Waterhaul posted:Monthly reminder that you should be reading this book if you aren't. Also Rivera should stay on the book for as long as physically possible. I believe both parts of the crossover are going to be done by Waid and Rivera, but I could be wrong. Nice little done-in-one this issue. I miss good Christmas issues like this.

Neither part is being done by Rivera, it is Ramos and then Rios on DD I believe. edit: I'm wrong, Waid is writing both issues, Rios is on ASM and according to the advert, Kano is on DD. ^burtle fucked around with this message at 06:45 on Dec 22, 2011 |

Picked up the latest issues and have been completely re-won over with this latest run. Diggles' started out with such a great concept and so much promise and really hosed it up royally.

In case anyone wasn't aware that Daredevil is pretty much going be in crossover mode for the next while before reading this weeks issue it'd be a good idea to read last weeks (very good) Amazing Spider-Man

The whole Daredevil having Fantastic Four tech which HYDRA/AIM/Every evil organization want will lead into a crossover, starting at issue #11, with Avenging Spider-Man and The Punisher, all of which will be written by Waid and Rucka. quote:"Daredevil has basically conned five of the biggest crime communities in the Marvel Universe -- Hydra, AIM, Black Spectre, Secret Empire and Hidden Team -- out of a unique hard drive that contains key information on all five organizations," said Waid. "It's the hot potato that Daredevil has and it makes him the most dangerous man on Earth." While Daredevil has the drive trying to beat the clock to find the best application for it, Frank Castle comes knocking on the door. source

Is there a jumping on point for the new stuff? I've read all of the Bendis/Brubaker run and it was one of my favourite comics ever. Any trades out?

Waids really been knocking it out of the park with every single issue of daredevil so far. I stopped reading after Alex Maleev and Bendis stopped writing it. I didn't really like the whole lets make this guy dark and depressing. It's nice to see Daredevil return to kind of sort of a happier outlook. The art has been fantastic. I love the new look of the radar vision. Such a great way to do it. I'd say its the best way its ever been done period. I don't actually like Rucka that much, so I guess the crossover will be interesting but he's just not a terribly great writer or at least I writer I don't particularly care for. Pretty epic story line though and having Spider Man in the mix is great.

So is the Spidey/DD crossover continuing only in Daredevil now? Because the first part was in Amazing Spider-Man, part two was in Daredevil, and then the recent ASM was a completely different story.

This comic just...completes me. It's the best thing I've been reading since I started getting back into comics 7 months ago. Somehow every issue has managed to be better than the last one. It might not be as dark as it used to be but at the same time it doesn't ignore Matt Murdock's history of suffering. In today's issue, one full of a lot of great moments, my favorite was probably a single sentence in DD's internal monologue, a subtle revelation of the still-painful grief from the loss of his father. And to top it all off he's about to have the entirety of megacrime coming at him all at once. Bring it the hell on. I hope this run never ends.

For those that missed it, last week's Punisher had him busting up a gang that was talking about taking down Daredevil. poo poo is going to hit the fan in the "street crime" books and it is going to be glorious.

I've been reading Daredevil from the very beginning (I'm not very far in) and it's hard sometimes to not skip ahead to the "great" stuff. There's some cool in the early issues but there's also a whole tonne of cheese and Stan Lee-ism.

So I'm a bit new to this whole .1 thing Marvel is doing. My understanding is that they're just meant to be jumping on points for new readers, so is it worth it to me as someone already following Daredevil to bother picking 10.1 up?

You should just read the entire series starting with #1. It has pretty much been self-contained with a single issue of Amazing Spider-Man crossing over somewhat recently, and it looks like Avenging Spider-Man and Punisher will be crossing over in the near future.

Some .1's are pure filler and some actual have some content for regular readers. Only reason to not get the book though is the fact that Khoi Pham seems to be bringing the first ugly issue to the current run.

I thought this arc was getting kind of silly but then his fight scene with the Mole Man just turned that right around. This is easily my favorite Marvel book right now and I can't wait for the crossover with Punisher.

Does anyone else think its a bit pointless to have a Point One issue for a book that's only 9 issues in? I know DD has a lot of history, but this run has really told you everything you need to know about the character gradually. The silly thing is that it's going to be kicking off a story that's been building for a few issues anyway, so anyone jumping on board now is still probably going to feel like they're missing something (unless 10.1 explains the whole Megacrime stuff too). This book is still hot stuff though. I'd fallen behind but got caught up the past few evenings (haven't read 10.1 yet though). The Spidey crossover was really well done, I'm actually looking forward to the one with Avenging and Punisher. I guess the Spider-Man one worked well because Waid wrote both issues, but I'm not too worried about him teaming up with Rucka. The Moleman story was great too (particularly because Moleman in one panel looked like he was traced from a picture of the former Prime Minister of Ireland  ). Rivera's art was brilliant on those issues, it's a pity we've lost Martin from the book though.

Yeah ok so 10.1 was actually really good. It got a little bit Claremontian ("I'm just gonna explain my powers here") but not annoyingly so, and there really was a lot of movement of the story. The whole climax to it was pretty great.

I just caught up to #10 this afternoon (had a fuckton of comics pile up and have been working through them while binging Game Of Thrones and Treme before work) and I want to point out how astute Waid's been at picking ideas or characters to bounce DD off that aren't usually done. Mole Man is such an obvious one, being that they're both blind, and sometimes use that to their advantage, and the Black Cat tryst in the Spidey crossover was genius. I'm shocked they've never hooked up before, it makes total sense. When he's not in super-angst mode, Matt's a much more flexible, and sexually open dude than Parker, plus he's got a certain lifestyle, all of which would appeal to Felicia. It didn't feel like the 'Spidey using her to hide from his real life' thing, it felt like two grown ups who think each other are interesting and hot and having fun with that.

Felicia kind of has a history of going in for a guy to use him for selfish purposes and ends up falling for him. She only started dating Flash Thompson way back in the 1980s specifically to make Peter Parker jealous and to break up his new marriage. Then, she ended up falling for Thompson. Ironically, when she revealed to him that she's the Black Cat, Thompson dumped her because he didn't like the whole superhero lifestyle in his women. So it seems like we're getting a similar storyline here. Felicia tries to use DD to carry out her criminal work, finds out he's not that bad, probably will come back later to pursue a relationship.

He's actually owning Cole, but yeah, it was good, if a little bit Waid just didactically writing his opinions on the state of comics directly into his dialogue. It was a solid issue, but I'm just a teensy bit disappointed that the plot device the event is named after is in no way resolved. Now it's going to have to get ridiculously contrived before DD can rustle up a way to destroy this thing definitively.

Well it was bound to happen sooner rather than later given the constant art changes. Paolo Rivera posted:I started working for Marvel when I was barely old enough to drink (legally). I’ve never written a résumé or curriculum vitae. I’ve never gone on a job interview. I’ve never been unemployed. In short, I’ve been very, very lucky. But I’m 31 now... and I’m calling it a decade. source
