Considering how all the three Seasons already showcased Matt at his worst moments and the series ended in a happy note with him, Foggy and Karen reunited I think Seasons 4 would be a little lighter, probably adapting stories such as Daredevil yellow or Mark Waid's run

I don't have to imagine it, it was one hell of an cliffhanger to leave off on before Bendis & Maleev went on a hiatus. While it was a little frustrating, I love David Mack's work and having him return to tell another Echo story was pretty great, so it wasn't so bad. I can confirm that after re-reading this run that it was much more enjoyable to read continuously than it was to read piecemeal. A lot of readers and comics professionals at the time bemoaned the change in storytelling, referring to it as 'decompression', since the more classic comic approaches would tell a complete story in a single issue or over the course of two or three at most. Bendis was seen as one of the largest offenders in regard to decompression in comics storytelling. I get it but I do enjoy when a skilled writer like Bendis or Grant Morrison approaches their run planned out, like they're writing a complete novel but it can definitely be detrimental to enjoyment in monthly installments. Still, 20 years on, fans can enjoy these runs in collected formats and Bendis' Daredevil and Morrison's New X-Men really shine as longer form stories.
@SnapperChannel4 жыл бұрын
This was a great continuation of the Bendis/Maleev run of Daredevil. I like how you examine how the second of the run is told much more from the perspective of how others view Matt’s actions. The first half was clearly showing Matt’s slow path of self-destruction from his perspective. It only makes sense for Bendis and Maleev to see how far Matt has come to becoming his own worse enemy. Honestly, I thought Brubaker did a great job continuing the cliffhanger Bendis left off on. Can’t wait for a Brubaker video in the future. Until then I look forward for whatever you have next in store for Darecember. Also, you just made realize how really weird Guardian Devil was in retrospect.

Bendis very cleverly combined a 2nd rate Miller with the Sopranos and produced a hit. Of course, it would have been hopeless without Alex Maleev's perfectly matching artwork.

Great video! Bendis and Brubaker runs on Daredevil are one my favorite comic book runs of all (although I like more the Brubaker run). The way they showcase Matt's fallen from grace and eventual rebirth are incredible, specially the bendis part which had the amazing Alex Malleev's art, which helps gives the story a very dark and noir atmosphere, very fitting for the Devil of Hell's Kitchen.

Daredevil is unique to me, the only hero that seemed to be vulnerable at all times. He was in even worse shape AFTER he put the costume on. The Netflix show did a really good job of portraying him. The weakest season was 2 when he had the armored costume. In season 3 he was just a guy recovering from near death again and they gave the armor to Bullseye. That's Daredevil...the gifted underdog who can't catch a break.
