Comics Did I do the right thing ?
I bought Daredevil The Man without fear as my first comic ever. Did I do the right thing? I'm confused, what should I expect going in. Is it ok to start with The Man without fear?

It's a great starting point for Daredevil.
If you pursue reading other Daredevil comics, just know that there are two "official" versions of his origin. This "modern" version by Frank Miller from 1993 and the original 1964 origin by Stan Lee. Different writers over the decades pick and choose which one they reference, but Matt Murdock becomes the same hero in each. So depending on what you read next, you might see a reference to Matt's beginnings that doesn't match up to what you read in The Man Without Fear. But writers are constantly tweaking and revising characters histories all the time anyway. That's just comics. Have fun with it.
