I'm not a big Bendis fan, especially where "Daredevil" is concerned. He has good story ideas, but the execution is muddled, and I hate his dialogue with a passion. Bad dialogue ruins a comic for me, just like bad dubbing ruins martial arts movies (which is why I'm selling my American versions and trying to repalce them with subtitled versions.) The only run of Bendis's I actually liked was "The King Of Hell's Kitchen" (despite flecks of bad dialogue here and there.)

As for Maleev, I don't care for his style either. I especially dislike the way he draws faces and fight scenes.

I'd like to see Graham Nolan and Scott Hanna work on DD. They're among my favorite Batman artist teams.
