Really? I could provide some scans of DD #1 that would show direct contradictions to Frank Miller's origin story, none of this "open ended" BS.  Why don't you go look it up. "

There are minor difference between the stories none of which have to actually do with Daredevil's abilities.Miller just took the part with Matt's training and added Stick so his skill level actually makes sense.The differences in Jack Murdock,and what actually happened to him,and Daredevil Yellow going after the Fixer rather than just plain old Matt,and Matt's age are the only contradictions.The part where Matt gets picked on and his dad makes him hit the books instead of worrying about them,The Fixer being involved with what happened to Jack,Matt's solo training at Fogwell's gym.All crossed over in to Miller's origin story.

" @DocJude: Oh, so you can go track down my Anthropology textbook to see if I'm lying? Maybe one of the journals I had to read through in history class?   Daken has those tats because he wanted them. There is a traditional Japanese process for inserting ink under the skin. For someone so "well-traveled" is kind of surprising that you didn't know that. "

I know the use of ink in that manner isn't uncommon in some areas of Japan.  "

" @DocJude: There is evidence of tatooing for decorative and religious purposes in Japan dating back thousands of years. The technique is known as Irezumi (refers to the insertion of ink under the skin). There's a stigma in Japan today over because of how often tatoos are employed by the Yakuza to mark their men, so it's not surprising you didn't see anything about it. "

who has a better measure of Daredevil's skill, Frank Miller or Stan Lee or any of the multitude of writers that have had the honor to write DD? Which writer who's written the Daken at any given time is the "right" one when it comes to portraying his skill set? Some say he has superhuman speed, some say he doesn't. If one Marvel writer says he doesn't have superhuman speed (or more accurately, writes Daken as SAYING that he doesn't have superhuman speed) and then another Marvel writer clearly shows him displaying speed and reflexes impossible for a normal human, guess what? He has superhuman speed.  If you don't like the mess that is comic continuity, then maybe you should quit reading comics, because those of us who've been reading them for 30+ years have learned to deal with it. Daken's be around for almost 4yrs and it seems that they're still trying to nail down the character. "

Stan Lee left DD's origin open ended and Frank Miller took the initiative to actually tell the full story.He's not a good character to use when you're talking about the differences in writer portraying him.Frank Miller would be a better judge than Stan Lee of what DD's actual abilities are because of what Stan Lee left out of his story not because Frank Miller came in and changed anything.

" @DocJude: You're claiming the writer who CREATED Daken doesn't have an accurate measure on his speed? Hilarious, sir.  Simply hilarious. "

Bucky, he has way more real combat experience.

" GA is tougher and stronger , but aint as trained at all.  Nightwing dodges bullets , he can doodge arrows, GA  is goin DOWN "

Green Arrow's dodged bullets, even fired by Drakon. Dodging bullets isn't that big of a deal, plenty of street levelers do that. "

LMFAO.  Green Arrow escaped from PISTOL FIRE from the opposite rooftop.  The next time Drakon took shots, his FACE was covered by a glue arrow and Ollie even remarked he was getting "lucky" with the dodging.  You humor me, sir! "
