Daredevil: End of Days

In this stark, eight-issue Marvel maxi-series from 2014, writer Brian Michael Bendis and artist Alex Maleev reunite to tell a grim, definitive vision of the Man Without Fear’s final days. Set in a near-future New York, the story unfolds through the eyes of reporter Ben Urich as he investigates the brutal murder of Matt Murdock, piecing together the events that led to the hero’s end. Maleev’s moody, photo-realistic art grounds the saga in a gritty, noir atmosphere, while Bendis crafts a poignant eulogy that reflects on a lifetime of sacrifice. A must-read for fans of the creative team’s acclaimed earlier run on the character, it stands as a haunting, self-contained capstone.
