stan Lee's though, because it seemed great when I was a kid, starting with a couple of Wally Wood/Bob Powell issues,and a lot of Colan issues. Good art can cover some of the worst stories, and the standards were different then.
I think it's so clear that the identity reveal was a mistake that it will end with essentially no explanation, not the first comics idea to do so. But it also seems like a completely new DD run is at least a year away.

I agree.

He's a flawed man that does the best he can with what he has.He doesn't have the flashiest powers but he uses what he has to it's fullest potential.He grew up in a rough neighborhood, and his motives are to keep it as safe as possible.That's why being an Avenger will never work for him,nor should living in San Francisco.Daredevil's mission is to be the guardian devil of Hell's Kitchen, a city that has robbed him of his father,his sight,his loves,and everything else good that he had.Like Frank Miller said,he's generally a man that wants to do good and causes much damage.With the bad life he's had and continues to have, he should've been a villain but he's to stubborn to give in.He's like his dad, he never gives up.Batman life is a bed of roses compared to Daredevil's.

good job... that's all you need to know ;)

He hasn't gotten to many over the years. He has mainly been released in his ongoing series and many of the series don't stand to well on their own. Not because they directly tie in to other stuff but they a connected to the mythos that they don't work to well without knowing other parts of the story.

There are some here are does you can read more or less without any problems:
Like I said before Redemption is a great one and the best stand Alone story I can think off. All you need to know is that Matt Murdock here has been outed (that is a theme happening to him a lot) and he is dealing with that. There is only one panel referring to this event so it is nothing major. Daredevil: Father is written by and drawn by Joe Quesada (he also draw Kevin Smith's Guardian Devil). It takes place roughly doing the same time as Redemption (People now MM is DD). That is if you would consider it canon (I don't think it official is) and it has some rather controversial ideas about Matt Murdock's father Battlin' Jack Murdock (I wont spoil it). I quite like it I think it can be written on is own terms and maybe it wont stroke you the wrong ways as it could do if you know more about Jack Murdock (I do believe some here wasn't so favourable for it for those reasons can't remember who though). Speaking of Jack Murdock we have Battlin' Jack Murdock by Zeb Well and Carmine Di Giandomenico which I like however it is one big love letter for the Frank Miller era so it should be read in that perspective. It can be written without haven read Frank Miller's books I guess. I just don't know who well it works on it self since I had read Frank Miller's DD before I read and kind of hard to take that out when you read the story. Daredevil Noir can be read on its own. i wasn't too blow away with it but it was ok. As the titles says it is set in a Noir setting (like it happened for other characters as well like Spider-man and Iron Man (written by then pretty unknown writer named Scott Snyder). Anyway Daredevil Noir is written by Alexander Irvine (more known for his novel than for his comics) and deals with Daredevil set in the 1930' and therefore don't fit in the main universe. It is an Elseworld story if you like even though that term is only used by DC.Parts of a Whole is written by David Mack and was first published in the main series however I think this can be read fairly easy on its own. Matt meets a new girl at the same time a assassin named Echo is hired to kill Matt by the Kingpin. Vision Quest is also written by David Mack and explains more about Echo however it also deals with events in Parts of Whole.

Things you can read right away:
Even though Daredevil Ninja is written by legendary Daredevil writer Brian Michael Bendis you should stay away from it. It is not that good (apparently Bendis was not satisfied with the storytelling in the drawings and need to redo some of his storytelling to make it fit the storytelling). It also deals with events after Guardian Devil so not really a stand alone series it was however published as a miniseries. However Yellow is a great miniseries but you shouldn't read either until you have read Guardian Devil because it takes place after does events.

Books I haven't read yet:
There is Dark Knights which I still haven't gotten around to read yet (I have it though). It seems like a story you can read without any problems. Daredevil End of Days I haven't read either both works more or less as an alternative ending for Bendis run (Daredevil is Killed and Ben Ulrich wants to figure out who killed him). The graphic novel Black Widow/Daredevil: Abattoir which should be quite good written by Jim Starlin (Most known for his Captain Marvel stuff and Batman: Cult and Death in the Family). However it is sadly OOP and goes for a high value online.

