Marvel Masterworks: Daredevil #[2]
☆ Be the first to reviewThis 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.

Thinking his fight with Foggy will draw out the real Daredevil, Gladiator goes after him for real and Matt has to take a hand in rescuing his friend. In the night and the fog, everyone assumes it is Foggy as Daredevil that beat the Gladiator back.
