Daredevil, Vol. 3: The Daredevil You Know by Mark Waid
4.0
Okay, okay, if I averaged out how much I liked the issues in this collection, I would probably rate this as a three-star book. I wasn't that into the stuntman storyline, but ::squeal:: KINGPIN IS BACK! (Obviously I somehow didn't come into contact with spoilers.)
I'm really excited to see where the series goes, and I'm once again impressed by how Waid manages to keep the main themes of Daredevil, while treading new ground. Somehow he manages to make his run of Daredevil successfully "the same but different" in a good way. Although Daredevil's identity is now public knowledge, it appears that Daredevil/Matt's enemies are once again able to mess with his life by disclosing his secrets and the secrets of those closest to him, undermining the public's faith in him, and forcing a shady deal with the Kingpin.
