 The Comics Journal: Reviews   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Bendis' comics must be among the most voluble in the medium, even with their pronounced caesuras.
Bendis wants his stories to look like this (with his own art, I thought the drift toward such a look was more out of necessity, dictated by what he did or didn't have photographs and photocopies of).
Bendis captures aspects of the teen psyche well, particularly the wild fluctuations of youthful self-valuation as occasioned by circumstances that ceaselessly flutter between the utterly fantastic and the remorselessly mundane.

 Brian Michael Bendis: Comics' Funk Soul Master
Bendis found some time to sit down with SBC and talk about 25 cent issues of Daredevil, and how he could use R. Kelly's recent legal trouble to his advantage.
BMB: Well, that's the thing, it may be that Matt is the asshole of his own story, he may have screwed up in ways no other superhero ever has.
BMB: No, in fact I think part of our recent sales surge is the letter column, there's no where else to get one.

 FANBOY PLANET.com .: mc-brianmichaelbendis1 :.
Just to remind you fans, the reason everybody jumped on the Bendis bandwagon in the first place was because of his work on Daredevil, a character celebrating its fortieth anniversary this week with the release of Daredevil #65.
Bendis: The guest artists are just coming in only for issue 65, which is a prelude to that story.
Bendis: The Daredevil anniversary is different in that in 50 we used artists that were classic Daredevil artists, each and every one.

 Welcome to Silver Bullet Comics! // THE source, nuff said! // Comics, Subscriptions, News, Previews, Reviews, Events, ...
Bendis hands a copy of the Jinx TP back to a man at the front of the line, shakes his hand with passionate gratitude.
In last year’s ‘Disassembled’ event, Avengers mainstays Vision and Hawkeye were killed, and Bendis held the smoking gun; Wanda, the Scarlett Witch, broke under the stress of her powers, and Bendis is the one that pushed her over the edge.
Bendis never takes his position for granted; being a fan himself, he knows how exciting the world of comics can be those who hold a passion for them, which is probably why he can instantly create a comfortable rapport with those in his line.

Bendis first got significant attention with his noir thriller AKA Goldfish from Caliber in 1995, at the same time that the publisher was making a name for itself with such projects as David Mack's Kabuki and Joe Pruett's anthology Negative Burn.
Bendis' initial Daredevil arc is only now seeing print, but that job and his solo work led Quesada and Marvel president Bill Jemas, who tapped Que-sada last year to revitalize Marvel as its editor-in-chief, to approach Bendis as writer of the new Ultimate line.
BMB: I had one really big story in my head about Elektra, which involves SHIELD and other stuff that I've been playing with - some stuff that I want to say about the character, and at the same time bow to how important that character was to my development as a fan.

 Amazon.com: Goldfish: Books: Brian Michael Bendis   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Goldfish is the story of an enigmatic grifter with a heart of gold, who returns to his old haunts to find his old flame, Lauren, practically running the city's underbelly, and his oldest friend and ex-partner in crime, Izzy, now a police detective.
Since Bendis both drew and wrote this comic, and it is all fl and white noir, it draws an obvious comparison to Frank Miller's Sin City series.
Bendis is definately a great writer, I will not dispute that, but, Goldfish did not continuously capture me throughout the entire tale.

The second time was week or so after Bendis had gone from being a smart writer/artist known mainly for his sharply characterised crime stories to suddenly being a Big Player, the Man Who Will Revitalise/Destroy Marvel and Cur(s)e Spiderman depending which brand of net-chatter you prefer.
In my opinion, Bendis is one of the very few writers worthy of the name in an industry awash with mediocrity, empty hype, and an obsession with its own past.
Bendis is fascinated by what people do with their lives when they've let themselves forget that they were intending to be doing something else.

 Amazon.fr : Ultimate Spider-Man: Ultimate Six: Livres en anglais: Brian Michael Bendis,Mark Bagley,Trevor Hairsine   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Bendis gives the villains real personality, but misses an opportunity to point out the tale's most obvious lesson: that any government facility that thinks five desperate supervillains won't try to escape from a group therapy session isn't thinking very clearly.
After all, Bendis, Hairsine and Miki are correct that Spider-Man is not going to be able to handle these five "mutant" villains (yes, one of them gets a power upgrade), especially if they fight as a team, which, this time they do.
One of the key elements of the Ultimate universe is the government's concern with illegally obtained super powers and the idea that the next big war will be fought against mutants (Peter is going to be drafted into the Ultimates as soon as he turns 18).
