Let me tell ya, True Believer, these cats pull no punches!

[From Marvel Comics: It’s an identity crisis for Daredevil as Matt Murdock juggles a bevy of baddies seeking to sully his good name while he juggles the triple-identity of Matt Murdock, Mike Murdock, and DD! You just might want to ready your slide ruler for tragedy with this kind of trigonometry. After a dust-up with the Beetle, the Trapster attempts to trick the Fantastic Four into attacking DD by disguising himself as none other than ol’ hornhead himself! Wiser minds prevail, but only until none other than Dr. Doom steps up to the plate! In one of Daredevil’s most amazing Silver Age adventures, he goes toe-to-toe with Doc Doom - in opposite toes! You guessed it, the Latverian monarch switches bodies with Daredevil bringing on a battle that drags the Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, Thor into the mix in one of Marvel’s first crossover bonanzas! As if kicking him out of his own body wasn’t enough, next the Exterminator tries to evict Daredevil from the time stream! With the Unholy Three at his employ to clobber the hornhead back into the Stone Age, he’s got a good chance of succeeding ’cause there’s at least one cast member that won’t be making it out of this adventure alive.] 
Essential Daredevil 1 (1-25; w Stan Lee; a Wally Wood, John Romita Sr., Gene Colan, et al.). [From Marvel Comics: Long before his days as the urban protector of gritty Hell's Kitchen, Daredevil was known as the Man Without Fear! A childhood accident robbed Matt Murdock of his sight - but in exchange, blessed him with an extraordinary radar sense. Donning a colorful costume, Matt used this powerful gift to fight an ingenious array of supervillains that puts even Spider-Man's rogues' gallery to shame!] 
Essential Daredevil 2 (26-48, Annual 1, Fantastic Four 73; w Stan Lee; a Gene Colan).

