It Is Over!!!!!

[Alex(sadly)Maleev]

I can't believe it! I just drew the last line on a Daredevil page. Done. Finito la comedia. My farewell song.
To all who read the book, supported us, loved us, hated us. To all I bow. It has been a great run, my best work, my best job with some of the best professionals some of which turned close buddies later in life. It took me to many places in the world, it made new friends for me, it opened great opportunities and a few awards.

Now I pack my bags and off to Hawaii tomorrow morning to join Bendis and the rest of the crew.
Thank you.

[MIKE D]

Thanks for your half of a classic run, Alex. The two of you will be missed, but you are ending on a high note, and what you've done will be talked about for years.

Extra special thanks for putting me in "The Golden Age".

[noble]

Thanks for a hell of a ride!

I'm sure this is going down in the history books as one of the great runs.

Now I'm going to go sit in the corner and cry myself to sleep.

[Simps]

Congrats sir.

We appreciate your amazing work.

Now add me on myspace. ;)

[NicW79]

Speaking on behalf of Pat, we'll miss your work a lot. DD is the first book he got me into, and I fell in love with the art more so than anything else.

Thanks for the great work, Mr. Maleev, and congrats on an excellent run!

Enjoy Hawaii!

- Nic (w/Pat)

[Donal DeLay]

Good luck on Batman!

[amy]

I'm new DD but what I have read has been awesome. I have been amazed at the story and the art.


Thank you for all of your hard work.

[Xander Boune]

Your work on Daredevil is sublime. It was great to see your skills as an artist get better and better throughout the run, and you'll be sorely missed on the title. I can't believe you're going to have me reading a Spider-Woman book.

[Howlett]

I only just managed to get the first half of your run and I'll be getting the rest in a few weeks.

I may not have been with you guys from the start like most people here but you will be missed.

[Simps]

I just hope Marvel sticks "The Golden Age", "Decalouge" and "The Murdock Papers" all in one hardcover.

[mike black]

One of the best runs I've ever read. Thanks, Alex!

[Ryan_ZOOM_Turner]

Good luck on Batman!
:lol:

[Rod Nunley]

In my opinion, the best Daredevil comics ever were drawn by you. Thanks for one hell of a story.

[Ben]

*sad*

[Ray G.]

It was an incredible run, man. I can't wait to see how it all ends.

[Mighty Clintro]

It took a while for your style to grow on me but after it did man the book won't be the same without it.

[innocentboy]

we will be missing you on Daredevil, sir.

to be honest, i've never actually read an issue of Daredevil, i just looked at the pictures.

awaiting the standing ovation when it's in my hands.

God bless,

Thank you.Your art was a very strong part of me buying the trades and enjoying the books. I have had major problems with some aspects of the writing but the art was always well done. I look forward to the Spiderwoman book. Im just a hater but I do love your art. ;)

[RODGER]

you are the man!!!!!

[Allen Y]

Thank you, times over.

Allen

[Ashton]

you and Bendis have done a wonderful job. but it was your artwork that hooked me on reading Daredevil for life and I can't wait to see your rendition of Spider-woman.

[Black Roman]

:cry: I am so going to miss you, you guys made me like Daredevil., . . . wait aren't you doing Spider-woman Origin?

[Thommy Melanson]

"Sunrise, sunset..."

You've done alot you should be proud of, mister. You've given Murdock some of his most classic images since Miller's run.

Too bad he can't see them ;)

So when is that Plastic Man pulp/noir arc with Bendy kicking off? ;)

Have a blast in Hawaii and make sure to knock on the Bendis' hotel room door incessantly at strange hours, just to interrupt their renewed vows "squeaky-squeaky" time ;)

[Howlett]

:cry: I am so going to miss you, you guys made me like Daredevil., . . . wait aren't you doing Spider-woman Origin?
No. He and Bendis are doing the ongoing.

Spider-Woman: Origin is being done by Bendis, Brian Reed and the Luna Brothers.

[Alex(sadly)Maleev]

I am tearing up over here.

[Howlett]

I am tearing up over here.
Ya big baby :p

[Ryan_ZOOM_Turner]

Congratulations on a great run. I am looking forward to seeing more great work from you.

[Simps]

I am tearing up over here.

It was a phenominal run, guy. Now just promise us no fill-ins on Spider-Woman.

[Fizz]

It's been a great run. Your art gave the book a really unique look that was a perfect match for the stories being told. I'll miss you on DD, but I'm definitely looking forward to Spider-Woman.

