I remember buying and enjoying this book. Never realized that Art Adams co-drew the awesome cover. As a writer myself, I love Ann’s message in this story. I forgot how contrasting Daredevil and Sabertooth were. Daredevil questioning his role as a hero. Love the Sabertooth’s confusion of why he does what he does and Ann comparing that to how humans act. Awesome read.
I think the Klaus Janson inks mask a lot of the details that you normally see in Arthur Adams work, so it isn't readily apparent that it's him. But it is. Thanks for your thoughts.
Nocenti's Daredevil run is one of those that is a timeless classic and a high-water mark, not only for the character, but for comics more broadly. Of course, having a host of great artists to work with (most notably John Romita Jr. and Al Williamson), will certainly help in that. Thanks for your input, as always, my friend.
i had collected a lot of Daredevil from the 80s. Surprised I missed this issue. I never knew that he ever fought Sabretooth. Great issue and a great job breaking it down!👍
Well, part of why I do these is to give some attention to issues that might have slipped under people's radar. There's lots of good stuff out there, besides just the "all-time classics" everyone already knows. Glad I was able to point you in the direction of one. Thanks for your comment.
I hope we don’t see Sabretooth in any future MCU movies(besides his little cameo in the newest Deadpool film). He’s too terrifying a character to do justice in their family friendly films.
Oh, I don't know. I never found him that terrifying in the comics and i think those would qualify as "family friendly." Even in this one. Sure, he's bloodthirsty and all, but you can still show that, without going overboard with gore. Doing justice to that, in such a type of entertainment, is the mark of real creative skill, IMO. Thanks for your thoughts.
@@SequentialTreasures You're probably right. Hell, the original X-Men movie didn't even give him and Wolverine a proper rivalry; so I don't think the MCU would screw that up at least.

@@SequentialTreasures yea, Klaus Janson’s ink toned down Art’s pencils but Art did sign the cover and I still missed that lol. Keep up the great work
I got that issue! Its one of those books , while organizing my comics I stop to thumb through. Hello James and Heidi!

What a great issue. Ann Nocenti's run on Daredevil is a must read for everyone.
I certainly can't disagree with any of that. Thanks for the comment.
Always loved that cover.
Hard to go wrong with Arthur Adams and Klaus Janson.

Love this issue of course
Nocenti's run is one of the best for the character. So, there's lots of great issues in it and this is certainly one of them.
