☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume of Marvel Masterworks collects Daredevil #12-21, continuing the early adventures of Matt Murdock as the Man Without Fear. Featuring the creative team of Stan Lee and John Romita Sr., these issues introduce iconic villains like the Gladiator and the Organizer, while deepening Daredevil's street-level heroics in Hell's Kitchen. The ComicCraft cover edition presents a classic reprint of these foundational Silver Age stories.
In "Sightless, in a Savage Land!", a costume store owner takes the phrase "it's the clothes that make the man" too literally, donning a suit to become the Gladiator. When Foggy Nelson, armed with a Daredevil costume from Melvin, stages a fake fight to impress Karen, the stunt spirals when the Gladiator takes the bait and attacks for real. With the city cloaked in fog and shadows, Matt Murdock must step in to protect his friend—while the public mistakes Foggy for the real Daredevil. Written by Stan Lee and Denny O'Neil, with art by John Romita and Frank Giacoia, and a cover by Jack Kirby and John Romita, this classic tale blends identity, deception, and the thin line between hero and impostor.
In "Sightless, in a Savage Land!", Matt Murdock seeks escape from his personal struggles, only to find himself stranded in the wilds of the Savage Land after a pirate attack. Taken captive by the Plunderer, he’s rescued by Ka-Zar, who recognizes the Daredevil costume as a remnant of a past clash with the X-Men.
In "If This Be Justice...!", Daredevil crosses paths with Ka-Zar when the Plunderer, armed with the fabled Plunder-Stone and Ka-Zar’s missing medallion, begins a global takeover. With Foggy and Karen in England to support Ka-Zar against his brother’s false accusations, Daredevil must navigate a web of deception and danger to stop the Plunderer’s rise—before justice itself is corrupted.
In "And Men Shall Call Him...Ox!", the brute known as the Ox is lured into a daring escape by his cunning cellmate, Dr. Karl Stragg, who promises to make him smarter in exchange for freedom. But when Stragg swaps bodies with the Ox, the real danger begins—Daredevil must track down the new and improved, yet still dangerous, form of the Ox before he can wreak havoc.
In "None Are So Blind..!", Daredevil finds himself caught in a web of mistaken identity when Spider-Man, convinced Foggy Nelson is the Devil in Disguise, launches a confrontation that spirals into an unlikely alliance. With Foggy half-joking along to impress Karen, the two heroes must set aside their rivalry to stop the Masked Marauder’s latest scheme.
In "There Shall Come a Gladiator!", a costume store owner with a flair for the dramatic takes up the mantle of a gladiator, convinced that the suit makes the man. When Foggy Nelson, donning a Daredevil costume for a staged fight, inadvertently draws the real Gladiator into a deadly game, Matt Murdock must step in to protect his friend—while the city’s fog and shadows hide the truth of who truly defeated the masked menace.
In "Alone--Against the Underworld!", the Masked Marauder and the Gladiator clash over who gets to take down Foggy Nelson—only to find the real Daredevil has arrived to save the day. With chaos unfolding and the stakes higher than ever, one man stands alone against the underworld’s most dangerous threats.