[justjeffery]

*stands up and applauds*

without even reading the end of it, I stand by my original statement. Yes, Frank Millers run was THE run on Daredevil since the characters creation.. until now. Daredevil was very possibly going the way of so many other Marvel mainstays... down the drain into the guest-star spots of oblivion because no one was treating the character the way it could have been done.. until now. Congrats on an amazing run on an amazing book and for shaping the future of a character that could have very easily just fallen off the map.

[innocentboy]

arg.
Daredevil just won't be the same anymore.

God bless,

thank you for helping to make my favorite character the best character again!

i look forward to your next project.

[Hypester23]

Thanks for contributing to making a great book. I'll be following you over to Spider-Woman as well!

[Olivier E.]

Now go draw me an Elektra ongoing :Please:

[Raphael J]

Congratulations Alex. Thanks for producing such an outstanding piece of comics history. Your and Brian's run on Daredevil has really shown me the calibur of what a monthly comic can produce. This has been one of my favorite comic series and and I will always enjoy them. Thanks for all the fun and I look forward to any other comics you and Brian produce.

[SimiBoyz]

I put off getting this for so long because I didn't care for the character.

As soon as i picked up a couple of back issues I was hooked and it became my favo(u)rite title.

Thanks for all your hard work, it's been a pleasure to read and look at. Beautifully drawn. You will be missed.

[copypastepuke]

alex maleev is the king of ass, and of comic art ass!

[Daniel K.]

Thanks for everything. I jumped on late, but I enjoied every last page.

[Victor Cabanelas]

Thanks to YOU, Alex. I had to stop buying this one for money issues a long time ago, but reckon it´s on my "to buy asap" list.

And your digitally painted covers kick so much ass!

[S!]

Im just sorry I started reading the book late in your run. Luckliky I baught the full run on ebay.
Bendis' script kept me in wanting more.
Maleev's art was amazing. I cant describe it. just brilliant. I got a picture of spider-man (black and white) that you drew on my computer. I wish i had the actual artwork so i can out it up on my wall.

Thank you Bendis and Maleev for Daredevil. I dont know what else to say. We'll miss you and hope that one day we will see you back.

In the meantime any chance of seeing you on Spider-Man? The both of ya :)

[Pat Loika]

Didn't see this here...

But I posted this in Alex's forum.

Like everyone else here, thanks for all the great work you've done.

And now:

:Plays taps on the bugle:

[V-Man]

I've never been so happy and sad at the same time. Congratulations Maleev. We will miss your Daredevil, but I know I look forward extremely to what the future holds.

[JABSEN]

Finally,Lark can do his thing.

Kidding,man.Thanks for one of the best comic runs ever.

Look forward to Spider-Woman

[Alex(sadly)Maleev]

if i kick the shit out of lark will you stay on DD? :-P
you don't have to. His ass is already kicked.

[The Cheap-Arse Film Critic]

Because of your work on this book, I will pick up anything you put your name to.

Thank you.

[Joe Henderson]

Hell of a run. Congratulations, man, on being one of the few artists to stick with a book for so long and really make it your own.

[Alex(sadly)Maleev]

I love you guys.

[Simps]

Oh wait...Maleev? Sorry, I thought this was 1983 and you were Miller. Nevermind.

[Alex(sadly)Maleev]

Oh wait...Maleev? Sorry, I thought this was 1983 and you were Miller. Nevermind.
You are born in 1985 silly goose. Probably while I was making out with some high school girl.

[amy]

Because of your work on this book, I will pick up anything you put your name to.

Thank you.


I loved looking at Maleev's work before I ever read DD. He never disappoints and though I'm not certain if I will read Spider Woman (not sure about the character) I will look at his work.

[Alex(sadly)Maleev]

I loved looking at Maleev's work before I ever read DD. He never disappoints and though I'm not certain if I will read Spider Woman (not sure about the character) I will look at his work.
I am not sure either, but we will make it work, don't worry.

[amy]

I am not sure either, but we will make it work, don't worry.


Then I place my blind faith in you and Bendis. :)

[Simps]

You are born in 1985 silly goose. Probably while I was making out with some high school girl.

You are the Ass man.

[ds9]

I love you guys.I knew you loved me. :scared:

[Alex(sadly)Maleev]

I knew you loved me. :scared:
Today is a special day. Cherish.

[Jim T.]

Truly a run for the ages. I hope someday to be telling my comic book reading kids that I remember those Maleev issues and how cool it was to get one in your hands every month. They'll likely look up from their wrist-implanted computers and wonder what the fuck I'm talking about but still....

