I'm not interested in reading a comic full of biblical quotes and Christian moralising. I'm guessing Daredevil shucks off his priestly ordination at some point, but I can't force myself to wade through the religiosity to get there.

Other opinions are available.

Luke-XVX Matt Murdock is catholic so… but is it too heavy handed? 1w
Bookwomble @Luke-XVX I know. I was reading Daredevil comics in the '60s, so I've got history 😊 I picked this up because of the cool John Romita Jr cover & because it's been a while since I read a Daredevil comic. I'm fine with Matt's faith being an important part of his character, but for me, finding he's now an ordained priest & every page seeming to have a biblical reference or an appeal to God *was* heavy-handed. For others it might be a narrative asset. 1w
The_Book_Ninja Is this new? Marvel is really losing its way recently. 5d
Bookwomble @The_Book_Ninja Recent - it collects a run of comics published in 2024. To be fair, I think I was in a grumpy mood when I tried to read it 😏 Still, I'm disinclined to go back to it. 5d
