My wife recently got into Daredevil (started with #158), she finished Born Again a few days ago and is now into the Nocenti run. Watching her reactions to reading BA was a delight, she was especially moved by the revelation of Maggie's identity. For my money, Matt walking into Kingpin's office ("Mr. Fisk is expecting you") is one of the most gripping moments in comics.

It started when I was deployed, I was having her send me comics and since she was bored a lot of the time she started reading them before she mailed them. I got lucky in that it was "her idea" to get into them, keeping me from having to push.

It did back in the 90s-early 00s. Robinson just made a contract with DC where they couldn’t use the character without his permission and that really screwed over the momentum the character had in terms of becoming mainstream. And now we have Stargirl who does a lot of what Starman did but from the perspective of a teen girl which is unique for DC so there’s no reason for DC to go out of their way to get more Starman stuff in books and other media.

First half of the run would be how you say that. It's all one run. But no you'd be an idiot to think Born Again is the best thing Frank ever made. It's script is endlessly densly layered.

Loeb/Sale is the best example of a writer and artist elevating each other. Neither of them is particularly noteworthy on their own (Loeb's Superman run was fine, but it wasn't a "must read" or anything), but together they consistently did the best work of their careers.

Shut up /pol/, if you like Daredevil so much go read his current ongoing and you will see the church is portrayed in a positive light. It's also been portrayed in a positive light throughout the Netflix series. It's kind of hard to portray church in a completely negative light when your character is a Catholic and his mother is a nun.

Marvel is rendered iconic less so by singular runs/stories and more so by the overall vibe and interconnectedness of 60s Marvel. Lee's guiding hand collected so many individually good runs, put them together and their proximity to each other turned into them into one all time story. It's why DC has more individual stories you can point to while Marvel is more of a longtime vibe.

Robinson was a faggot who didn't want anyone else touch his toys and salted the earth on the way out the door to the franchise.

He only let TWO other writers use Jack (Jerry Ordway in a crossover with Power of Shazam) and Geoff Johns (who got to use Jack when he took over JSA with issue #6 and used Jack for about eight issues before he had to write him out).

Also, it wasn't that good and was ground zero for the cancerous hipster bullshit corrupting comics these days.

Looking at the state of things in 2020, I kinda feel like that was the right approach. If you don't firmly push people away from the D-Lister you're writing good stories with, some hack absolutely will pull a Mettal or something.

Sadly Fall of the Hammer has never been properly reprinted. All of the various TPBs for early day 2099 Marvel books only reprint their book's chapter.

No one gives a shit about Mikael PERIOD, outside of Robinson.

Robinson even brought Mikaal back for Cry For Justice/his JLA run and tried his fucking damnest to push Mikaal and Congorrilla as the new "Blue and Gold" team, ala Blue Beetle and Booster Gold and failed miserably at that, as fans didn't give a shit about Mikaal and just wanted more of Donna and Dick palling around.

Problem with Punisher 2099 is that the first couple of issues are a decent set-up for a cyberpuk version of Punisher. Then Mills throws it away because he hates Punisher and got pissy that his stuff he did to please the editors (IE the first 4-5 issues) was well received by readers who Mills hated.

Funny thing is that Born Again was supposed to be the series finale for Daredevil. Sales were garbage after Miller left and it was one of several books cancelled to make room for the New Universe line. The story was even originally titled "Apocalypse" (which was retained on some promotional posters for the arc released prior to publication) to symbolize Miller destroying Daredevil's life in the originally planned ending (Matt and Karen going into hiding/faking their deaths to prevent Kingpin sending another Nuke-type assassin from killing innocents to draw Matt out into the open).

But pre-orders were through the roof and were enough to keep the book from being canceled. Though Barry Windsor Smith fucked things up immediately afterwords, resulting in Steve Englehart bailing on the title and after a cavalcade of fill-in stories (including Christopher Priest and Mark Gruenwald), fill-in writer Anne Nocenti ended up getting the book full time.