Congrats!

[WinterRose]

Yeah I'll add my thanks here for your artwork as well. While I'm sad to know you guys won't be doing DD anymore, I look quite forward to what you're doing next. You are doing something next. Oh JESUS FUCK DON'T GODDAM STOP DRAWING! AHEM. Scuse me. ANyway. Thanks for your lines.

[Amos Moses]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Don't leave me!

[Black Roman]

No. He and Bendis are doing the ongoing.

Spider-Woman: Origin is being done by Bendis, Brian Reed and the Luna Brothers.


Oh . . . close enough! Yeah! Time to make spider-woman cool too.

Today is a special day. Cherish.you old softy

[Criden]

Thank you so much for all of your hard work. :) YOU ROCK. :D

[Thudpucker]

Without your art this book could never have been the great work it is. You're one of the best artists to ever work in comics Alex, thank you so much for giving it to us. You've got a fan for life, and I'm looking forward to following you to the next book :thumb:

[t00lverine]

Thanks, Alex. Your run on DD was tremendous.

[Tay]

Thank you, Maleev!! :D

[Shannon Chenoweth]

Congrats on an awesome run. I will very much miss you and Bendis on DD. Thanks!

[Brandon191]

Alex, you and Bendis together were responsible for one of my favourite runs in comics I've ever read. You have a fan for life.

[Michael John Wheeler]

Thank you, Alex. Your Daredevil is the definitive one for me. I love the way that you draw the character, and I love your Matt Murdock even more. I'll be following you and Bendis wherever you go.

Lark has a lot to live up to.

[Katamari]

Your art is Daredevil to me :cry:


if it wasnt for the cover i saw just after watching the movie i dont think i would have ever read it.

Good luck with the new stuff.

[Gavin]

I just hope Marvel sticks "The Golden Age", "Decalouge" and "The Murdock Papers" all in one hardcover.

Yes, I want all of the Bendis/Maleev run in hardcover. That's how I have all the rest of them. Thanks for getting me into Daredevil. It's been a great ride.

[bairdduvessa]

your art and bendid' writing actualy made me get into the comic! I look foward to everything else you do.

[PeterSparker]

I was around on the board when you guys first started, I found this place just after Bendis' first issue of USM. I then started picking up POWERS (and eventually Jinx and Torso) because I liked Bendis' writing on USM and hanging around this place. So when I read that he would be starting on DD I was psyched to give it a try. I knew after just a few pages of that first issue that I was gonna be a huge fan of the book. And it was the combination of the art with the story that made me feel like, right off the bat, this might turn out to be my favorite comic book ever. Seeing your Kingpin those first few pages was special. The sequence of his "Ceasar" style stabbing early on was very effective. I knew this guy had a great sense of visual storytelling right away. (that awesome explosion double page spread in front of the courthouse from that issue just popped into my mind) That was the thing about Maleev, he's an amazing, and very realistic storyteller.

One of the best thing about reading the book these last few years was getting to see your style evolve and grow during the course of the run Alex. The work you've been doing with Dave Stewart since he came on board has been particularly brilliant. (though the stuff with Hollingsworth was killer too, I loved the stuff you guys did with the Owl issues) You gave this book a look and feel all its own man, thats one of the many aspects of your run that will endure for a long time to come.

Also, I can't say enough about reading the book when you actually live in NYC. Alex always got the backgrounds and neigborhoods right, that was fucking cool.

Don't want to forget all the amazing covers you did every month either, that added to the experience issue after issue because they always intrigued and captured the mood.

and lets not foget that AM is all about drawing the super hot ladies! 8) Ones that always still feel like real woman though, not characitures.



Bottom line, Bendis/Maleev's DD is my favorite comic book run ever, and I'm really gonna miss picking it up every month. thanks for the ride, and add me to the chorus that just can't friggin believe I'll be buying a Spider Woman book either! :)

[Blake Sims]

Alex I want to have your babies.

[TheKraken]

Alex, I first noticed and began to admire your work on the various Crow mini-series you were a part of. Since then, your work has never stopped getting more exciting (to me as a fan) and technically impressive (to me as an artist). Your Daredevil run cemented you as my favorite artist in comics today (edging out the prolific hand of John Romita, Jr and the bizarre hermitage of Travis Charest) and I'm followin' you for the long haul. Congrats on maybe the best run in Daredevil history, and I look forward to the future...