Daredevil vs. Bullseye 1 (131, 132, 146, 169, 181, 191; w Marv
Wolfman, Archie Goodwin, Jim Shooter, Denny O'Neil & Frank Miller; a
Bob Brown, Gil Kane & Frank Miller). [From Marvel
Comics: The devil and the death-dealer. Their enmity toward each other
cast a shadow across the bodies of Daredevil's loved ones, all the way to
the big screen. Now, see how the first target was drawn in this collection
of the earliest battles between Marvel's deadliest assassin and the Man
Without Fear!] 
Daredevil by Frank Miller Omnibus (158-161, 163-191, What If 28; w Roger McKenzie, David Michelinie, Frank Miller; a Frank Miller & Klaus Janson). [From Marvel Comics: Frank Miller's spellbinding scripts and pulse-pounding pencils herald
one of Daredevil's greatest eras, just in time for the Kingpin and
Bullseye's efforts to rob the Man Without Fear of everything he holds
dear! Featuring the first appearances of Elektra, Stick and the Hand!
The daring discovery that drew Ben Urich into Daredevil's domain of
darkness! Such forgotten-yet-formidable foes as Death-Stalker and the
Gladiator! Guest-starring the Hulk, the Avengers, and Power Man and
Iron Fist!] 
Visionaries: Miller 1 (158-161, 163-167; w
Roger McKenzie, Frank Miller, David Michelinie; a Frank Miller & Klaus
Janson). [Miller's first major comics work, as he developes
from an interesting if raw artist into a fledgling writer-artist. [From
Marvel Comics: Frank Miller took one of Marvel's most unlikely heroes
and turned him into a comic book legend. Daredevil - blinded as a boy by
a freak accident that gave him tremendous sensory abilities - was a lawyer
by day and a force of justice by night. Prowling the streets of Hell's Kitchen,
Frank Miller's Daredevil submerged us in a world where heroes, pushed to
the brink of madness, were allowed to mirror the human frailty within us
all. Frank Miller is counted among the handful of creators who brought comics
to the mainstream. He is an innovator whose stories, filled with provocative
themes and issues, have thrilled young and old readers alike for years.
The groundwork for his ever-evolving style was laid out in these very issues.
See where it all began.] 
Marked For Death (159-161, 163-164; w Roger McKenzie; a Frank Miller
& Klaus Janson). [From Marvel Comics: Daredevil,
the red-garbed foe of evil, the man without fear. He has become the target
of the maniacal villain known as Bullseye, in whose hands anything and everything
is a deadly weapon. Having kidnapped Daredevil's partner, the Black Widow,
Bullseye will stop at nothing to see his arch-foe eliminated. Now the trap
has been set, and Daredevil is Marked for Death!] 
Visionaries: Miller 2 (168-182; w Frank Miller; a Frank Miller
& Klaus Janson). [Miller comes into his own, and introduces
his creation, Elektra. From Marvel Comics: One, a hero fighting for
Right. The other, an assassin with a Hunger for Revenge. From the moment
Matt Murdock met Elektra Natchios, he knew they were destined to be together.
Before he was to become Daredevil, he confided in her, revealing his extra-sensory
perceptions and the awful accident that led to the loss of sight as well
as his extraordinary gifts. But then, tragedy struck and they were torn
apart, seemingly forever. Or at least that's what Matt Murdock believed.
Years later, in a back alley on a rain-soaked street in Hell's Kitchen,
Daredevil meets his match. A deadly female assassin who will stop at nothing
to achieve her goal. A woman who Daredevil's senses tell him is his lost
love Elektra. But she is not the girl he fell in love with. Not anymore.
Daredevil and Elektra... One of the epic love stories of comic book history
as told by one of the industry's legends... Frank Miller!] Old Book of the Week 8/17/05: 
Gang War (169-172, 180; w Frank Miller; a Frank Miller & Klaus
Janson). [From Marvel Comics: Bullseye is back! When
Wilson Fisk, retired Kingpin of Crime, holds criminal evidence that threatens
the balance of power in New York City's underworld. When his enemies kidnap
his wife, Vanessa, the Kingpin comes out of hiding, and he becomes a target
for Bullseye - the world's most accurate assassin! Thus Daredevil, the man
without fear, is caught in the deadly crossfire of a gangwar!Daredevil:
Gang War reprints Frank Miller and Klaus Janson's best-selling Daredevil
issues, featuring the return of the popular villain Bullseye, and the first
confrontation between the sightless swashbuckler and his arch nemesis—the
Kingpin!] 
Visionaries: Miller 3 (183-191; w Frank Miller; a Frank Miller
& Klaus Janson). [The triumphant conclusion of Miller's
first run, featuring the death of Elektra and its searing emotional aftermath.
From Marvel Comics: A lawyer by day—a superhero by night, Matt
Murdock attempts to help those who cannot help themselves. Mired in the
depths of Hell's Kitchen, Daredevil continues his crusade for justice. A
myriad cast of characters: * The Punisher, a man bent on being judge, jury
and executioner. * The Black Widow, a beautiful secret agent running against
the clock. * Stick, Daredevil's teacher and mentor, with a mysterious past.
* The deadly ninjas known only as The Hand, set to deliver death to all
who oppose them. * Elektra, Daredevil's recently murdered love, on the verge
of resurrection. Woven together by master storyteller Frank Miller, these
issues conclude Miller's historic first run on Daredevil. In this third
volume, Miller continued to deliver themes and ideas rarely used in the
comic book industry, which helped turn what many people thought of as a
simple medium into a true art form. Frank Miller and renowned artist Klaus
Janson deliver tales of pain and loss, where the only glimmer of hope comes
from a man who can't actually see... Daredevil, the Man without Fear.]
Love's Labors Lost (215-217, 219-222, 225-226; w Denny O'Neil,
Frank Miller; a David Mazzucchelli). [Notable primarily
for the beginning of the brilliant David Mazzucchelli's run on the book,
and his first teaming with writer Frank Miller when Miller returns to Daredevil
in the final issue collected. From Marvel Comics: A tragic accident
took Matt Murdock's sight - but in return, enhanced his remaining senses
far beyond human limits. In Daredevil: Love's Labors Lost, the blind adventurer
and those closest to him face the bitter sting of heartbreak in all its
forms—amid a globe-spanning superhero epic stretching from the swamps
of New Jersey to the canals of Venice. Artist David Mazzucchelli (Batman:
Year One, Daredevil: Born Again) arrived on Daredevil with little fanfare,
but his work quickly sparked an astounding renaissance for the hero. Mazzucchelli's
compelling artistic range, from stark minimalism to intricate detail, soon
set a high-water mark for the series.] Mostly contained in Daredevil by Frank Miller Omnibus Companion below 
Daredevil by Frank Miller Omnibus Companion (219, 226-233, Man Without Fear 1-5, Love & War OGN, Peter Parker the Spectacular Spider-Man 27-28; w Frank Miller, Dennis O'Neil, Bill Mantlo; a Frank Miller, David Mazzucchelli, John Romita Jr., Bill Sienkiewicz, John Buscema). [From Marvel Comics: The Man Without Fear is born and reborn in this collection of Frank
Miller's finest! Follow the fledgling Daredevil through his earliest
adventures and errors at the dawn of the Age of Marvels, then into the
depths of desperation and back again after being cut down by the
Kingpin! Guest-starring the Avengers and Nuke, later of Wolverine:
Origins! Plus: a seldom-seen saga by Millar and artist extraordinaire
Bill Sienkiewicz!] 
Born Again (227-233; w Frank Miller; a David
Mazzucchelli). [Often considered to be the best Daredevil
arc ever; Matt Murdock deals with Karen Page's addiction, turns to the church
for salvation, and perhaps learns something about his mother. The Miller/Mazzucchelli
team is magnificant; unfortunately, aside from their teaming on Batman:
Year One, Mazzucchelli has largely withdrawn from mainstream comics.
From Marvel Comics: Karen Page, Daredevil's former lover, trades
away Daredevil's identity for a drug fix. Matt Murdock must find strength
as the Kingpin of Crime wastes no time taking him down as low as a human
