Daredevil Vol. III
review 1: Looking at this cover I was dubious about borrowing it from the library, not to mention reading it. It features Daredevil and what looked like the Munster’s extended family with pitchforks pointed at them front and center on the cover, yet it’s penned by Mark Waid, who has done some nice work with Daredevil. What could possibly go wrong?Apparently, the Sons of the Serpent have infiltrated the New York City justice system, bent on taking control and implementing their brand of twisted, racist law and order (Insert Law and Order gong here).They’ve enlisted the help of The Jester, one of the lamer villains in Daredevil’s rogue’s gallery. To make him “relevant”, he’s now some sort of computer whiz. Whatever.After some cool support from Hank Pym and the ants... more and advice from Dr. Strange, Daredevil heads south. South? Oh right, remember we’re dealing with twisted racists. Possum’s Balls*, Kentucky is the mystical hot bed of the Sons of the Serpent. It’s here Daredevil encounters the Groovy Ghoulies while trying to find Darkhold, a source book of magic that could aid the Sons of the Serpent in their nefarious plot.Waid actually effectively integrates what could be laughable and incongruous elements. Not outstanding stuff, but entertaining.And for you budding Perry Masons, there some nifty court room drama as well.*Okay, I made that up.
review 2: Good. Not as good as Waid's earlier stuff on the title. The monster squad stuff was just eehhh. Still really like Waid's Murdock. He continues to avoid the depressingly grim version of Daredevil that so many authors since Miller's legendary run have imitated. I greatly enjoyed some of those stories, but it continues to be pleasure to see a hero having fun just being a hero. Interested to see what happens next. less