[TheKraken]

and lets not foget that AM is all about drawing the super hot ladies! 8) Ones that always still feel like real woman though, not characitures.



You know, I've never really understood the concept of "hot" comic girls... just don't get all hot'n'bothered about a bunch of lines when I can see real girls all over the internet if I choose... but I gotta say, Alex's Elektra in this arc is fuckin' scandelous. :lol:

[Alex(sadly)Maleev]

You know, I've never really understood the concept of "hot" comic girls... just don't get all hot'n'bothered about a bunch of lines when I can see real girls all over the internet if I choose... but I gotta say, Alex's Elektra in this arc is fuckin' scandelous. :lol:


If I had a model for her, I would have sent you a picture. She's a product of my mind alone.

[joshdahl]

Thank you for a truly great run.

[ERNIE_E]

Thank you for a run that is the only Daredevil run that deserves to be in Hardcover next to Miller's run. It's hard to do something to Daredevil and not think about Miller while you read it and your run has done that. Have a blast in HI. Can't wiat to see what's next.

[Persevering Guy]

though I'll miss the last couple issues (foriegners can't get credit cards in Japan, don't know if I can order online, maybe I can get a debit card, we'll see), I really, really loved what I saw. Very enjoyable.

[mattbrand]

Alex - amazing job on a truly excellent run of comics. I enjoyed the art immensely in every single issue you drew. We'll miss you!

[The Cheap-Arse Film Critic]

I loved looking at Maleev's work before I ever read DD. He never disappoints and though I'm not certain if I will read Spider Woman (not sure about the character) I will look at his work.

The only other stuff of Alex's I'd seen before Daredevil was his stuff on Sam & Twitch, also with Bendis. I really liked that, but it was his Daredevil stuff that made him a superstar in my eyes. No other artist has owned that character so completely since Miller.

[PoWerSurge]

Awesome job, man! If Bendis's writing is the soul of the book, your art was the spark that gave the monster life

[Murdock's Girl]

Thanks for a hell of a ride!

I'm sure this is going down in the history books as one of the great runs.

Now I'm going to go sit in the corner and cry myself to sleep.


Alex-
I cried when I put my pull list in with the last issue......My shop guy thought I was nuts.
I thank you and brian for this run....what really made me a diehard fan of comics was this book. :)

Noble- can i join you crying in the corner? :)
hehehe
Tess/MG

[PeteL]

What a run. That's all that I can say. It kicked my ass.

I'm going to miss it a lot. You guys did a hell of a job. Maleev rules.

[Marcdachamp]

Well, what can I say? Wow seems natural, but even that really can't sum up what the two of you did here.

Make no mistake about it, I was not a Daredevil fan a few years ago. Curiosity due to the upcoming movie and a great 25 cent issue helped change my mind. At that point, I just wasn't a Maleev fan. His style was too dark for my tastes. I'd grown up on artists like Joe MAD and George Perez, and this simply was too different for me. At first. Once I picked up the Underboss trade, I was a Maleev fan for life. It also changed Bendis from "that Ultimate Spiderman guy" to my favorite writer.

And there were just so many highlights. Every issue just gave me more and more reason to love this team. One of my favorite arcs was "Golden Age" which, in my humble opinion, was one of the single greatest artistic moments in mainstream comics. It proved Alex's strength as one of the greatest artists in comics today. And let's not forget Bendis, who has all of us on the edge of our seats with "The Murdock Papers". Never before have I read cliffhangers that made me anticipate the next issue as much as yours do, Brian.

Let's all raise our glasses. Brubaker and Lark have some massive shoes to fill, 'gents. Here's looking forward to Spiderwoman.

P.S. Can I get a Myspace add, Alex?

[Murdock's Girl]

Reading your post Mardachamp made me think-
I starting reading daredevil because of Smith. (Very long story short- my other best friend rob is a huge smith/batman fan and told me smith wrote DD). Anyhoo- I bought guardian devil tpb and stumbled across that week's direct at borders- the first issue of 'out'.

In that arc there is a sequence- a 2 page spread- that maleev does (foggy is talking about the circle of violence in matt's life) and Alex has all these little panels- the death of karen, the death of elektra- and I don't know what the fuck it was, but between what foggy was saying and those pictures....I felt at a total loss. You could definatly feel foggy's anger and pain.
That spread, to this day is still my favorite spread in the whole run. That spread was what made me go and hunt down the entire run in my LCS.