can get.] Old Book of the Week 4/12/06: A much more serious treatment of religion, probably the first of its kind, this is the gut-wrenching story of Daredevil's fall and redemption on the mean streets of Hell's Kitchen. Writer Frank Miller, returning to the book after redefining the character a few years earlier, fully integrates Daredevil into Catholic thought without trivializing it, giving him much added depth in the process. The art, which together with his collaboration with Miller on Batman: Year One represents almost the entire mainstream œuvre of the brilliant David Mazzuchelli, is a revelation, combining the grittiness and energy of Miller's interpretation with a dazzling technical virtuosity. This storyline is one of the great achievements of the superhero genre; Daredevil would not matter again until the recently-concluded Bendis-Maleev run, almost two decades later. Contained in Daredevil by Frank Miller Omnibus Companion above 
Typhoid Mary (254-257, 259-263; w Ann Nocenti;
a John Romita Jr.). [The first appearance of the wildly
popular Typhoid Mary character, whose appeal utterly eludes me. I find these
issues trite and terribly dated, but other people swear by them. From
Marvel Comics: Typhoid Mary is a psychotic, schizophrenic predator who
will use her gallery of multiple personalities for one single-minded purpose:
to seduce, dominate and ultimately execute her prey. Quickly becoming the
underworld's most feared assassin, she terrorizes her targets with a seemingly
inexhaustible lust for bloodshed. In service to the Kingpin, Mary sets her
deadly sights on Daredevil, the heroic protector of New York's notorious
Hell's Kitchen.] 
Fall of the Kingpin (297-300; w Dan Chichester; a Lee Weeks).
Fall from Grace (319-325; w Dan Chichester; a Scott McDaniel).
1 Guardian Devil (1-8; w Kevin Smith; a Joe Quesada & Jimmy
Palmiotti). [The revitalization of Daredevil under Joe Quesada's
Marvel Knights imprint begins, featuring Hollywood director Kevin Smith's
quasi-sequel to Frank Miller's "Born Again." From Marvel Comics:
Daredevil's notion of faith is tested when a mysterious baby winds up on
his doorstep. Following the death of his longtime lover, Daredevil must
find the strength to continue.] 
2 Parts of a Hole (9-15; w David Mack; a Joe Quesada & Jimmy
Palmiotti). [David Mack, primarily known for writing and
drawing his indy Kabuki books, turns to mainstream writing in this
arc featuring a new potential love interest for Matt Murdock, the deaf neo-Elektra
Echo. From Marvel Comics: Matt Murdock dwells in a world of eternal
darkness, forever shut off from the visual world by a blinding childhood
accident. Maya Lopez suffers from a sense-depriving condition all her own:
a birth induced deafness that shrouds her in silence. Two individuals dealt
unlucky hands, they have both transcended their disabilities in ways that
defy reality. Though seemingly kindred souls, their secret identities are
very much at odds. Maya seeks out her father's killer, a man that Kingpin
fingers as Daredevil! Can Matt clear his name before his new love becomes
his executioner? Acclaimed writer/painter David Mack weaves a tale of dangerous
liasons and forbidden romance that will change the Man Without Fear forever.]
3 Wake Up (16-19; w Brian Michael Bendis; a David Mack). [This
out-of-continuity story features reporter Ben Urich, and has not been collected
in the hardcovers. This may be because the first HC volume was all Joe Quesada,
and the second and third all Alex Maleev art; perhaps this David Mack storyline
is being held back for a future HC volume including his upcoming second
run on Daredevil. From Marvel Comics: A moody, heartfelt tale of
heroism and family tragedy by Brian Michael Bendis, the red-hot writer of
Ultimate Spider-Man and Alias—with fully painted covers and interior
art by David Mack (Kabuki)! Meet Ben Urich, investigative reporter for the
Daily Bugle. His current assignment: the media circus that is the murder
trial of Wilson Fisk, the so-called Kingpin of Crime! At least, that's the
gospel according to his editor, J. Jonah Jameson. So why is Urich spending
all his time with the catatonic son of the two-bit costumed criminal called
Leap Frog? And how is Daredevil, the Man Without Fear, 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 their
first full-length collaboration, acclaimed auteus Bendis and Mack deliver
a superhero story unlike any other!] 
4 Underboss (26-31; w Brian Michael Bendis; a Alex Maleev).
[The beginning of Brian Michael Bendis' run proper, with stunning, realistic
art by Alex Maleev, beginning with the (almost) assassination of the Kingpin,
and exploring the chaos in the underworld with his removal from the picture.
Some (including me) say that with the Bendis/Maleev run, Daredevil has returned
to heights previously only know in the Frank Miller era. From Marvel
Comics: The mystery man called Mr. Silke has inspired Wilson Fiske's
lieutenants to rise up and take down the Kingpin of Crime! What is the connection
between Silke's coup and the contract on attorney Matt Murdock's life? And
what role did Fisk's wife and son play in the underbosses' uprising? Following
his four-issue examination of investigative reporter Ben Urich, Eisner Award-winning
writer Brian Michael Bendis sets his sights directly on Daredevil! When
Matt Murdock dons his crimson costume to fight crime in Hell's Kitchen,
what happens to the man beneath the mask? Is the Man Without Fear also becoming
the Man Without Mercy? Bendis and acclaimed artist Alex Maleev blast the
blind adventurer in a bold new direction!] 
5 Out (32-40; w Brian Michael Bendis; a Alex Maleev, Manuel Gutierrez,
Terry Dodson). [Daredevil's secret identity has been sold
to the tabloids, and published. Also features "Trial of the Century,"
a non-Maleev mini-arc about Matt Murdock defending the White Tiger on murder
charges. From Marvel Comics: A down-on-his-luck FBI agent has sold
the hero's most guarded secret to a tabloid newspaper, exposing Daredevil's
identity to the entire world. How far will the Man Without Fear go to reclaim
his life?] 
6 Lowlife (41-45; w Brian Michael Bendis; a Alex Maleev). [The
Owl—that's right, the Owl—tries to replace the Kingpin as the
boss of the underworld. From Marvel Comics: After his secret identity
as Daredevil is publicly exposed, Matt Murdock is forced to reckon with
the problems and legal ramifications that emerged as a result of his public
outing. But there isn't much time for Matt to dwell on his problems, as
a new love appears on the horizon and one of Daredevil's most dangerous
foes returns to take over the NYC underworld!] 
7 Hardcore (46-50; w Brian Michael Bendis; a Alex Maleev et al.).
[The return of Typhoid Mary. Issue 50 is drawn by a series of guest artists
from Daredevil's past: John Romita Jr., Joe Quesada, Klaus Janson, Lee Weeks,
John Romita Sr., David Mack & Gene Colan. From Marvel Comics:
Daredevil is simultaneously faced with murder charges, a new girlfriend,
being outted by the tabloids, the return of one of his deadliest foe's Typhoid
Mary, and the Kingpin's attempt to restore his fallen empire. And the surprise
ending changes Daredevil's place in the Marvel Universe forever.]
8 Echo—Vision Quest (51-55; w & a David Mack).
[From Marvel Comics: Maya Lopez — a.k.a. Echo — a deaf
young woman capable of assimilating an individual’s fighting style
by sight and who nearly took down Daredevil — makes her return. Her
entire life was once defined by her belief that Daredevil killed her father
and that the Kingpin could help her achieve justice. Now, with her perceptions
completely altered, can she make sense of the world? Echo embarks on a Native
American vision quest to pick up the pieces of her shattered life.]
9 King of Hell's Kitchen (56-60; w Brian Michael Bendis; a Alex
Maleev). [From Marvel Comics: It's been a year since
Daredevil did the unthinkable, beating Wilson Fisk to within an inch of
his life and declaring himself the new Kingpin. Now, the Yakuza have come
to stake their claim for Hell's Kitchen, targeting Matt Murdock. Their unforgettable
battle royale is just the tip of the iceberg, and Daredevil will never be
the same again. Featuring guest-appearances by Spider-Man, Luke Cage, Iron
Fist, Reed Richards and Dr. Strange!] 
10 The Widow (61-65, Vol. 1 81; w Brian Michael Bendis; a Alex
Maleev). [From Marvel Comics: You asked for it; you
got it: Daredevil's fiery, redheaded ex-partner returns to Hell's Kitchen
to help the new Kingpin keep the streets clean. But why is she really back?
One of Marvel's greatest love stories takes an interesting turn, and all
in the horrible face of...JIGSAW! Guest-starring Nick Fury and the Avengers!

