11/03 - [Liu Podcast]
Forthcoming Black Widow writer, Marjorie Liu, sat down with Marvel.com to discuss the series. Download the podcast here:
(And she answers a question that I sent in... namely, will Daredevil appear in the series?)
08/03 - [DD506 Variant]
Marvel has posted some early looks at Iron Man by Design variant covers, and the one for Daredevil 506 is posted... have a look!
07/03 - [New Bendis TPB?]
In all the crazy Amazon Omnibus pricing from this weekend (what, you missed it?), one thing that revealed itself was a curious page for "Daredevil By Brian Michael Bendis & Alex Maleev Ultimate Collection Book 1 TPB (Paperback)". It will be 488 pages and be available in July. The page count suggests it will be about half the size of the first omnibus... so is Marvel reprinting all of the Bendis/Maleev run in fewer, larger TPB's?
05/03 - [Black Widow Saga]
Marvel.com has posted a free digital comic detailing the history of the Black Widow, just in time for her new series, coming next month!
UPDATE: In the new Cup o' Joe at CBR, there's an exclusive look at some pages from Black Widow #1, by Daniel Acuna. Really nice!

09/02 - [Movie Ideas]
As someone who liked the first Daredevil movie (and yes, I do think the director's cut is better and should have been the movie in theatres), there are, of course, elements I want to see in the new movie (if there is going to be one!).
Namely:
* No CGI. Real stunts, with parkour.
* A real score, no rock music interludes.
* A consistent tone, throughout, based on a "street-level" hero, not
Spider-Man.
The worst thing that happened to the first movie was Spider-Man. That movie's success had Fox trying to change DD into that movie, with added CGI and romance that wasn't needed. I still think DD would work better as a TV show.
Obviously I know some behind-the-scenes things going on, so hopefully soon I can share them with you.

16/01 - [14 years!]
Good morning, and welcome to Year 14 of ManWithoutFear.com! I've been very lucky with this website and the simplest thing I can say is "thanks" to each fan and Daredevil creator who has ever taken the time to visit or write to me.
If you've checked out the front page, you may notice a new addition for Year 14... namely the Blog Network. I asked Christine, Alice and Robert, of The Other Murdock Papers, Daredevil-A-Day, and The Matt Murdock Chronicles, respectively, if they would be interested in being a part of it, and they graciously accepted. Be sure to visit their blogs for their unique spins on Daredevil. You can see their latest updates on the front page.
Be sure to visit later this week (hopefully) when I'll post a new interview with a major Daredevil creator. Fingers crossed.
We've got a lot to look forward to this year. Trust me.
Once again, thank you for allowing me to do this crazy thing called ManWithoutFear.com.

11/01 - [Diggle podcast]
Midtown Comics has posted their podcast with DD writer Andy Diggle, where he talks about DD, Shadowland, Losers, Thunderbolts and more!
07/01 - [New Widow series]
Just in time for the Iron Man 2 movie, Marvel is set to launch a new Black Widow ongoing series... written by Marjorie Liu and drawn by Daniel Acuna!
01/01 - [Happy New Year!]
Lots to look forward to this year, as 2010 will bring some interesting Daredevil-related comics.
In the regular title, Antony Johnston will be helping Andy Diggle, starting with issue #505. Marco Checchetto will also be helping out on the #505-507 arc "The Left Hand Path". If you're ever studied the left and right hand path belief systems, you know that Left-Hand Path believers ultimately want to be "god-like" (or think they are already). Think it applies to Daredevil? Hmmm...
The mysterious "Shadowland" book?/event? will also be revealed and it should involve Daredevil and other "street-level" type heroes. Billy Tan is doing the artwork, but no writer has been announced yet. Wonder who it could be? Hmmm...
"End of Days" should finally be getting back on track for release. Brian Michael Bendis and David Mack are writing, with Klaus Janson, Bill Sienkiewicz, Alex Maleev and Mack as well, doing artwork.
The special "Invincible Gene Colan" will be released in February, so please pick up the book to help support "The Dean". The second Brubaker/Lark omnibus is also scheduled for the Spring as well.
For the web site, I hope you've enjoyed the changes and additions last year. I appreciate all the comments and emails I received. This month will be the 14th anniversary of the site! I am very happy that I had the chance to interview Shane McCarthy, Martin Redmond, Alex Irvine, Tomm Coker, and Justin F. Gabrie. I am also glad everyone enjoyed the special Fall From Grace retrospective with Dan Chichester, Scott McDaniel and Hector Collazo. It was a lot of work, but it was worth it! Sometimes this site feels like a full-time job.
I wanted to say thanks to the outgoing DD creative team of Ed Brubaker, Michael Lark, Stefano Gaudiano, Chris Eliopolous, Marko Djurdjevic, Warren Simons and Alejandro Arbona. They let me help out with issue #500, and I will always be grateful for that opportunity. I also had the chance to meet Michael Lark and Marko Djurdjevic and I'm happy to say, they are top-notch people in "real life" as well.
I also wanted to say thanks to the current team, who have been very supportive of my site. Yes, after all these years, it still amazes me that these guys would even care to know who I am.
On a personal note, there's no news to report on my job search... but I'm staying positive.
Thank you for visiting!
