history of comics - DAREDEVIL

Another Stan Lee co created gem that launched in 1964 and follows Matt Murdoch's adventures on the streets of Hell's Kitchen and in the courtroom.

Quite frankly, Daredevil is a Frog favourite and for very good reason. You see, we like them quite dark and gritty at Frog HQ and from Bendis to Brubaker Daredevil has proven as consistent and an enjoyable a read as any. We will recommend starting with volume 2 with the Marvel Knights re-branding. Pay special mind to the three Brian Michael Bendis Runs