and the Black Widow, from 1971's DAREDEVIL 81!]

13 The Murdock Papers (76-81; w Brian Michael Bendis; a Alex
Maleev). [From Marvel Comics: The Eisner Award-winning run of Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev
comes to a blistering conclusion! 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!] 
The Devil, Inside and Out 1 (82-87; w Ed Brubaker; a Michael Lark). [From Marvel Comics: The critically acclaimed, award-winning new creative team of Ed Brubaker and Michael Lark make their explosive debut in a storyline that Daredevil fans will not be able to put down! For the past few years, Matt Murdock’s life has been teetering on the edge of destruction. Now, pushed beyond the limit, Matt finds himself behind the eight ball with no clear way out, the people he calls friends slowly deserting him, and Hell’s Kitchen gradually slipping out of control. The question is, when his back is against the wall, just how far will Daredevil go to get back what is his? Spinning out of the stunning finale of Bendis and Maleev’s ground-breaking run, Brubaker and Lark pick up the billy club and run as hard and as fast as they can to leave their own mark on one of comics’ most enduring legends. Longtime DD fans will not be disappointed!] 
The Devil, Inside and Out 2 (88-93; w Ed Brubaker; a Michael Lark, David Aja). [From Marvel Comics: Daredevil’s search for the truth leads him out of the country, on a swashbuckling noir adventure that hasn’t been seen in the pages of DD for years! But is this the other DD, or the original? Only time will tell, as the hit new DD creative team of Brubaker and Lark dive straight into their second story.

