Daredevil Message Board

Dave Wallace

Apologies if this has been asked before, but does anyone know if there's going to be a second Daredevil omnibus to complete Bendis and Maleev's run on the book (ie. collecting "The Widow", "Golden Age", "Decalogue" and "The Murdock Papers").

I know that there's an Omnibus of the first couple of years of Brubaker's run due out this year, but I haven't seen any information on a release to bridge the gap between the two. I could always buy the TPBs, but I really like the OHC format, especially for this run.

(I know I could always buy the regular HC collections, but then I'd be doubling up on the "King of Hell's Kitchen" and "Wake Up" arcs...)

Thanks! I asked the same question on Bendis' Jinxworld forum and the first reply that I got was that they were pretty certain that a second Omnibus would be released at some point.

Since the first volume was made up of well over half of Bendis's run, it'd be nice to see "Daredevil: Ninja", "What If...Karen Page had Lived?", and maybe even the "Ultimate Marvel Team-Up" DD/Punisher story included in a second volume for completeness sake and to further justify what will certainly be a 100 dollar price tag. It could be like the second Miller Omnibus, which included DD appearances in other Miller books and mini series, in addition to the actual DD monthly title itself. I'm a huge nerd for collections like that.

Yeah, that What If issue would be a decent addition, as would "Ninja".

And if they waited until the End of Days project was complete, they could always throw that in too... Smile

Oh! I haven't read it in forever, so I don't remember how big a part he played, but maybe they could jam Bendis's "Secret War" in there too.

Although it would be super redundant, given that every Ultimate title gets reprinted on a regular basis, I'd still be all for a Bendis ULTIMATE Daredevil Omnibus, just for the hell of it, which would just be storylines and appearances from Ultimate X-Men, Ultimate Spidey, and Ultimate Team-Up. As much as Marvel has double/triple/quadruple-dipped in the past, I don't think they'd be above doing something like this.

Talking of which, did anyone read the most recent issue of Ultimate Spider-Man? Looks like we won't be seeing any more of Ultimate Daredevil... Crying or Very sad

I just remembered, Bendis did at least the first arc of the Elektra series from a few years back. That could be included too!

Oh yeah, I'd forgotten that.

Yeah, I'll definitely be buying the Brubaker omnibus.

Did anyone pick up the second Bendis DD omnibus yet? Amazon tells me that my copy has just shipped.
