Product Description:
This deluxe hardcover concludes the Eisner Award-winning run of writer Brian Michael Bendis and artist Alex Maleev! First, they outed Daredevil in the press; then, they married him and made him the Kingpin of Hell's Kitchen. What could they possibly do to top that? Four words: WILSON FISK IS BACK! Also collecting Bendis' first Daredevil arc, "Wake Up" - a moody, heartfelt tale of heroism and family tragedy featuring fully painted artwork by David Mack (Kabuki). Why is Ben Urich, investigative reporter for the Daily Bugle, spending all his time with the catatonic son of a two-bit costumed criminal? And how is Daredevil connected to a child he doesn't even know? His objectivity shattered, Urich finds himself doubting his journalistic integrity and the future of his very profession in this super hero story unlike any other. Collects Daredevil #76-81, 16-19.

I wet my pants when I read this. I'm not going to be able to hold back the superlatives here. The final arc of Brian Bendis' Daredevil run is such a perfect capstone to such an amazing story. I don't believe super-hero comics have ever been taken this far to their logical conclusions. Bendis manages to have it all--the incredibleness of having super-powers, the magic of a world with aircraft carriers that float in the sky and ninjas fighting NYC cops in broad daylight, combined with a fascinating ...

this book contains the story-arcs: "the murdock papers", "wake up", and the single-issue "what if karen page had lived?".
basically, the murdock papers is really awesome (like all of bendis' work on daredevil) and as it stands i'd give it 4 1/2 stars--its not perfect cause it has too many unrealistically-played guest-appearances throughout, making the last few issues a little claustrophobic.
then the low point comes with bendis' first arc in his daredevil history, wake up, which is ... Read More

As a casual comics reader, the plaudits and accolades given to some writers and illustrators may have escaped me.
The entire DD series as scripted by Bendis is quite enjoyable. The outing of DD's secret, his takeover of Hell's Kitchen as the new Kingpin and so far, his arrest for being DD. The overall plot is great. Overall, I would score the Bendis/Maleev work on DD as a 5-star, for plotting and complementation of text and illustration.
However, some of the stories and characters ... Read More

As previously stated, the Bendis/Mack "Wake Up" story was released as a TPB but is long Out Of Print. It is included at the end of this Hardcover, after the conclusion to the Bendis/Maleev run. The Wake Up story is short & sweet. It is VERY unique and it takes an angle, never before used in comics. The end of the Bendis run "Murdock Papers" is excellent as well. I'm now waiting for the Brubaker/Lark Omnibus so I can continue poking my head into Murdock's life!!!
SOOO... for those of you who ... Read More

"Wake Up" (4 issues/art by David Mack) is not reprinted in HC format. It was printed as a tpb, but is not, and was not to my knowledge, ever included in any previous Daredevil HC.
This HC also collects Bendis last arc on DD, "The Murdock Papers" (6 issues/Alex Maleev) and also "What if Karen Page had lived"(came out in 2005), plus some "extras" including full comic scripts to Bendis first and last issues, some artwork from Alex Maleev and David Mack and a "farewell" article from Bendis.
