Daredevil #273

In "The Billion Dollar Ashtray," Daredevil and his daughter face a renewed threat as Shotgun, armed with upgraded weapons, is sent back into the fray to reclaim Number Nine—whose mysterious past continues to unfold. With Ann Nocenti scripting and John Romita Jr. bringing the action to life, this 1989 issue deepens the intrigue around Number Nine’s origins, all rendered in bold colors by Max Scheele and sharp inks by Al Williamson, with Joe Rosen’s lettering anchoring the tension. The cover, by Romita Jr. and Williamson, captures the high-stakes intensity of the hunt.
