Strange #123
In "L'envol de la Torpille," Daredevil faces off against the acrobatic villain known as the Torpedo, only to find his foe suddenly crushed by a collapsing wall. With the dying man’s final request, former pro quarterback and insurance salesman Brock Jones dons the costume, stepping into a role he never expected. As Daredevil battles the new Torpedo, he remains unaware of the switch—unable to see the color of his opponent’s hair, he can’t tell the difference. Written by Marv Wolfman and illustrated by Klaus Janson and Bob Brown, with colors by Michele Wolfman, this 1980 issue features a striking cover by Jean Frisano.

Daredevil takes on the high-flying Torpedo. When the villain is crushed by a falling wall, however, pro quarterback turned insurance salesman Brock Jones decides to fulfill a dying man's last request and takes his costume to do so. Ironically, Daredevil can't tell that his opponent has switched identities as he cannot see the color of his hair.
