A review by rtimmorris
Daredevil, Volume 6 by Matteo Scalera, Mark Waid, Tom Peyer, Javier Rodriguez, Chris Samnee
2.0
2.5 Stars. Certainly the low-point in the collected series so far, though it suffers mostly from only having 3 issues of Daredevil in it. The first storyline is an interesting 2-parter that retcons some of DD's origin story, but only a little. And it's enough to be an interesting enough read. The art suffers a bit here too.
The middle story gives us more of the wonderful-ness that is Chris Samnee. This is a tale that on the outside seems like: "Whoah! Silver Surfer and Daredevil team up? I've gotta read this!" but woefully only comes and goes with the reader thinking, "What was the point of that team-up?" This was just another attempt by Mark Waid to try new things with Daredevil's powers. Hey, sometimes it works.
The last two issues are from the latest Hulk series, with DD as the guest star. Since this wasn't a crossover I don't really know why it was included in here other than to make the next volume (the last volume of this series) seem more substantial.
I'd hate to look at my shelf and see volumes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7, so I in that regard I'm happy to own this one.
