About the series
Before Marvel’s blind hero, Lev Gleason’s Daredevil was a masked, acrobatic crime-fighter starring in one of the most influential—and notoriously violent—crime comics of the 1940s and 50s. Running for 134 issues, the series was spearheaded by writer-artist Charles Biro, alongside Bob Wood and Carl Hubbell, and introduced a gritty, tabloid-inspired style that defined the publisher’s house line. Its cast included the teen sidekick Crimebuster, the jungle lord Bart Hill, and the grotesque arch-villain The Claw, while the Sniffer brought a detective edge. This original Daredevil matters for pioneering the raw, moralistic crime genre that would soon be shaken by the Comics Code.