Funny thing- last year at megacon I was able to talk to JQ for a mintue. I asked him- as a daredevil FAN- what the best run was. You want to know what JQ said? He told me that, given a couple of years the alex/brian run would have just as much importance as say- the miller daredevils. but as he said, we are all to close to it now to realize it.
:)
I had to tell him I agreed with him.
Tess/MG

[Ryan Walsh]

That'll do, Alex. That'll do.

[Randomus]

Good job. You've earned your Hawaii. :D

[TonyFleecs]

Congrats man. You'll be missed.

[Thomas Mauer]

Thanks for your long tenure on the book, Alex. Your art in the 'Nuff Said issue made me a Daredevil fan and mainstream comics reader.

[jaydub]

I don't post very much but I wanted to tell you I've bought and loved every issue of Daredevil since Bendis took it over... Thanks for your huge contribution to the book... One of my favorites of all time...

[ckonanz]

Thanks to you and Bendis for an excellent run on Daredevil, one of the best in comics in the last five years. I am sure you are feeling a mix of sadness and hapiness. Sadness because you are leaving a character that has been part of your life for the last 5 years, and hapiness because you know it was a success on every level. Congratulations on that achievement, and best of wishes on your new project. I am sure most of us here on the Bendis Board will support you and Bendis in the Spider-Woman comic.

Cheers!!!

[MrCreepy]

Congrats on my personal favorite creative run on the title.

[Stryfe McK]

Richard Fisk was awesome.

[Billy Batson]

Thanks for the great view of the character

[Yano]

Great job with your DD run, Alex.

I think that every artist in a way wants to be the person who is linked to a character, who defines the character and makes such an impact that they will always be the one that future artists are compared to - "This guy was nothing compared to Maleev's run, now THAT was art..." Thanks for an unforgettable run...

[B3NN3TT]

Now GET OUT OF THE WAY and let Lark through!

Wonderful work, Alex. You've come a long way since PREDATOR... ;) But I got nothing to add to what's been said so far. Keep it up, man!

[Davis Dewsbury]

Thank you Alex. I think you and Brian bested Frank Miller of DD. You will be missed.


I am glad to stay on this title with Mr. Lark and the Bru!


Thank you again, to Alex and Brian

[X arseface X]

Hats off to you, and thank you for a great few years.

[DocMoonmoth]

I was there from the beginning - thank you a lot for great comics!

[Mister Mets]

I can't believe it! I just drew the last line on a Daredevil page. Done. Finito la comedia. My farewell song.
To all who read the book, supported us, loved us, hated us. To all I bow. It has been a great run, my best work, my best job with some of the best professionals some of which turned close buddies later in life. It took me to many places in the world, it made new friends for me, it opened great opportunities and a few awards.

Now I pack my bags and off to Hawaii tomorrow morning to join Bendis and the rest of the crew.
Thank you.

You had a fantastic run.
Can't wait to see your work on future projects.

[Jew Mafia]

Congrats Alex, it was a great run. In the years and decades to come I'm sure it will be looked back upon as one of the best DD runs ever.

[King of Mars]

Thanks for an amazing, classic run. Can't wait to see what you guys do with Spiderwoman.

[Angel]

thank you alex and bendis. i'm so glad that you guys got the call to work on the same character that ushered me into this comic obsession. the very first comic i ever read was daredevil 181. i've suffered through the crappy writing and costume changes. it killed me to see such a great character shuffle off to midiocraty. but after reading your guys's first issue, i thought this run would reinvigorate the title. and it did and it made me proud to say i was a daredevil fan. your run parallels if not surpasses that of miller. when i have kids, the first comics i will give them is daredevil 181, your guys's daredevil run and kabuki. thanks so much and good luck with everything you do in the future.

[MACK!]

That is where I started reading DD as well.
I was like 9 or 10 and that Punisher/Angel Dust story at that time really had an impact on me.
That was my intro to DD.

Thanks for bringing us your vision of Daredevil, guys.

And thanks for staying so long.

[Michael Lark]

Just gotta say, even though I'm thrilled to be taking over the reins, I'm gonna miss you guys. You both inspired the hell out of me. Thanks for 50+ great issues!

This run, from Underboss to (and I'm sure of it, even if I didn't read it yet) the Murdock Papers is a Bible of dark superhero comic book. Thank you for everything you did, thank you for giving back his real sense to the word "new". New ways of story-telling, new ways of performing arts...Thank you for "Out" and "Hardcore", my two favourites, and for all the anthological scenes you manage to put into them.

I can't wait for Spider-Woman to come out.
