Saw the first Omnibus for sale on IST for $40. You guys recommend it, even if it's from Waid?
I glanced over issues before and I loved Samnee's visual storytelling, but wasn't sure about the who story itself.

It's pretty good. Far from the best Daredevil run, but Daredevil is probably the character with the most good runs and the least shitty ones. Enjoy it!
It starts off really strong, but eventually ends up in "what this is still on my pull list?" land. So the first omnibus sounds about right tbhwy.
>Even it's from Waid
It's sad that people on this board will only know Waids bad side. This run is great. It'll scare you to know that Bendis wrote an even better run.
Modern Waid comes in like 20 chapters before the end.

Awesome thanks. Any quick rundown on the overall narrative of it, besides just Daredevil actually being happy for once or something?
Read up until the end of the Ikari arc.
>/co/'s reaction when THAT moment happened
It was glorious
>>93422791
Not bad. But still prepare yourself for Waid's signature cringe writing.
>>93422877
This mostly, except I hold both runs to equal regard.
Daredevil is one of the very few cape comics with consistently awesome back to back runs spanning decades, with the sad exception of Shadowland.
Seriously, what the hell.

I wish that arc had a better ending though, the giant-size issue felt anticlimatic in places.

Shadowland + Soule*

Fuck you. Waid used to be an amazing writer. The guy wrote the best Flash and JLA runs co loves to eat up. Post secret wars he has been admittedly shit so there you go. Just don't forget every writer has their goods and Bad.
>tfw people think I've always hated Marvel when I've got every issue from V2 until V4 floppies, with the best of V1 in TPB
>>93422942
Well, sure, but i figured everyone knew modern marvel blows all around
>>93422791
Daredevil Vol.3 was great.
Daredevil Vol.4 was where Waid starred going downhill. Passable but quality goes down.
>>93422791
Vol 3 is good, vol. 4 is when it stopped being must-read. His new look sucked and his California baddies were forgettable.
>>93422791
first half isn't bad
second half is garbage
>>93422947
Except he's been bad since ANAD Marvel. That's nearly two years. Usually this shows a writers downfall. And the stories you mentioned was written 15-20 years ago.

Thought you guys loved the Ikari arc.
It's smooth sailing until Matt gets to San Francisco.
>>93424172
No, it's good until the Treyvon Martin arc

Do I event want to know?
