Miller's run on Daredevil, including Born Again

Okay, this was very good. Damnit, now I have to praise Miller

but yeah, great storytelling, very fluid, sometimes very powerful, and often quite clever in plotting. Great villains, Kingpin as Magnificent Bastard is a great figure, and I always find Bullseye to be a blast. Elektra is a good... promise of a character. And yeah, this is all despite the creeping misogyny, which, to my surprise, was hardly the worst on Elektra, despite the fridging, but more on everyone else with a female body. (I read Miller's first run in translation - this one was good for a change

- and they put a couple of O'Neil penned issues written with advices from Miller or something, and I don't think I can find it in myself to forgive what the narrative does to Heather. Also there was Daredevil - Love & War which was just bad.)

and, err, I have more to post on X-Men stuff, but I think I'm going to make a separate post for it, considering, sorry for the spamming factor ^^
