Summary: Bullseye is THE VILLIAN
Review: Bullseye just plain rocks. I usually only read Daredevil stuff with Bullseye in it for that simple reason, it has Bullseye in it. Bullseye, is undoubtedly, the coolest villian out there and this just shows how plain ruthless he is. The book now has me hooked to Daredevil and I am an avid fan of the comic book. The Prologue will have you hooked in mere minutes and you will remain hooked until you have finished it. A Daredevil classic.

Summary: One of the best comic to novel books around
Review: First off, no book is perfect so, no one gets five stars. This
one however, deserves at least four and 1/2 stars.
Golden is on the money with this story. DD is presented in all
his dark, brooding, [...]kicking glory. As others have written,
the supporting characters are well done and true to 'life'.
Personally, the high point for me is the villians. The Kingpin
is an ultra-confident mastermind and Golden writes him that way.
Bullseye is perfect and is exactly what Frank Miller created. Completely insane and deadly to the extreme.
As a whole, this book ranks behind the novelizations of Kingdom
Come and No Man's Land but, better than everything else by far.

Summary: One of my all time favorite characters, DD is a crime story.
Review: Frank Miller's run on Daredevil was one of the extraordinary moments in comics. This picks up where Frank left off, literally. It was a great pleasure to write the Kingpin, Bullseye, Karen Page, Foggy Nelson, the Black Widow and, of course, Daredevil. Perhaps what I enjoyed most was the challenge of writing about a character who truly cannot see, but whose other senses are so acute. This is, first and foremost, a crime story. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Summary: Best Daredevil story in years
Review: Not liking the lack of story direction going on in recent Daredevil comics, this novel by Chris Golden was a pleasent surprise and a good reading pleasure. He treated the characters very well here. Matt, Karen,and Foggy come about as real human beings with likeable and strong personalities. Good use of DD's rogue cast of villians like the Kingpin and Bullseye, even regular DD friends like reporter Ben Urich and the Black Widow make apperances. All in all, a great book. I hear more Daredevil novels will be published soon, I hope they are just as good as this novel is.

Summary: Absolutley Astounding! D.D. kicks a$$ in "Hell's Kitchen"
Review: This book was incredible! I read a few reviews on this book and it sounded decent. I picked it up at the local public library one morning... and finished it that night!
Golden does an excellent job with character development. I liked that D.D. must reluctantly go to the one man who nearly destroyed his life and wrecked his Law Firm for help...Wilson Fisk a.k.a The Kingpin! Bullseye is portrayed as he should be,heartless and ruthless. Golden colorfully depicts the human aspects of Matt Murdock/D.D. and his inner turmoil between his dual identities. Great cast of characters Karen Page, Foggy Nelson, Kingpin, Bullseye, and... a reformed "Gladiator". The climax is gripping and wraps up the story in a nice, tight package. Very intense, bloody fight between 'ol Hornhead and Bullseye in the end.
I now own this book. It's out of print and can be hard to get, but you MUST, AT ALL COSTS, read this book! Daredevil fan or not, it will NOT fail you. If you can, buy it. You WILL read it more than once! I have.

Summary: Daredevil finally gets some respect...
Review: This is a really tight book. Daredevil has always been a cool character that no one (besides Miller) ever really seemed to "get" (and the lackluster movie won't help). But Mr. Golden really gave it to him. This is book is constantly exciting and tense. I would have liked to have more with the Kingpin, but he isn't a main point of the book. The Gladiator sub-plot feels useless, as there is no real meaning to it and the reasoning behind it is weak. But, this book DOES have Bullseye (one of the coolest characters EVER), and that always means it'll be interesting. Here are my rankings:1) Daredevil: Predator's Smile
2) Hulk: What Savage Beast
3) Fantastic Four: To Free Atlantis
4) Iron Man: Armor Trap (forgot about this one last time, sorry)
5) Ultimate Spider-Man
6) Spider-Man: Carnage in New York
7) all the other ...ones

Summary: Daredevil shines in this new story.
Review: This saga of Daredevil is very gripping in the terms of its realsim and portrayal of the main characters. Golden's take on all of the Marvel characters in this book and others coincide directly with the way they are portrayed in the comics. I think his books are very good
