About this ebook

A scared teenager on the run. An infant child some say is humanity's savior. A former lover whose life is now hobbled by a terrible secret. A law partner accused of a horrible crime. A city being overcome by an inscrutable menace. They need a guardian. Someone to protect them. Someone with faith in them. They need Daredevil. "Guardian Devil" found Kevin Smith (Clerks, Chasing Amy) confidently transitioning from writing acclaimed screenplays to comics that hit the top of the sales charts and critics' lists. It also found artist Joe Quesada at his peak as the stylist that would usher Marvel Comics into the 21st century - both as an artist and its future editor in chief. Collects Daredevil #1-8, 1/2

This Graphic novel single handedly kick-started Daredevil on a rollercoaster ride, turning DD from a character no-one cared for, in to centre of the Marvel Universe. Kevin Smith tells a superb mystery, wrapping our hero's dual lives together, showing us what Matt Murdock is truly about. Key to this is Queseda's art; expressive and dynamic - DD flies through the sky, Hell's Kitchen lives and breathes in this book. I own the original, and have read the electronic version too. Worth buying 3 times over.

Of course, Frank Miller's run will be the high water mark of Daredevil. But Kevin Smith perfectly relaunched what had become a stagnant character. Kevin was a great choice; as a Catholic he can identify with so much of Matt Murdock's inner struggles to make sense of his crazy world and life in general. Guardian Devil is a must read for any comic fan. I consider it perfect.

I don't own the digital copy here but I do own a physical and want to let people know who enjoy reading digitally better to read this. It is a good story with beautiful artwork, the villain makes so much sense and it's on such a scale which I have never seen before. A must read for any Daredevil or conic book fan. It truly not only pushes Daredevil to his limits but Matt Murdock and he must question his catholic morals which is really what he is to his core.
