Who the hell is Bruiser? This one started off strong and never let up. Daredevil's in way over his head. Manning "1990s" in Gilbert (2008), p. 288: "Writer Mark Waid began what many fans still consider to be the ultimate run on the Captain America title with this series penciled by Ron Garney." Spider-man and Daredevil have been fast friends since the 60s, giving writers some fantastic banter to work with while their artists draw high-flying adventure. Relaunched again, Daredevil vol 4, by Waid and Chris Samnee, saw Matt, Foggy, and Kirsten living in San Francisco, with Foggy getting cancer treatments until he has to fake his own death (again). Matt has trouble when confronted with the Purple Children, the children of the Purple Man, who stir up his depression again, but manages to work on it with Kirsten's help. Matt then decides to write and sell his autobiography to Kirsten's father, but this was interrupted by the Owl, who had gained new powers. Defeating the Owl and outsmarting the Kingpin (again), Matt returned to his friends as the world turned white. Manning "1990s" in Dolan, p. 282: "It was up to writers Mark Waid and Brian Augustyn and artist Barry Kitson to fill in the blanks. With their twelve-issue maxiseries JLA: Year One, the trio examined the early days of the team... JLA: Year One proved a success, and cleaned up decades of convoluted comic history."

This series continues to be a thrilling, fast-paced, lighthearted take on Daredevil, though this volume sees the quality of the writing falling off a tad. I'm starting to get the sense that Mark Waid doesn't really nail the intricate plotting required of conspiracy storylines, and as such both of the major plots in this book suffer a little bit (particularly the first half). And I Must Scream: The ultimate fate of Bullseye in #27. After a demonically possessed Daredevil killed Bullseye in Shadowland, Lady Bullseye manages to resurrect him, but he's completely paralyzed, has lost all his senses except his eyesight, and needs to be placed in an iron lung. Bullseye comes up with a rather elaborate plot to torment Daredevil and ultimately kill him. He fails and in the process loses his sense of sight. One of the most vicious, psychotic, and frightening villains in the Marvel Universe is now, in the words of Daredevil, "a living brain in a flesh and bone coffin." Just to put this in perspective, the series was written during the Elektra solo movie years. I know, I tried to forget as well, but our past is always with us. Recently, the folks over at Marvel must have thought that the series needed to lighten up a bit. They had to be careful, they didn't want to lose those tendencies that made the character compelling in the first place. Enter Mark Waid, Paola Rivera and Marcos Martin. While Waid is shouldering the writing duties as well as infusing a new attitude into Daredevil, Rivera and Martin apply golden age visuals as well as their own style to create something altogether unique.

Daredevil/Batman: Eye for an Eye (per indicia), also known as Daredevil and Batman (per cover), #1 (Jan. 1997) [2] Weiland, Jonah (July 27, 2007). "CCI: Mark Waid Named EiC of Boom! Studios". CBR.com. Archived from the original on October 23, 2012.I like this new direction very much. Superheroes need to move away from the dark and gritty era that has influenced mainstream books for more than a quarter century. Turns out that blind kid overheard some Latverians talking about Hydra. Matt hides him and goes looking for his old boss.
