Daredevil relaunches in March 2014 with All-New Marvel NOW!
Reading time: 2 minutes
Readers were shocked to hear that the end of Daredevil under the steady hand of Mark Waid and Chris Samnee was soon going to be coming to an end, or so we thought. The pair sent out a tweet after the final issue was solicited that the book was going to relaunch with a new number one. The two creators are still going to be on the book when it becomes one of the All-New Marvel Now titles. The story broke on Nerdist, which led the comics press to some new information on the adventures of Daredevil. The comic is going to launch in March with the coveted brand new number one. It should be stated that next year see’s the 50th anniversary of the Hornhead.
Here is the official solicitation text on the new series,
Join Marvel’s fearless hero as he begins his most awe-inspiring adventure yet in the sunny city of San Francisco! Gifted with an imperceptible radar sense and a passion for justice, blind lawyer Matt Murdock—a.k.a. DAREDEVIL—protects the Golden City’s streets from all manner of evil. But big changes are in store for Matt Murdock as old haunts and familiar faces rise to give the devil his due. Hold on tight, because here comes Daredevil…the Man Without Fear!
Feast your eyes on the new cover from Samnee, and a quote from Waid on the direction of the title.
We were actually given the opportunity by Marvel to relaunch with a #1 last year as part of the Marvel NOW! initiative, which absolutely would have boosted sales–but together, the team agreed that since we were in the middle of a storyline, it would be a gimmick, not an organic shift. When the opportunity arose to relaunch again this year, it made a lot more sense given the way we’re about to change literally every aspect of Matt Murdock’s life. Every aspect.
Daredevil #1 hits store shelves in March, but issue #34 ships in December. Be there for comics greatness!
