"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

So what of the considerable amount of written and drawn Daredevil should I be seeking out

You're lucky in that Daredevil has probably had more great story arcs by more great writer/artist teams than any other character in the MCU.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Oh no! I love Bergen Street Comics! Made extra special by the memory of hanging there with Scola!

So what of the considerable amount of written and drawn Daredevil should I be seeking out (or are there any storylines/writers I need to avoid) between now and whenever S2 happens to get fully caught up on the history and texture of his life and Hell's Kitchen and where it all falls in the bigger Marvel 'verse?

The show takes most of its cues from the Miller run and the Bendis/Maleev run. The Brubaker/Lark run is pretty good too and includes a volume co-written with your pal Greg Rucka.

You will want to read the Miller run before S2 because Elektra.

Anyone else reading Gaiman's Sandman: Overture?

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Yes, and ... meh. I feel like it was mostly unnecessary, and that's not how I'm supposed to feel about Sandman.

I liked it, but I'm left wondering how the hell Desire was able to pull a ship out of the Dreaming and keep it from showing up in Destiny's book.

Has anyone else read Paper Girls yet because you guys need to read Paper Girls.

Especially Teppy.

Because it takes place in 1980s Cleveland.

And it's about four 12-year-old paper girls.

And it has one of the best Issue 1 final page reveals I've ever seen.

I am so here for this.

I love that Image never spoiled what the book is actually about just so readers could find out for themselves. SO MUCH FUN I AM GIDDY.
