Daredevil Visionaries: Frank Miller, Vol. 1 by Frank Miller, Roger McKenzie, David Michelinie

3.0

I neither loved nor hated this series, which I picked up to get a look at a little more of where Daredevil came from in terms of the comics. The character is pretty clearly defined and decently compelling on his own, but I just didn't love the series. The storylines started to feel like they were on repeat (Oh, look, Matt has to choose between crime fighting and a stable real life again. Yawn.) I also hated seeing Black Widow look so damsel-ish and helpless even when she was supposedly actively participating in the stories. I've fallen in love with her as a powerful, dynamic, and capable character, so to see her cast as the flutteringly semi-helpless, lovesick puppy was... unpleasant.

The art was pretty good, however, and some of the stories (like the fight/talk with Hulk) were interesting, but I wouldn't necessarily recommend this volume.
