The Man Without Fear is heading in a bold new direction this April, and Marvel is celebrating the launch with a massive mystery. Stephanie Phillips and Lee Garbett are taking the reins of Hell’s Kitchen in Daredevil #1, and collectors have a unique way to join the ride: the True Believer Blind Bags.
Arriving on April 1, this issue marks the second time Marvel has utilized the Blind Bag format (following Ultimate Endgame #1). Each sealed bag contains one random copy of Daredevil #1, giving fans the chance to pull everything from standard covers to ultra-rare, hand-drawn sketch covers by industry legends.

New Status Quo: Professor Murdock & The Omen
This isn’t just a gimmick for collectors—the story inside promises a massive shift for Matt Murdock. Phillips and Garbett are introducing a fresh status quo where Matt Murdock takes on a role as a law professor.
However, the “ghosts” of Hell’s Kitchen won’t stay buried. A terrifying new antagonist named Omen has emerged, targeting Matt with a mysterious vendetta. As Matt tries to balance his academic life with the violence of the streets, he’ll have to uncover who Omen is before the hits become fatal.
‘Daredevil’ #1, the start of a new run of the Man Without Fear by Stephanie Phillips and Lee Garbett, arrives in Marvel’s new True Believer Blind Bags this April.
