Here's a confession...I read the trades (thank you library) of their Daredevil run and really enjoyed them for the most part. I've always like Moon Knight, and I think Bendis does his best stuff at the street level characters.
quote:Originally posted by Chief Lardy: Maleev is beyond awesome! I wasn't gonna buy Scarlet just for him, though. sampled the first issue and was more annoyed than impressed with Bendis's choices. But yeah, the two were awesome on DD. I've never been into Moon Knight but might give this a look.
quote:Originally posted by Dev Em: Maleev is awesome. I personally put him along with Bill Senkannotspellhisnamewich as a totally different level of artist.
Chalk me up as another big Maleev fan! I loved what he did on Daredevil, as well as Spider Woman.
You'll note in my pull list I'm buying Scarlet now but it's on the fence. I initially liked what Bendis was doing narrative-wise, but the overall story (a revolution) just isn't working for me. I've kind of just been buying it for Maleev's gorgeous work.
I'll definitely be getting Moon Knight. These two work great together and Maleev's art should be fantastic with Moon Knight's awesome look. Bendis usually does a good job writing--he's exactly like Geoff Johns, but Marvel's version. Great writer who does a lot of things right but also has some really annoying habits. Also has perhaps too much control of his universe (like Geoff) and is also the darling of fandom (like Geoff).
Dev, would love to hear your opinions on the DD trades you read over in that thread!

I'll have to get them again and reread...not a bad chore at all there. Hopefully in the next week or so I can start going through them again. I will say this...I'll be gushing about the art the whole way through.

Lots of cool creator-owned projects being announced at CCI!
"Saga" by BKV and Fiona Staples is one I'll certainly check out! I miss having a monthly Vaughn title like Y or Runaways.
"Thief of Thieves" has a great premise and approach creatively with a rotating writer team. Especially since my faves Nick Spencer and Robert Kirkman are involved. I'm looking for 'different approaches' to comics structurally so this could be fun.
Also, is anyone picking up Witchdoctor? The preview story in WD was good but it might not be my cup of tea.