the new obstacles that have been placed in their way? Can "Blind Love" conquer all?] 
Daredevil 1 (1-15, ½; w Kevin Smith, David
Mack, Jimmy Palmiotti, Joe Quesada; a Joe Quesada & Jimmy Palmiotti, Rob Haynes, Dave Ross). [1st edition omits issue
12 (a fill-in by Rob Haynes), and ½ (written by Kevin Smith, drawn by various). From Marvel Comics: A tragic accident
took his sight - but in return, enhanced Matt Murdock's remaining senses
far beyond human limits. An accomplished attorney by day, by night Murdock
seeks justice outside the law as Daredevil, the Man Without Fear. When Marvel
Knights took hold of this classic Marvel Comics character, two incredible
stories redefined Daredevil for a new generation. In filmmaker Kevin Smith's
series debut, a scared teenager on the run places her baby in Matt Murdock's
hands. She claims her infant is humanity's newborn savior, a true miracle
child. Yet an elderly stranger soon confronts Murdock with some shockingly
different news about this infant. While Daredevil attempts to separate fact
from fiction, the deadly assassin Bullseye enters the fray, determined to
capture the baby and leave the hero dead in the process. Fans and critics
alike rated Smith's eight-part saga as one of Daredevil's greatest storylines
ever—a tale of surprising twists and turns that leaves the Man Without
Fear facing the tragic loss of one of his closest friends. In his stunning
follow-up, Eisner Award-winning creator David Mack introduces the femme
fatale called Echo. Like Daredevil, Maya Lopez has turned her own disability
into an advantage—while deaf, she can perfectly mimic every fighting
technique she sees. As Echo, Maya will use these skills to hunt down the
man she believes killed her father: Daredevil. Can the hero uncover the
truth of Maya's past before she exacts her bloody revenge? These are the
stories that helped bring actor Ben Affleck to the Daredevil motion picture
and fast-tracked the film from every comic fan's dream to blockbuster-movie
reality!] Gormuu's

