Industry legend Brian Michael Bendis begins his acclaimed five-year DAREDEVIL run!

When the staff that once belonged to his mentor is stolen, Daredevil is determined to get it back -- even if that means joining an ancient ninja battle between the Seven and the Hand! Then, why is investigative reporter Ben Urich focusing on the catatonic son of two-bit costumed criminal Leap Frog -- and how is Daredevil connected to a child he doesn't even know? When a rich client hires Matt Murdock to sue Daredevil, it's time for everyone's favorite attorney to play to the camera! Plus: Ambitious gangster Sammy Silke has inspired Wilson Fisk's lieutenants to rise up against the Kingpin of Crime! But what is the connection between Silke's coup and the contract on Matt Murdock's life? Brian Bendis and Alex Maleev's gritty reinvention of Daredevil's world begins right here!

About the Author
Award-winning comic-book creator Brian Michael Bendis is one of the most successful writers in the industry today. In addition to an acclaimed run on Daredevil, he has helmed a renaissance for Marvel's popular Avengers franchise and written the event projects House of M, Secret War, Secret Invasion, Siege, Age of Ultron and Civil War II. Bendis wrote every issue of Ultimate Spider-Man from its launch in 2000 before bringing his multiracial Spider-Man, Miles Morales, to the Marvel Universe for continuing adventures. He took on Marvel's mutants in the pages of All-New X-Men and Uncanny X-Men, and launched Guardians of the Galaxy into the stratosphere. Bendis shook up the life of Tony Stark in Invincible Iron Man and related titles, introducing Riri Williams as Ironheart, and then assembled street-level heroes Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Daredevil and his co-creation Jessica Jones in Defenders. His creator-owned projects include Scarlet with Alex Maleev, Brilliant with Mark Bagley, and Takio and the Eisner Award-winning Powers with Michael Avon Oeming.

David Mack submitted his first Kabuki collection while still in college as his senior writing thesis. (He got an A on the project.) Combining innovative storytelling, painting techniques and page design, Mack has won nearly every major comic-industry award, including the prestigious Eisner Award for Best Painter, and garnered praise from such luminaries as Jim Steranko and The Washington Times. Marvel fans first witnessed Mack's stylings when his covers graced the legendary Daredevil storyline "Parts of a Hole," which he also wrote. A few years after teaming with then-new Daredevil writer Brian Michael Bendis on the "Wake Up" arc, he returned to the title for the "Echo: Vision Quest" storyline, which reintroduced readers to the unique character he created in "Parts of a Hole." Mack continues to write and illustrate his creator-owned series, New York Times Best Seller Kabuki, now published by Marvel's Icon imprint, and has been nominated for several Eisner, Kirby and Harvey awards. He is also serving as the visual designer and co-producer on the forthcoming Kabuki feature film. Mack wrote the adaptation of Philip K. Dick's Electric Ant for Marvel, and was nominated for a Writers Guild Award and a Producers Guild Award for his work on Showtime's Dexter.
