Man Without Fear #1

Overall,Man Without Fear #1 does a really good job of grabbing your attention and making you pay attention to the internal struggle of Matt Murdock while helping you understand just how hed mad it as the Devil of Hells Kitchen all these years. MacKays writing coupled with Beyruths art is a beautiful sight to behold and Im honestly excited for future issues. Read Full Review

A brilliant start to be sure. If you didn't have the chance to read any of Charles Soule's run this book does not punish you for it. Read Full Review

This creates shifts in tone that, instead of jarring distraction, serve as attention grabbing tension. Combined with the twisted visuals of Murdock's comic history, the dialogue was well crafted and made for a sickeningly satisfying read. If you're going to do this kind of book every so often it might as well be as creative and interesting as this one. Read Full Review

Though for me, the penciling was just alright, this book is incredibly well written and Im already addicted. Super glad this book is weekly! Read Full Review

I was not the biggest fan of how the "Death of Daredevil" storyline ended. But I like what we are getting from it with Man Without Fear #1. The insight into Matt Murdock's mind and his friendship with Foggy Nelson was a great start to the five-issue weekly mini-series. Read Full Review

While its reasonable to assume that Matt Murdock will eventually wake from his coma, its very hard to predict how Matt will emerge from it. Another question left asked by the book is what his mental state will be like, which is certainly something that will keep hardcore Hornhead fans coming back for more. If youre into Daredevil, or want to know what happened after Charles Soule left Matt on the operating table, definitely check this book out. Read Full Review

MAN WITHOUT FEAR #1 is a great start to this new five-issue run. We're probing deep into what's at the core of Daredevil as a character what makes him tick, and whether he's truly the Man Without Fear. Read Full Review

Man Without Fear #1 is the first issue in a five part series about Daredevil and what it means to be the man without fear. The story is good and the art is fantastic. Read Full Review

Foggy Nelson waits at Matt's bedside while a potentially-important struggle plays out inside the hero's mind. The setup is solid, but the execution seems to be lacking so far. Without enough depth, particularly in the script, this comic falls into a Catch-22: It's not eventful enough to captivate a casual reader and not meaningful enough to satisfy a dedicated Daredevil fan. Read Full Review

This comic is mostly a bridge between Soule's Daredevil and the upcoming Chip Zdarsky run, but it's also a decent Daredevil comic on its own right. Read Full Review

It's fine. It's inoffensive, but it doesn't feel essential. I don't hate that I read it, and I liked Beyruth's art a fair amount. Read Full Review

Overall, it just feels like Man Without Fear is killing time waiting for the next run with the character to begin. It doubles down on what makes Matt Daredevil and vice versa, but it’s not really doing anything we haven’t seen before. It’s cool to see the character coupled with more horror imagery than we’re used to, but it’s hard to know exactly who this is for. Diehards will feel like this is well-trodden ground at this point, while new readers are forced to make a lot of inferences about recent events to get a handle on the story. Despite going for it visually, Man Without Fear feels woefully indifferent, and that’s probably the worst thing a piece of art can be. Read Full Review

Man Without Fear #1 serves as a bland, formulaic bridge between two volumes of Daredevil. Read Full Review

A largely perfunctory and characterless next step for Daredevil, this issue tries out some cool tricks but fails to really commit to any of them. Read Full Review

I wanted to like Man Without Fear but there's so little to admire about it. Read Full Review

With its first issue, "Man Without Fear" #1 doesn't present a compelling reason for this miniseries to exist. Read Full Review

I thought this was really good, actually. I like the idea behind it. With Matt Murdock confronting his Daredevil persona and his need to save everyone. The visuals are great with muscle-Daredevil and bones-Daredevil representing two sides of Matt Murdock. It's very introspective and I don't mind that. I think because of the way it was marketed, with people expecting Daredevil to actually be dead, it's getting a little more flack than it deserves. I also think a lot of people are passing it up because there's a Daredevil ongoing on its way. But I think it's fun to have these types of stories, even if it's not big and crazy. The art was a little rough in places but nothing that stood out as particularly bad. And I loved seeing all the incarna tions of Daredevil. From the Frank Miller year one costume, to the ridiculous 90s armored costume, to the Beast costume from Shadowland. You definitely get more out of this, if you're a big fan of Daredevil. more

To people saying this wasnt that great, I'm not sure what you read. Classic DD right here

I didn't read the last of Soule's run that leads directly into this but I know what happened. This was pretty good. Reminded me a lot of season 3 of the DD show though that is playing largely off of Born Again. This breaking down of Matt to his core isn't unique but the chase between him and his fear was cool. The art wasn't my favorite but I'm kind of used to seeing amazing artists in DD runs so they have spoiled me.

Pretty cool issue, but this kind of introspective/war within himself has been done in DD comics many times before, we’ll have to see how this series sets itself apart

I think this was cool with maybe some things that I didn’t care for but yeah, for the most part good.

The whole thing is a coma fever, and is trying to be deeper than it really is.
