As someone who grew up on comics and then took a very long hiatus, this story arc was the one that got me back into them. The art in these books is breath-taking. It reminds me of the havok/wolverine stories from the 80's only better.
When I was a kid I thought Daredevil was pretty lame. I could never get into the characters (granted I was more into mutants and giant robots but...) This story arc totally converted me. I really enjoyed the art, particularly when Mack mixes media like ... Read More

I will not deny that Bendis is my favorite writer putting material out these days for Marvel. Loeb,Pak, and Strazynski would have to be runners up. And these guys are Bendis's dust as runners up. This collection in Wake Up is Daredevil 16-19, which is out of print by the way. It's Bendis's first run on the series, and with the outstanding art by Mack, it is a brilliant start. It is a sad story, dealing with both Daredevil and Murdock, but it's much deeper than that. I don't want to give away ... Read More

Why would that be surprising? Well, for starters, it doesn't have a lot of Daredevil/Matt Murdock in it; at least not on the surface. Secondly, as a reader who usually goes more for the writing than the art, this is a story that I love more for the art than anything else. That's not to say that the writing is bad (good art usually can't save bad writing), but that the art is so stunning as to be a very rewarding experience in and of itself. As far as the writing is concerned, this is a very gripping ... Read More

3 and a half stars.
"Wake up" is the first, 4 issue, Daredevil arc that Bendis did before he got the regular job, with art provided by David Mack (who wrote the DD arc "Parts of a Hole", and then helped Bendis get this, and later, job's apparently).
Wake up is an interesting DD tale in that it really doesn't involve Daredevil, as a character, all that much at all, who doesn't appear until the third issue, and is featured prominently only in the last (so if your expecting lots of cool ... Read More

I picked this book up at the tail end of a Brian Michael Bendis bender -- once I'd read all the "Powers" collections, what was left...? And having read it, I'm looking forward to the rest of his "Daredevil" stories...!
I think this was the start of his stint scripting DD (in issues 16-19) and while the overall story has a bit of a been-there, agonized-over-that feel to it (a child abuse victim goes into catatonic withdrawl, until the adults can catch up to what he's been through...), Bendis ... Read More
