As many of you remember, Alan Moore broke from mainstream comics in the late 80s after getting fed up with the mainstream comic industry for quite a number of reasons. Having started his own publishing company (Mad Love), Moore decided his next book would be his best ever and started on Big Numbers. The story was going to be the effect of an American shopping center on a small English town. Of course, it would be much more complicated than that (this being Alan Moore after all). And away we went.

Daredevil: Love and War by Frank Miller and Bill Sienkiewicz
Daredevil: Love and War is a short prestige format story by the team that also brought you Elektra Assassin, Frank Miller and Bill Sienkiewicz. This story tied into a story from Miller’s first Daredevil run. where Daredevil forces the Kingpin to abandon a mayoral candidate when he finds Kingpin’s missing (and amnesiac) wife. This story is Miller and Sienkiewicz taking a closer look at Kingpin.
Elektra: Assassin by Frank Miller and Bil Sienkiewicz
Elektra: Assassin by Frank Miller and Bil Sienkiewicz is an almost forgotten masterpiece. It is a manic, adrenaline rush of a comic book that starts off fast and just keeps speeding up. Miller’s writing is perfectly complemented by Sienkiewicz’s artistry (I can’t really say drawings or paintings because it is so much more than that). And the story of Elektra, Garrett (a SHIELD agent) and Ken Wind (a charismatic Presidential candidate) is gripping and exciting.
