[...] (Although I do disagree with KC calling Wolverine and the X-Men his “current favorite superhero comic.” I mean, I can’t tell him what his favorite is, and I do think it’s excellent, but for me, it’s second to Daredevil.) [...]

That was a Frank Miller story called “Something About a Gun.” I’ve really been digging Waid and Rivera’s on this so far. It’s beautiful work.

I also enjoy when they use Daredevil’s blindness in interesting ways.

I remember one story where Matt was defending a mobster accused of murder. Matt was convinced he was innocent because he could tell by listening to the guys heartbeat that he wasn’t lying. After Matt gets the guy off, he finds out the mobster had a pacemaker which helped to fool Matts hearing and the guy actually was a murderer.

It’s been hard to care about Daredevil for years, I mean…everything was essentially about how sucky his life was.

‘Tis the season for near-death snowbound car accidents caused by runaway deer, I guess.

They also both have the main characters making snow angels on the cover! Hmm…

Both sound like great issues, though.

That confused me the first time through, until I realized that the bus on the first page says “School for the Blind” on it, and he reiterates their status in the party flashback sequence.

You’re right, this series shows how any character can be interesting with the right writers and artists. I never cared one way or the other about Daredevil before, and now, I want to know more. And good point about the serialized status. I hadn’t even thought about that, but I really enjoy reading this every month, so much so that I don’t want to wait for a collection.

Huh the first time I read it, I didn’t even realize the kids were supposed to be blind too. I thought the scene wher he covered their eyes was not just to protect them from the weather but for his ID as well.

It has been such an interesting run so far, I never really cared much for DD before. I had enjoyed a Rucka written take on him and Elektra in the Ultimate line, but this has really brought me in. The single issues are worth me getting, as they are worthwhile each time, not just feeling like a non-fulfilling slice of a bigger story.

Mine too! It’s neat to read something so well done, something that explores danger and grit but is still ultimately positive.

I really don’t have that much to add to your review Jo, but this is easily my favorite Marvel comic right now!
