Daredevil #218

In "All My Laurels You Have Riven Away...", Daredevil dons the Jester's mask to divert attention and give the imprisoned villain a rare chance to perform in public—blending justice with a surprising act of theatrical mercy. Written by Denny O'Neil and illustrated by Sal Buscema, with inks by Garvey and Akin, colors by Scheele, and letters by Rosen, the issue unfolds with a sharp, character-driven twist. Keith Pollard's cover captures the dramatic duality of the masquerade, a 65-cent comic from 1985 that stands out for its bold narrative gamble.
