This review is from: Daredevil: Gangwar (Paperback)

I bought this book and Frank Miller DD Vol.2 at the same time. Even though i enjoyed the reading it, I was dissapointed to find that all of the issues printed in this are foud in Frank Miller DD Vol.2. So if you already have vol.2 dont get this.

This review is from: Daredevil: Gangwar (Paperback)

Before "The Dark Knight Returns", before "Sin City," Frank Miller cut his teeth on old Marvel standby Daredevil.

"Gang War" collects some of Miller's early work on this title, which features Daredevil's first conflict with the man who would become his most implacable foe, Wilson Fisk, the Kingpin of Crime.

Miller's writing and art, while already in the upper echelons of the genre, fall utterly within standard comic book conventions. This is clearly a look at Miller during his formative years, as he learned the ropes in the medium he would later revolutionize.

Great stuff if you're interested in the evolution of the artist.

5.0 out of 5 stars Some of the best ever Daredevil comics -- or comics, period!, June 21, 2000

Frank Miller's work on Daredevil contained in this graphic novel ranks among some of the best comics I've ever read -- alongside (if not better than) such comic book masterpieces as Claremont's & Byrne's X-Men, Alan Moore's Watchmen & Swamp Thing, and more recent works as Batman (The Long Halloween) and Kingdom Come. These Daredevil comics still contain some of the innocence and naivete of the late Silver Age comics, but the artwork is beautiful, the characterization is completely believable, and the stories are nothing short of amazing. Frank Miller really set a new standard when these issues first came out. If you want to read comics storytelling at its best, treat yourself to the comics in this graphic novel!