Daredevil 2 (26-37; w Brian Michael Bendis; a
Alex Maleev). [Skips 20-25's uncollected "Playing to the Cameras" arc by Bob Gale
and Phil Winslade; this story was not popular, and perhaps is being eased
from the canon. 16-19 are collected in Volume 6. From Marvel Comics: Can you keep
a secret? A really, really big secret? A secret that would crush a man's
entire life, if revealed? Years ago, the notorious Kingpin of Crime learned
his mortal enemy Daredevil was really Matt Murdock, the blind New York City
lawyer and political activist. The Kingpin kept Daredevil's true identity
to himself, using the knowledge to wage a private, one-on-one war with the
protector of Hell's Kitchen. But now, the Kingpin's mysterious new underboss,
Mr. Silke, has also discovered Murdock's crimson alter ego—and he'll
use the information to topple the Kingpin as the Big Apple's biggest crime
boss. Yet when Silke's conspiracy goes dangerously awry, the secret gets
out—with Daredevil's double identity blasted across the front page
of the Daily Globe! In the resulting media circus, reporters from every
TV station and newspaper in the city are camped out on Murdock's front steps
to get the scoop on his exposed secret life. With a camera flash at every
turn, his phone ringing off the hook, and his every move scrutinized and
analyzed under the microscope of public opinion, will Murdock be forced
to retire Daredevil for good? And if so, how will the citizens of Hell's
Kitchen recover from the loss of their greatest protector?]

underworld. And if that isn’t enough, Daredevil also faces murder charges,

attempt to restore his fallen empire. And the surprise ending changes Daredevil's
place in the Marvel Universe forever!]

Daredevil-Elektra: Love & War (Supersize
HC—Love & War OGN; Elektra: Assassin 8-issue mini; w Frank Miller;
a Bill Sienkiewicz). [Love & War goes deeply into the
Kingpin, and his relationship with Daredevil; Elektra: Assassin is a trippy
delight about Elektra's adventures as a quasi-agent of SHIELD, and marked
the completion of Bill Sienkiewicz's transition from a Neal Adams clone
to, well, Bill Sienkiewicz. From Marvel Comics: The 1980s was a groundbreaking
period in the history of comic books, with a flood of talented writers and
artists smashing the boundaries of the medium. Epitomizing the decade's
bold spirit of innovation, visionary creators Frank Miller and Bill Sienkiewicz
unleashed two epics in 1986 that bore no resemblance to any previous comic
book—and to few since. Daredevil: Love and War and Elektra: Assassin
represent a rare synergy between two acclaimed auteurs, each at the top
of his creative career. Love and War dares to peer into the pitch-black
heart and tainted soul of pure evil. The Kingpin has built an empire on
human sin. He is feared by the innocent and the wicked. Elected officials
obey his will as swiftly as the lowest pimps and pushers. He has everything
he desired. Everything he desired... until he met her. Will Wilson Fisk
allow his one weakness to undo all he has acheived? Assassin is a psychological
excursion through the mind, body and soul of a woman at war with herself.
An unconscious body washes ashore off the coast of a small Central American
country, setting in motion a strange series of events. Two police officers
are strangled. A diplomat is assassinated. A S.H.I.E.L.D. agent is brutally
dismembered. Unrelated incidents? Hardly. Elektra is back.] 
Daredevil/Spider-Man: Usual Suspects (4-issue mini; w Paul Jenkins;
a Phil Winslade, Tom Palmer). [From Marvel Comics:
Spider-Man and Daredevil are friends. Spider-Man knows that Daredevil is
the blind lawyer Matt Murdock, whose other senses were heightened as the
result of a freak childhood accident. And Daredevil knows that Spider-Man
is Peter Parker, who gained his amazing abilities from an irradiated spider
bite. Both Spider-Man and Daredevil have their fair share of laughable fores:
Stilt-Man, Gladiator, the Owl, Copperhead. But no one is laughing anymore.
Something has happened to these enemies—something terrible and diabolical,
transforming them into icons of darkness. Now Spider-Man and Daredevil find
themselves caught at the crossroads of their vengeance, forced into the
position of protecting the Kingpin of Crime from an enemy they never could
have imagined.] 
Daredevil vs. Punisher (6-issue mini; w & a David Lapham). [From Marvel Comics: It’s wall-to-wall David Lapham (Stray Bullets) as the Eisner Award-winner and indy sensation writes, pencils and inks two of Marvel’s biggest icons! Daredevil and the Punisher vie for the soul of Hell’s Kitchen as half the East Coast’s underworld — in chaos since Wilson Fisk, the Kingpin of Crime, was deposed—scramble for a shot at the big chair. And as the city descends into chaos—as murder and intimidation become the staples of the day —Daredevil and the Punisher each seek to restore order in their own unique way. For Daredevil —who’s anointed himself the city’s new “Kingpin”—this means dispensing justice at the end of a billy club. But for the Punisher, justice at the end of a billy club isn’t justice at all. For the Punisher, justice for these animals is at the end of a shotgun. Featuring more Marvel villains than you can shake a stick at—including Hammerhead and the return of the nefarious...Jackal!]

