5.0 out of 5 stars Good book but why does Amazon release graphic novels late Mar 19 2004

By "maxfoto2000"

Format:Hardcover

Why does Amazon release graphic novels late? Comic shops get them on time. Retail outlets like Borders and Barnes & Noble get them 1-2 weeks after the shops. Is this because some book merchants mistakenly still look down on comics?

Get your act together Amazon! People who read graphic novels deserve the same respect as people who read mainstream novels, which ship on time I might add!

If you're reading this and you want to get your graphic novels shipped on time and not one month late then tell Amazon so! If enough people demand it their distributors will comply!

5.0 out of 5 stars I agree with the reviewer below! April 24 2004

By A reader from

Format:Hardcover

I have not read this book, but the other reviewers state it to be good, so I look forward to doing so in the futre. I went to the relevant screento check out the reviews with a view to purchasing it when I am in a higher money earning position.

I was doing this when reviewing my cart, in which are ariably some 130 items - grahpic novels mainly, but also books and audio & visual media - to see if the items I want to buy in the way of graphic novels from Amazon were still showing on Amazon's site as not yet released, though both the publisher's web site, as well as the site of a large retail/mail order store in NYC had shown their being released at least a month ago, at the time of their release.

As the other person pointed out - both Barnes & Noble and Borders (as well as a Hastings store in town) get the books in long before Amazon.

I agree with the person below but never thought of these reviews as a forum. Sure, I'll buy (most of) my graphic novels from you, Mr. Amazon, when you say they are (eventually) released, but only because I want to take advantage of the free freight and discount you offer over my other sources.

However, each week I look forward to seeing what is on sale the following Wednesday as the titles appear @ 12:00 EST every Saturday on the aforementioned retailer's website. I am then let down to think I'll be waiting @ least a month to buy them from my vendor of choice - Amazon. Often I can't wait and buy them elsewhere. Lowest prices aren't always the reason to go to a vendor!

Come on - Amazon - I can't see any reason why a company your size should not get the new Graphic Novels on the same timely basis as other stores, just as you do with mainstream publishers' books, CDs and DVDs.

If you are serious enough about capturing the growing Graphic Novel business as you appear to be, then I think it evident it prudent to service it as you do the rest of your business, to both your and your customers' benefit!

5.0 out of 5 stars Daredevil Vol. 3 Hardcover Review Aug 1 2004

By N. Beitler - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase

Well, I just picked this book up recently and I have to say, this book is just really, really good. This book collects another year's worth of Daredevil comics #38-50, and is the third in a series of great Marvel Daredevil hardcovers. This one picks right up where the last one left off (as you would expect) and is the best yet. This time around, you get to see a lot of what Daredevil does in his regular life as a reporter and as a ladies' man. As in Vol. 2, Matt Murdock spends more time out of his costume than in it, but that's OK, because what he is doing out of costume is still very interesting.

Murdock gets a new girlfriend, who is also blind, he tries to defend a costumed vigilante in the courtroom, he works to stop the Owl from rebuilding the Kingpin's empire and marketing a new drug, he gets some revenge on Bullseye (who really had it coming), and, finally, he has a truly epic confrontation with Wilson Fisk. I won't say more than that, as I don't want to give away too much. It's just a really, really good read, and I would love it if they would base a movie on this storyline.

Alex Maleev, again, provides the artwork in this collection, other than for a few courtroom issues, where a fill-in artist did the duties. Maleev's artwork is far better than the fill-in artist, and I'm coming to expect his stlye on this book. Maleev's artwork is growing on me. It's not at all what I'd want to see on JLA or X-Men or Hulk, but it fits Daredevil just fine. He is very meticulous in his own way, and I appreciate the work he puts into his signature style.

Did I mention that this is a really, really good book? Now go get it for yourself! You won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Part of the best Daredevil run...ever? July 30 2006

By R. Schaefer - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Hardcover

Brian Bendis has been hit or miss for me in the past; New Avengers? not my thing; Ultimate Spiderman? Really good when it doesn't suck. But Daredevil... If I'm nor mistaken, it was Bendis's first superhero work, but it doesn't feel like it. It also doesn't really feel like a superhero comic. The fights feel earned; there aren't just slugfests every issue to appeal to the masses. There's as much, if not more, attention paid to Matt Murdock as there is to Daredevil, and his job as a lawyer. The trial of the White Tiger is absolutely enthralling, without the appearance of any masked antics. Don't get me wrong; superheroes are great, but I think Bendis understands the entirety of what is implied by that term. Another reviewer of Volume four said that Bendis is better than frank Miller; I agree. Miller was the tree, but Bendis is the forest.

And on top of that, the artist, Maleev, is, in my opinion, the best in the superhero comic industry right now. It's just so gritty, and real. I'm not of the opinion that there are, or have been, many good artists in the comic book industry. I don't understand the hype of Jack Kirby, Jim Lee looks like the comic equivalent to Motley Crue (All glamour), but I think Maleev knows what he's doing, and he does it well.

Read this book, enjoy it. It's the best you'll find from Marvel.

4.0 out of 5 stars title for review...or something April 9 2010

By Daniel Sweet - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase

Neat book, and found at a great price! Thanks! The cover was different than the one pictured, but is that really something to complain about, given the contents were the same?
A must-have for fans of ol' horn-head, easily one of the best runs on the series EVER.
