Daredevil’s past and present will collide in Giant-Size Daredevil this summer, as regular Daredevil scribe Saladin Ahmed and artist Paul Davidson show what happens when the demonic forces making Matt Murdock’s life a living hell in his monthly title decide to take control of the Kingpin.
“I’ve always loved villain POV stories, and Wilson Fisk has the ultimate street level villain POV,” Ahmed said. “We went really big and bloody with this, bringing Kingpin back in a huge way, and I can’t wait for fans to check it out.”
Here’s how Marvel describes the oversized problems Daredevil will face in this oversized issue:
Daredevil’s latest run has seen Matt Murdock devote himself to two different callings. When he’s not suited up as the Man Without Fear, Matt is serving as Hell’s Kitchen’s newest priest! At the center of this new status quo is a terrifying mystery as demonic entities tied to Daredevil’s very soul begin to target his loved ones. With a mysterious connection to the seven deadly sins, these vengeful supernatural forces will now seek to inhabit Daredevil’s ultimate enemy—Kingpin!
Sin will find you out, Daredevil! He’s on the hunt: One of Daredevil’s deadliest and most dangerous foes, empowered by forces unknown even to himself, prepares for the kill. Yes, none other than Kingpin, stalking the streets of Manhattan by night. And no matter the speed with which Daredevil moves… there will be blood.
Marvel continues the celebration of the 50th anniversary of their first Giant-Size volume, a common find on spinner racks back during the 1970s. Giant-Size Daredevil follows the previously announced Giant-Size editions featuring the Fantastic Four, Spider-Gwen, Hulk , Miles Morales and more.
Giant-Size Daredevil arrives in stores June 12.
