Book Review #33: Daredevil: The Man Without Fear

Daredevil: The Man Without Fear (1993)


Written by Frank Miller
Art by John Romita Jr.

Outside of reading Batman: The Dark Knight Returns and Sin City over and over, no other book has come close except Daredevil: The Man Without Fear. It's not lost on me that the author for each of these books is the one and only Frank Miller. They guy, when he is on his A-Game, simply knows how to tell a story that engages the reader from start to end and this book fits in nicely here.

Daredevil: The Man Without Fear is an origin story about Matt Murdock who becomes Daredevil. We get to see his transformation from akward teenager to the masked Superhero and everything in between. And helping tell the story is the amazing art of John Romita Jr. I first discovered him by way of The Punisher War Zone. His style has never changed from book to book and that's a good thing.

I recommend this to anyone that want a fantastic story with amazing art. By all means get this one. I have read this over and over and I never get tired of it. And should you get the Hardcover Edition, it comes with probably the coolest bonus stuff you will ever find. It comes with the full outline of the story as well as the screenplay format with penciled Notes for panels to be drawn. Also, there is a ton of Covers and Unused stories too.

Great stuff.

Rating: 10 Stars out of 10
