Daredevil: End of Days #1 | Writer: Brian Michael Bendis & David Mack | Art: Klaus Janson, Bill Sienkiewicz | Colors: Matt Hollingsworth | Publisher: Marvel Comics | Price: $3.99
Extra, extra, read all about it! Daredevil is dead and no one cares. The Man Without Fear’s untimely passing is the backdrop to a much larger picture.
Brian Michael Bendis and David Mack script negatively characterizes the inhabitants of Hell’s Kitchen, and maybe the world. These sentiments are fiercely expressed through the narrative of Ben Urich and the art of Janson and Sienkiewicz.
Daredevil has saved countless lives over the years, but that is lost on people as their own personal lives are all that matter.
That is sad considering Matt Murdock made his life about others, but no one can make time for him. The Kingpin and Bullseye make cameos that leave an indelible impression and Urich tries to fit the all of the pieces together.
He knows there is a story worth telling, but will the plight of a blind hero fall on deaf ears?