Raised by a single father, an over-the-hill prize fighter with one last chance to make good; a chance that costs him his life. Taunted and tormented by children while growing up, his life unalterably changed after being blinded by radioactive materials while saving the life of an old man. The payoff?

Ninja (3-issue mini; w Brian Michael Bendis; a Rob Haynes). [From Marvel Comics: Matt Murdock, Daredevil, is a man with uniquely enhanced senses.

He was trained to use these abilities by a man known only as Stick, who fought a mystic war against a clan of Ninja called the Hand. Stick died in the battle that brought an end to the Hand's evil. Or so Daredevil thought. But now he finds himself swept back into the Japanese underworld, kidnapped against his will and thrust into a battle between old allies and deadly new enemies.] 
Redemption (6-issue mini; w David Hine; a Michael Gaydos). [From Marvel Comics: In the small, God-fearing town of Redemption Valley, a young boy's body is found dead and mutilated.

Enter attorney and super-hero Matt Murdock, brought in to save the troubled teen from what looks like a witch-hunt by an outraged community desperate for justice...and the death penalty. This may be the most important case of Matt's career. A loss means justice denied and certain death for his client.]

Elektra in Ultimate college. From Marvel Comics: Wide-eyed Elektra
Natchios arrives at Columbia University with a fourth-degree black belt
in karate, but her first brush with a campus menace named Trey is nothing
compared to the romantic free-fall she plunges into when she meets Matthew
Murdock, a blind pre-law student... who is more than he appears.]
Yellow (Supersize HC, TP—6-issue mini; w Jeph Loeb; a Tim Sale). [A re-imagining of Daredevil's origin by the team behind the Batman maxis, The Long Halloween and Dark Victory. They have gone on to give the same kind of treatment in Spider-Man: Blue and, soon, Hulk: Grey. From Marvel Comics: "The measure of a man is not in how he gets knocked to the mat. It is in how he gets up." Those are the words Matthew Murdock's father lived and died by. Prizefighter Battlin' Jack Murdock's murder set into motion a chain of events that exploded with a new superhero swinging out of New York City's Hell's Kitchen—the blind acrobat Daredevil. In this retelling of the early career of The Man Without Fear, the Eisner Award-winning team of Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale (Superman for all Seasons, Batman: The Long Halloween) have taken an inspiring action-adventure story and blended it with a romantic comedy. The result, highlighted by Sale's dazzling ink washes and Matt Hollingsworth's spectacular color, is the heartwarming and heartbreaking story of two young people in love—Matthew Murdock and Karen Page. Included in this hardbound edition is a special sketchbook section of Sale's original artwork, and an introduction by Daredevil creator and comic-book legend Stan "The Man" Lee.] Gormuu's page.
