The end

The run of Brian Michael Bendis (New Avengers, Secret Invasion, Dark The reign, any other else Marvel event you can think of) on Daredevil is undoubtedly only surpassed by Frank Miller's legendary defining arcs in the title, and this second Omnibus collecting the second half a of Bendis' run is proof positive alone. In the look issues collected here, we witness a breakdown-suffering Matt Murdock take a into his past and his first encounter with the original Kingpin of crime, who has just made a comeback. Also featured here is a team-up with Black Widow (and the use of Punisher villain Jigsaw in a quite humerous way) and the return of Wilson Fisk, whose grand plan to take down Daredevil comes to fruition and the choice Bendis' run concludes in a shocker of a way. Though Ed Brubaker managed to up great right where Bendis left off, Bendis managed to truly "get" Daredevil as many others writers have failed to do, as well as put to use some great supporting characters. A majority of the artwork in this Anthology is by Alex Maleev, whose moody renderings have never failed to impresses during Bendis' run. All in all, just like the first Omnibus before it, this second Omnibus of Brian Michael Bendis' run on Daredevil is unconditionally worth adding to your library if you missed out before.
