Daredevil: The Man Without Fear TPB (Daredevil (Unnumbered))

Product Information

It’s not the worst retelling of the origin though, so there’s that at least for new readers, but it does have some weird/silly aspects to it that is all Miller unfortunately. Not that I thought in Zdarsky’s run Daredevil had never killed anyone before, but at least it’s acknowledged there that it’s not a heroic thing to do, whereas here it’s the opposite - the only death Matt regrets is the innocent bystander. He got blind himself, but those chemicals did something on his body and now all his other senses are enhanced to superhuman levels.

And as much as I like Miller's two runs on the main Daredevil book, I don't think his 'take' can be imported into the origin without fundamentally changing it. After enjoying the latest version of the Daredevil story with Netflix's new series it seemed like a good time to revisit this 1993 origin reboot that Frank Miller did for the character. We take intellectual property concerns very seriously, but many of these problems can be resolved directly by the parties involved. Habían pasado años en los que Miller se había dedicado principalmente a batman y a su serie sin city, pero a Miller le quedaba la espina clavada de no haber dejado su sello en el origen de Daredevil durante el largo tiempo que permaneció en su colección, así que esta fue la oportunidad perfecta para hacerlo colaborando con un dibujante que por entonces estaba en su mejor momento. His love for fighting came from his father, but he promised to be better than his Dad by not fighting.Certainly chief among these has been Miller’s uniquely classical take on superheroic narrative, “300,” and his “Sin City” books, each of which entered motion pictures with historic successes, and each now in Miller's creative phase of achieving its highly-anticipated sequel. It's weird for me to admit that because I do have some purist streak in me when it comes to comic book adaptations but I think this only goes to show that as much as Miller had all these great concepts which the show creators have borrowed from (I think The Man Without Fear is what the Netflix show is one of the major stories it was loosely based from ), these same concepts were improved upon in the other medium where the viewing audience I believe had a better experience with Matt Murdock than readers of this comic book. I view this story as part of that decline, which culminated spectacularly in the atrocity that is Dark Knight Strikes Again. Reading in 2023, a lot of the dialogue and inner monologue feels dated, but the overall themes and character arc still works really well.

I might have been inclined to try to 'stretch' it to fit if I had liked it as an actual story, but I really didn't. A la gran historia de Miller se suma uno de los trabajos clave, quizás el punto álgido, de la carrera John Romita Jr, que borda los escenarios urbanos de la cocina del infierno y representa la acción de forma ejemplar, en conjunto es un gran cómic que quizá no esté entre las más grandes obras de Frank Miller, pero en todo caso es imprescindible para entender la concepción moderna del superhéroe de los cuernecitos. Matt's motives become clear as he develops into someone who ultimately respects rules and laws but can't help but use his power to break them when justice is on the line.

Art and story compliment each other seamlessly, character driven rather than action packed, but when the action comes it is so vivid you will remember it. And I am not saying I dislike it in a hipster way, "Frank Miller's Daredevil is too popular so I dislike it". This was originally intended to be in a graphic novel format, which means that individual issues do not start with a splash page or recaps, which makes for seamless reading. Later, the Black Widow turns up at Matt’s office, wanting him to “go bonk some bad guys on the head”, but Matt wants nothing to do with her.
