Ono što je Miler uradio sa DD, u trenutku kada je izdavača bio druga liga po prodaji, je neverovatno. I dalje za mene jedna od najboljih superherojština, toliko dobra da prevazilazi odrednicu superherojština, a to mi je oduvek i bilo osnovno merilo kvaliteta superherojskog stripa: koliko je scenarista uspeo da radnju predstavi tako da ljudske emocije nadvladaju superherojske moći. U suprotnom slučaju, likovi ostaju neuhvatljivi za nas čitaoce-obične smrtnike.

Kada sam, odmah nakon osnovne škole, prvi put zakoračio u Mardokov svet, posle nekoliko pročitanih EKS-ova, rekao sam sebi- znači može i ovako.

WHY "MARK WAID'S DAREDEVIL"?

One of the criticisms of comic reviewers I see the most is that they're too story-oriented. Too many comic reviews talk only about the writing and then pay lip service to the art. The colorist and letterer are ignored. Judgments are then drawn about the reviewers, usually to the effect that they have no artistic vocabulary, that they're blind, that they're wannabe comic book writers, or that they're so blinded by writing as writers, themselves, that they don't see the forest for the trees.

When I started writing my review of "Mark Waid's 'Daredevil' run" this week, I thought of those criticisms. Was I just as guilty of it because I'm referring to the book as being the writer's? Was I ignoring what Paolo Rivera and Marcos Martin were contributing to the book because I'm blinded?

No, not at all. The big problem here is that the art team rotates so often and that the series has so many volumes and so many memorable runs on it already, that the only way to uniquely refer to this series is by the one core creator on it. Mark Waid is writing all the issues. Rivera, Martin, Chris Samnee, Mike Allred, Kano, Khoi Pham, and Marco Checchetto are all the artists contributing to the first 13 issues. Would you want to read a review of "The Waid/Rivera/Martin/Samnee/Allred/Pham/Checchetto 'Daredevil' Run"? I'd have to create a keyboard shortcut to spit that out every time I wanted to type it.

I've only read the first hardcover collection, so it's just the "Waid/Rivera/Martin 'Daredevil' run" to me right now. Maybe that's more digestible, but it still gets unwieldy.

What I'm getting at here is that sometimes the reason a reviewer might seem to ignore the art on a larger run of comics in these modern times is because artists rotate on books faster than the tub on a front-loading washer. Pity.

Putting aside the meta part of the discussion, I loved the hardcover collection of the first six issues. I also just noticed the official title is "Daredevil by Mark Waid" and I laughed out loud. OK, so we can really blame Marvel now...

The odd thing that impressed me most about the book was the font selection on the dustjacket. It's not the usual Marvel typeface choice. It's a thin san serif font. I believe it's Century Gothic, judging by the distinct question mark glyph. If that's the case, let's all start the rumor that Ike Perlmutter demanded the font's usage because it uses up to 30% less ink!

In any case, I like the open feel to the block of text on the back cover from that selection, though for some reason it bothers me a bit on the inside flaps. It looks too large there, I think, and a little tattered with the italicized titles strewn throughout.

As to the content of the book: Everyone who's praised this title before me is right. It lives up to the expectations set by popular and critical acclaim. Waid does what he has to do to transition the series back from the grim and gritty towards a slightly lighter character piece that plays well in the Marvel Universe. He brings a touch of Silver Age to a very modern book, emphasizing Daredevil's two strongest characteristics along the way: Matt Murdock's blindness and law degree. Focusing on those two facets leads to some interesting and dramatic stories without needing to drag Murdock down into hell. Waid puts Murdock/Daredevil back into some interesting corners and always finds a clever way out. Yes, there is plenty of fighting, but it's all done in service to a larger idea. It's brilliant, classical superhero storytelling.

The art reflects that shift, too. It's nice to see pages full of color instead of black ink now.

Rivera and Martin's work blends seamlessly together. Their takes on visualizing Daredevil's superpowers work very nicely, from the inverted lines to the squared off items whose smells or sounds tickle his senses. Both artists have the ability to take a commonplace scene and transform it into something unique to the world of comics with their page layouts. Rivera led the way with a walk into the subway or across a busy city street, but Martin kept up the pace with closeup panels that create a staccato rhythm to an otherwise simple scene.

Joe Caramagna's lettering shines in the book, too, with some wide open sound effects that help to sell the senses that Daredevil is feeling at any time.

The colors from Javier Rodriguez and Muntsa Vicente complement the art. They don't fight for attention. They let the open linework shine, using minimal special effects and good solid color theory to keep the pages inviting to the eye without being boring. There's no need to "sculpt" this kind of art, and they both know it.

This is a series that isn't trying to look like a movie. It's trying to look like a very strong comic book, and that works. The coloring is a large part of that story.

So, yes, "Daredevil By Mark Waid" Volume 1 is highly recommended from me, too. The hardcover carries a price tag of $19.99, which is on the low end of Marvel's spectrum these days. Given Marvel's publishing patterns lately, you can choose to go with these slim hardcovers or wait a couple of years for an Omnibus edition. I choose not to wait. This stuff is too good.

Šta bi samo značilo da nisi pročita dovoljno Bonellija, čim pišeš ovakve gluposti.