There has also been some team up minis
I haven't read any of them and they are all OOP: They are The Evil Men do, Spider-man/Daredevil Paul Jenkins and Daredevil/Punisher by David Lapham (probably best known for his work with Crossed at Avatar).

You can get a I believe a full list of DD trades and stories/characters that are relevant for DD here.

Well Marv Wolfman did create Bullseye. I would love to see Greg Rucka doing Daredevil.

@qtmxd:Thanks bro.I corrected my spelling errors too lol

@tupiaz: That would be tight

@tupiaz: Thanks for the list man and the site, by the look of the site I should start with Guardian Devil.

"Daredevil is Much Darker Than Anything Marvel Has Done Before"

http://comicbook.com/2014/10/21/daredevil-is-much-darker-than-anything-marvel-has-done-before-/

@daredevil21134: DD sound like my kind of hero, I happen to think his powers are awesome. Along with his skill set, he sounds like a character who really has to overcome adversary. In more ways than one, I like the fact that he has a certain neighborhood he protects. His a shinobi was deals with hardboiled case, him being a lawery is pretty nice twist too. Also one of main love interest is Elektra, who one the hottest kunoichi I ever seen.

Yes,DD is quite the laddies man.But his greatest tragedy is what Marvel has allowed Mark Waid to do to him.

@daredevil21134: Lol damn bro your don't like Waid's DD run huh? I admit I'm not a fan of Waid's DD. I would rather see Scott Snyder or Rick Remender, someone to that regards.

I despise it.

@daredevil21134: With a passion huh? ha ha ha

It is pretty horrible.

That is because it starts of volume 2. You are better to start of with Frank Miller.

With a passion

@daredevil21134: With Daredevil appearing everywhere I don't feel the need to support his book anymore. This is the only place online I can let my feelings about this run be known without getting hated on, every other comic site loves the run. I'll probably end up picking up the hardcovers in a few years when its 70% off.

I loved the Alternate Daredevil in the last Edge of Spider-Verse issue.

Yup,that's why I love this site.I don't understand why people have a hard time believing why some fans wouldn't like this run.Mark Waid himself said he was surprised how people accepted his run.He thought they would kill Foggy off in the next issue because of the change of tone.

@tupiaz: OK I will start with Miller, The Man Without Fear seem a good starting point.

@jonny_anonymous: Your not fan of MW too? I don't really like Waid's DD either.

Hey if you stick around, we'll make sure to tag you in all our news posts regarding Daredevil's Netflix Series.

81st ranked and below 30,000 in sales... it's more than some fans who don't like it, and from casual glancing online like I do, it looks like Waid is meandering with no idea what to do next. I didn't know about the Spider-verse story, more than I can keep up with. Otherwise, I don't see DD appearing everywhere... just the IM story which is SF based and compatible with Waid, even if Waid isn't paying attention. Totally sucks that a new run looks like at least a year away, with hiatus and a perfunctory mini-series all we can imagine for May. Waid has not only killed the DD book for his nearly 4 year run, but beyond it.

Well he is appearing in She-Hulk,he did appear in Wolverine and the X-men a couple issues back,he's schedule to appear in Hulk in January,and as we all know he appeared in Black Widow awhile back.So he has been appearing more so then usual lol.Also Spider-Verse as mentioned previously.

@daredevil21134: I just some more images from the soon to end She-Hulk... as bad as Waid/Samnee. Were any of those appearances the "real" DD?

Nope,he acted almost worse than he did in Waid's run.

@testament: Thanks man that would be awesome, I'm personal excited for the Netflix series. I hope it well have the hardboiled, pulp noir,dark gritty feel to it. That feel/vibe is what has me wanting to get into DD in the first place.

That's what I thought. They are so clear that the show will be really dark, that I cannot figure this out. I guess they could start an actual new series in May, but with so many teasers for other books already, and so much stuff about the show but not the book, it seems unlikely. It's just a question of whether the "funny" DD will stay around and confuse people.

Which is something the great can do no wrong Mark Waid took away from the book.Now Samnee's Jetson's art is supposed to be the new dark and gritty.

I really wish I knew what was happening.

I hope Marvel knows what's happening, and it's not "the Daredevil book?... Waid's got that, wait till the next meeting."
