Senses are challenged as The Man Without Fear must face off against secret societies that would preferably see his demise. Daredevil stands against his enemies and unknowingly sets the stage for THE OMEGA EFFECT!
I feel like all of the essential information is given here for a new reader, but because it's impossible for me to forget what I already know, it's possible that I may be unconsciously filling in the gaps. Regardless, it's still a fun Daredevil comic that should pique a new reader's interest. If you're a fan of superhero comics then you should be reading this. Read Full Review
And when you think about it just for a second, it's all the ways Julian Assange, when he first appeared, long before the sexual assault charges that might see him extradited to Sweden, originally reminded us of a kind of DD of cyberspace. And while personalities in the real world often fade with time or because of rooted in the real world of human foibles, icons are forever. For Mark to reclaim that original fire in DD himself, it's just the Best. Easter. Ever. Read Full Review
A great jump on point for one of the best comics available today. Read Full Review
I swear, this comic did not seem like a regular sized, $3 Marvel book... It almost seemed like two different stories, the Matt Murdock one in jail, and the DD one, with the criminal organizations. This is what a point one issue should be! A story heavy comic that basically fills newer readers in on who the main character is(Matt Murdock), what he does(fights crime as a lawyer and costumed hero), and what the main storyline is(the Omegadrive stuff). So while we didn't really cover any new ground for somebody like me, who has been following this series since the first issue, I'd think this was a great comic for newer fans to the series/character, and really, isn't that what these point one issue SHOULD be about.

Not hard to understand why Mark Waid received two Eisner award nominations for his work on this series. Read Full Review
Waid collectors and DD completists will want this, and anyone else picking it up will get at least a feel for why Daredevil is garnering so much praise these days, based on Waid's tidy, imaginative scripting. But, honestly, both newbies and regulars can skip this one and not miss anything crucial. Read Full Review
The Omega Effect is the best chapter of the story so far
Fantastic twist, but it's hard to shake the feeling that it would have been perfect if Rivera or Martin had illustrated it, whereas under Pham's pencil it's just OK
So Matt just let the guy die in the end? Not very heroic of him.
