> I notice Bendis says he treats all characters equally, pointing to Daredevil. Did his run on Daredevil end with him being a murdering, insane man who had retreated to a simple life in Eastern Europe to hide from reality? One quick and rough definition that he should consider: Heroes persevere or go down fighting... Victims are broken.

I know yours was a rhetorical question, but Bendis concluded his run on the title by having DD locked in prison to await trial for obstruction of justice alongside his enemies (Kingpin, Gladiator, etc). Superhero and supervillains, all together, and as the director of the FBI (who alternates between being a somewhat sympathetic figure and a total bastard throughout Bendis's tenure) says, if they all kill one another while locked up, that would be "fantastic."
I always found that to be a nice snapshot of Bendis's view of superheroes in general.
EDIT: But no, he never has Daredevil act like a victim, despite the intense amount of dumping on he gets throughout the book. He definitely never has him beg his opponents to "Stop" while getting the crap beaten out of him.
