Certainly one of the most influential periods in Daredevil's history were the issues written and drawn by Miller, and - like the NetFlix television series - the new version of that hero's adventures also leans heavily on the style and themes of Miller's run.
As long as it's done well, I have no problem with that.
And so far, writer Charles Soule and artist Ron Garney have been nailing it.
They're telling a "street level" story about Daredevil - and Matt Murdock's - efforts to bring down a vicious gang in Chinatown.
Murdock is now working for the District Attorney, trying to bring down the bad guys within the legal system - while DD takes a more direct approach.
It's raw, powerful and high-energy, with lots of surprises along the way.
I also like DD's new "assistant" - Blindspot - a superhero in training.
The story's just getting started, so it remains to be seen if this story will reach the heights of Miller's run - but it's off to a good start.
