Daredevil: The Man Without Fear

Earlier this month I binged Marvel's Daredevil on Netflix, that is one awesome show.  I had to go out & find the origin story of Matt Murdock.  Frank Miller revitalized Daredevil for Marvel Comics in the early 1980s before he solidified is career with his epic tales on Batman for DC Comics.  In 1993 Frank Miller & John Romita Jr. created the essential origin for Daredevil.  This book and everything & then some the only thing that was missing was Night Nurse she was so essential to the Daredevil's life in the show.  Other than that this book had everything even Elektra.  One of the best things about this book is John Romita Jr.'s art I love his work on Amazing Spider-Man, its appropriate for Kick-Ass but in this book it's just phenomenal.   I feel like his style had changed for the worse over the years.  Don't get me wrong his work is still great but his early work is far superior to his current work.  I would love to see Frank Miller return to Marvel Comics in some way on writing duties.  This was a great story & I definitely will be looking for more Daredevil to read.
