This is the definitive Daredevil story, where Matt Murdock is stripped of everything—his secret identity, his friends, and his very sense of self. In this gritty and powerful tale, visionary creators Frank Miller (The Dark Knight Returns, Sin City) and David Mazzucchelli (Batman: Year One) reforge Daredevil as a hero reborn, driven by pure faith and unshakable resolve, showing his true strength lies within.
Includes bonus material such as a foreword by author Frank Miller and an afterword by actor Charlie Cox.
From the powerhouse pairing of Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli comes the definitive Daredevil tale. Karen Page, Matt Murdock’s former lover, sets into motion a Machiavellian chain of events by trading away his secret identity for a drug fix. Now, Daredevil must find all the strength he can muster as Wilson Fisk, the Kingpin of Crime, wastes no time taking him down as low as a human can get. As he’s nursed back to health by a nun named Sister Maggie, Matt discovers a shocking secret that will change their relationship forever — but can he piece his life back together and survive a battle against the brutal super-soldier named Nuke?
This book inspired Daredevil’s portrayal in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with Daredevil: Born Again premiering in March 2025 on Disney+.

TwoMorrows Publishing presents Marvel Comics in the 1980s, the
third volume in Pierre Comtois’ heralded series covering the pop
culture phenomenon on an issue-by-issue basis! This new book covers
Marvel’s final historical phase, when the movement begun by Stan
Lee, Jack Kirby, and Steve Ditko moved into a darker era that has
yet to run its course. The 1980s saw Stan Lee's retreat to the West
Coast, Jim Shooter's rise and fall as editor-in-chief, the twin
triumphs of Frank Miller and John Byrne, the challenge of
independent publishers, and the weakening hold of the Comics Code
Authority that led to the company's creative downfall — and
ultimately the marginalization of the industry itself. Comics such
as the Chris Claremont/John Byrne X-Men, Frank Miller's Daredevil,
the New Universe, Roger Stern's Avengers and Spider-Man, the new
wave of dark heroes such as Wolverine and the Punisher, and more
are all covered, in the analytic detail — and often irreverent
manner — readers have come to expect from the previous 1960s and
1970s volumes. However, the 1980s represented years of upheaval in
the comics industry — with Marvel at the center of the storm —
so expect a bumpy ride in the 1980s decade that marked the
beginning of the end of Marvel Comics as you knew them!
The American Comic Book Chronicles continues its ambitious series
of FULL-COLOR HARDCOVERS, where TwoMorrows' top authors document
every decade of comic book history from the 1940s to today! Keith
Dallas headlines this volume on the 1980s, covering all the pivotal
moments and behind-the-scenes details of comics during the Reagan
years! You'll get a year-by-year account of the most significant
publications, notable creators, and impactful trends, including:
The rise and fall of Jim Shooter at Marvel Comics! The ascendancy
of Frank Miller as a comic book superstar with works like
Daredevil, Ronin and The Dark Knight! DC Comics' reboot with Crisis
on Infinite Earths and its Renaissance with a British invasion of
talent like Alan Moore, Grant Morrison, and Neil Gaiman! The
emergence of Direct Market-exclusive publishers like Eclipse
Comics, Pacific Comics, First Comics, Comico, Dark Horse Comics and
others! These are just a few of the events chronicled in this
exhaustive, full-color hardcover.Taken together, American Comic
Book Chronicles forms a cohesive, linear overview of the entire
landscape of comics history, sure to be an invaluable resource for
ANY comic book enthusiast!

A fire burns deep within Matt Murdock. He was raised by a single
father, an over-the-hill prizefighter with one last chance to make
it good - a chance that cost him his life. Taunted and tormented by
children while growing up, Matt's life was irrevocably altered
after he was blinded by radioactive materials while saving the life
of an old man. The payoff? An unbreakable will and a keen
intelligence, helping focus the super-senses he was blessed with
during the accident. His story is one of love, pain,
disappointment, and strength. Witness the tour-de-force origin of
the "Man Without Fear" by industry legends Frank Miller and John
Romita Jr. This title collects "Daredevil: The Man Without Fear"
numbered 1-5.
