Among the commentaries on the Book of Daniel, only a few deserve the label excellent. For the serious study of the Book of Daniel they are, of course, mandatory.
Some of these commentaries are (in alphabetic order):
Collins, John. J.: Daniel. A Commentary on the Book of Daniel. (Hermeneia). Minneapolis: Fortress Press, 1993.
Goldingay, John E.: Daniel. (Word Biblical Commentary, 30). Waco, Texas: Word Books, 1989.
Koch, Klaus: Daniel. (Biblischer Kommentar. Altes Testament, 22). Neukirchen-Vluyn: Neukirchener Verlag des Erziehungsvereins, 1986-2005.
Lattey, Cuthbert: The Book of Daniel. (The Westminster Version of the Sacred Scripture; The Old Testament. Dublin: Richview Press, 1948.
Linder, Josef: Commentarius in librum Daniel. (Cursus Scripturae Sacrae II; Commentarii in Vetus Testamentum 23). Paris: Lethielleux, 1939.
Lucas, Ernest C.: Daniel. (Apollos Old Testament Commentary, 20). Leicester: Apollos, 2002.
Rinaldi, Giovanni: Daniele. (La Sacra Bibbia. Anticho Testamento). Torino: Marietti, 1962.
Stuart, Moses: A Commentary on the Book of Daniel. Boston: Crocker & Brewston, 1850.
A very good introduction to the (academic) study of the Book of Daniel is found in Klaus Koch's Das Buch Daniel. (Erträge der Forschung, 144). Darmstadt: Wissenschaftliche Buchgesellschaft, 1980.

Could you possibly come up with a list of scholarly commentaries on Revelation? I would appreciate it.
If you want to e-mail me, my address is: enarchay@yahoo.com
Dear zach,
I am not an expert on the Book of Revelation per se but the following commentaries are (in my opinion) excellent:
Aune, D.E.: Revelation. (WBC 52). 3. vols. Nashville: Thomas Nelson, 1997-1998.
Beale, G.K.: The Book of Revelation. A Commentary on the Greek Text. (NIGTC) Grand Rapids, Michigan: Eerdmans, 1999.

Charles, R.H.: A Critical and Exegetical Commantary on the Revelation of St. John. (2 vols.) Edinburgh: T.&T. Clark, 1920.
D’Aragon, J.-L.: "The Apocalypse". In: Brown, R.E. et al. (eds.): The Jerome Biblical Commentary (vol. II). Englewood Cliffs: Prentice-Hall, 1968, pp. 467-493.
Michaels, J.R.: Revelation (The IVP New Testament commentary series, 20). Downers Grove, Illinois: InterVarsity Press, 1997.
Prigent, P.: L'Apocalypse de Saint Jean. (Commentaire du Nouveau Testament 14). 3. ed. Genève: Labor et Fides, 2000.
Stuart, M.: A Commentary on the Apocalypse. 2 vols. Andover: Allen, Morrill and Wardwell, 1845.

Hope this helps!
