A review by maddy707
Daredevil by Frank Miller and Klaus Janson Omnibus by Frank Miller
4.0
Pros
The bullseye stories are the best. Daredevil is truly at his best when fighting Bullseye. The Bullseye train issue is my favourite of this omnibus. It perfectly illustrates who Daredevil is. It shows how despite all of his rage and anger, he is still able to be a good person.
I absolutely loved the introduction of Elektra. She is the first, and only, Daredevil love interest I like. I just wish we got to see more of her and Matt together.
This book had some comedic moments, mostly with Turk. It was a nice way to break up the darkness of this.
This book does get better and better as each issue goes on. Miller is able to create page-turning comics, which is more difficult than you might think.
Cons
I do not like Heather Glenn, and I do not like the direction Matt went when he was with her. I'd much rather have Frank Miller break up Matt and Heather permanently than have this on again off again dynamic. It's what irritated me most about Karen and Matt. This relationship is just a repeat of that. Shame, when Elektra is right there.
The artwork of this leaves something to be desired. It's by no means horrible, but it could've been much better. Some of the artwork in this is just outright goofy.
Final Thoughts
Ultimately, Miller revolutionized Daredevil and turned him into the hero he is today. For that, 3.5/5.
