Daredevil is a complicated hero – DD historically sits at the bottom of the top tier heroes (save for a dynamic once-every-decade redefining run), mixing dark magic ninjas with Irish-Catholic guilt like few comics can, and – in great part due to a shared pool of creators – is regularly seen as a crimson-imitation of Batman (and sometimes, they even team up). But then, in 2019, Chip Zdarsky dared to bring Daredevil due on 55 years of potential, promises, and conflicting mythologies: Mike Murdock lives, Elektra dons the cowl, The Daredevils vs The Fisks for the fate of NYC, new trajectory for Typhoid Mary, and the “resolution” to The Hand saga. After a 70 issue Daredevil Era-Event-Experience, the finale left Matt, Elektra, & Hell’s Kitchen itself in a dangerously familiar yet mysterious direction. Join The Action Pack PLUS The Billy Club crew as they look at Daredevil (vol 8) #1 PLUS a look at the 25h anniversary of Guardian Devil, the landmark Kevin Smith story proving Daredevil still had more life after Frank Miller & Ann Nocenti’s then-nearly decade old runs & a history of Daredevil's biggest eras, number ones, and more!
