If my store had this I'm gonna try picking up issue 4 (I'm going there on the 2nd of January) and maybe the others if they're cheap. This series looks great, what's happened so far? I don't know much about the DD mythology but I assume this is not in continuity.

So far, the #1 one was great, but in #2 and #3 nothing much really happened. I'd recommend waiting for the trade, since it isn't in continuity.

I'd rather get it monthly thanks and I should be able to score the back issues cheap.

If your not familiar with DD it's not worth reading!

It's modeled on Citizen Kane. You may want to watch that film if you haven't seen it, then take to reading the book (if you want). I think Bendis isn't following the Kane model very well--that story developed the character's history through a reporter interviewing various people. End of Days has Urich interviewing a lot of people and...not getting any information. Seriously, issues #2 and #3 can be summed up as "Do you know anything?" "No, but I have at least one kid with red hair. Don't ask who the father is."
"Well, last night's episode was a very special episode. They revealed that the Incredible Hulk has an evil twin. And he's not green. He's red."

I've been enjoying it. It looks like things may ramp up next issue, which is exciting.

It's been great so far. It's a bit of a slow burner so may read better in trade format (but I like it as it is!). I think it may be a bit difficult to follow at times if you don't have much knowledge of DD though, although google may be able to solve those problems!
Avengers Arena is one of the best books in the shops right now, it's seriously amazing.
Show Teddy some love!

I started reading this series knowing almost nothing about DD and I'm still enjoying it.

I am digging it. If you enjoyed Bendis' DD run, then there is a good chance you will like this. And vice versa. If you pick this up and like it then I strongly recommend going back and collecting Bendis' epic run on Daredevil
