Item Description

DAREDEVIL was created by Stan Lee and Bill Everett, and first appeared in DAREDEVIL #1 (1964). The son of boxer 'Battlin' Jack' Murdock, Matt Murdock grew up in the relative poverty of Hell's Kitchen with much reverence for his father, who constantly pressed him to study instead of playing with his friends. In turn, they taunted him with the facetious nickname DAREDEVIL since he always went back to studying and secretly training in his father's gym instead of doing things with them.

Matt was blinded by toxic chemicals, but learned to hone his physical skills and other senses to the point where he was a fearsome force for good in his neighborhood of Hell's Kitchen, even after opening a law firm there.

Here in issue #13, you get "The Secret of KA-ZAR's Origin!", a continuation of last issue's story where DAREDEVIL and KA-ZAR first met (this 'new' KA-ZAR first appeared in Marvel's X-MEN #10). These two battle the PLUNDERER as the pirate regales them with both his origin . . and the origin of his better-looking brother, KA-ZAR. The PLUNDERER is after half of a necklace that his father gave the two brothers that will open a vault to a substance that destroys all weaponry. Everybody gets greedy and even the pirates and the butler vie for both halves of the medallion.

Story scripted by Stan Lee. Jack Kirby laid out most of this issue, but the finishes are only Romita's second inking job at Marvel, and beautiful!

This is a well-preserved copy of DAREDEVIL #10 with a strong binding and minimal toning of its 56-year old pages! The front cover has a yiny split the right edge, and a datestamp at the top. There is a bit of handwriting on the title page, and the final page is detached but present. It still has good eye-appeal and good color and that leads us to grading this a 5.5 FN-. The Overstreet Guide feels $25 is appropriate -- we feel $20 plus our L•O•W shipping is even MORE appropriate!

••• And remember - there is no further postage charge if you buy additional items, so load up on some of our other Silver Age Marvels, if that's your thing!
