Following in the footsteps of legendary creative teams from the title’s esteemed history, Phillips and Garbett set out to redefine Daredevil for a new age! A fresh start that’s perfect for newcomers and longtime fans alike, the new run sees Matt Murdock confront unprecedented challenges—both in his personal life as Matt Murdock and on the dangerous streets of Hell’s Kitchen as Daredevil. Matt will go back to school, taking on a new role as a law professor just as a new supervillain named Omen emerges with a mysterious vendetta against his super hero alter ego.
YOU CAN BURY THE BODIES, BUT NEVER THE GHOSTS!
Hell’s Kitchen is full of secrets – but no secret stays buried for long! As a fearsome new super villain named OMEN has targeted MATT MURDOCK, it will be his alter-ego DAREDEVIL who takes the hits! BUT BEWARE! This mysterious new player isn’t all that they appear – a secret Daredevil will have to learn quickly as he scrambles to settle into a life and status-quo we’ve NEVER SEEN HIM IN BEFORE!
“I’m taking on one of my favorite characters with one of my favorite artists, and together we’re exploring Daredevil’s noir sensibilities,” Phillips explained. “Lee Garbett brings so much style and emotion to every page, and I couldn’t ask for a better partner to bring this version of Daredevil to life.”
“I couldn’t be more excited to be working with Stephanie Phillips on Daredevil,” Garbett added. “We came into the project together, with a genuine love of the character and a clear vision for the book. Steph is an incredible writer and has absolutely nailed the tone and heart of Daredevil’s world. Every beat feels authentic and DD at its purest – but we’ve got fresh ideas and some big surprises in store!”
Check out Garbett’s cover along with variant covers by Rose Besch, Daniel Warren Johnson, and Joe Quesada. Plus, check out the DAREDEVIL #1’s all-new TRUE BELIEVERS BLIND BAG design.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: This sounds like a good one and while I’ve not been a regular reader of any of the most recent “Daredevil” series that have hit the racks, I’ve been known to purchase the debut issue since that is pretty much where my collecting of individual comic books stands nowadays. Truth be told, I was a hardcore readers of “Daredevil” back in the day when Frank Miller was working on the series and those were surely some moments. The character was always interesting and now that he has his own television series with a number of seasons his popularity has only climbed. I’ll wrap up now since I’ve a lot of other things to get online but before I go let me ask you to chime in down below to let me know what you think about this upcoming ongoing adventure for the man without fear. See you next time.
