Not that long ago, we found out that Mark Waid’s run on “Daredevil” was the longest unbroken run of any writer or artist ever on the character. That alone is a cause to celebrate, as those types of runs are happening with an increasing lack of frequency in recent years, but the fact that his work on the book with Paolo Rivera, Marcos Martin and especially Chris Samnee has been so lauded and award winning gives you another reason. The book is damn tremendous, and Waid and Samnee have been just knocking it out of the park since they paired up.

And now, this:

DAREDEVIL #13

MARK WAID (W) • CHRIS SAMNEE (A/C)

VARIANT COVER BY PHIL NOTO

THE END BEGINS HERE!

• Mark Waid and Chis Samnee begin the climactic final chapter of their beloved, Eisner Award Winning run with the return of one of Matt Murdock’s oldest and (now) scariest enemies.

32 PGS./Rated T+ …$3.99

The final chapter of Waid and Samnee’s run is beginning in February, and that brings all of the sadness in the world to us. I mean, this is one of the most gorgeous, endlessly entertaining books on the market, and its covers – perhaps most notably this month’s joint from Samnee and colorist Matt Wilson – are perpetually amongst the best in the business. While I’m sure this isn’t the end for ol’ Hornhead (after all, he does have a TV series coming soon), it is the end for Waid and Samnee. They will be greatly missed, but until then, we’ll enjoy every moment we have with them like it’s our last.
