Summary: Daredevil finally gets some respect...
Comment: 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
Rating: 4
Summary: One of the best comic to novel books around
Comment: 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: Absolutley Astounding! D.D. kicks a$$ in "Hell's Kitchen"
Comment: 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.
