American Update: Mighty Marvel Firsts: Daredevil #1, first appearance and origin!
*Marvel: This week’s entry in our Mighty Marvel Firsts event is Daredevil #1. After the successes of the Fantastic Four and Spider-Man, Stan Lee enlisted his old colleague, Bill Everett, to co-create this acrobatic avenger of the streets. In a yellow and red costume intended to evoke the jester-style livery of the 1940s Daredevil, Matt Murdock lost his sight but gained phenomenal sensory powers, using them and his athletic skills to avenge the murder of his father…and the rest was history. Following his successful Netflix series, Daredevil has finally washed away the stain of the Affleck movie, and Marvel’s Sightless Swashbuckler has never been more popular! This copy of his premier issue is GD/VG, with minor foxing at the spine & top edge, minor corner and edge wear, and one diagonal cover crease at top right corner, but firm staples and excellent interior pages. A highly attractive mid-grade copy of an increasingly popular debut, pence copy on sale at £600. Stay tuned for another Mighty Marvel First next week! SORRY, THIS HAS NOW SOLD
