Born Again - Daredevil 233.6

Let me be the first to say that if this was indeed the onlyl piece of art you owned, you would STILL be the envy of many on this site.  And I'm not upset that you didn't buy anything else for eight years, I'm more upset with the fact that this sat in a closet for eight years.  LOL

Haha, thanks. It was truly in a black hole.

This page is so beautiful. I was upset when you said you threw it into your closet but you now reveal the amazing fact that your closet is the gateway to a black hole!! Do you have control of time and space, perchance? Does it not deserve better than being consigned into a black hole. Your tracking device must be awesome to find it but it did take you years. Thanks for sharing it again.

He's Daredevil, the man without fear.  

I could look at this page for an age.

Me too when it isn't in the closet. Rhymin' Simon :-)

Love you got something like this straight up as your very first piece and glad to see it back here (I love visiting other people's collections to share the obsession too). 

You are the one who convinced me to do it! Enabler...

Outstanding!!!

Still pissed I passed on buying a page from this issue in the early 90's............

The genesis of the OA beast! 

Incredible Born Again page, congrats my friend!  Explosive action-packed sequence masterfully done by Mazz and Miller!

Born Again isn't just one of the greatest runs of the 80's - it's one of the greatest of all time!  Congrats on this killer page!  And keep it out of the closet! ;)

What a first page, Yo, congrats!  Nice top splash followed by some great action packed panels.  "Obsession"...I think many of us out here can relate :)  Can't beat great art paired with high nostalgia factor!

Great page - the last panel dialogue is pretty cool too!

That top panel is amazing.... you can just feel all the chaos and mayhem of Nuke's rampage

This page as a first comic art purchase is utterly brilliant. It's truly a fantastic piece of art.

Thanks for sharing!!!!

Amazing art! Wish I'd bitten the bullet and ponied up for one of these pages back then. Alas.

What a way to dessert start collecting!!!

So glad you put this one back up. One of my Favorite pages from born again - that top panel feels like he is falling in slow motion... Klick goes the camera. Such great storytelling.

Only problem with starting your collection with this piece is trying to top it! So hard to find Born Again pages these days without breaking the bank. Thanks for sharing!

What an amazing way to get into the hobby! Thanks for sharing this!

There are some that would say that this page comes from one of the very finest Daredevil stories ever written (and might even extend the greatness claim further outwards).

I, myself, would not disagree with them. :)

Gorgeous, incredible page, Yo!  Beautiful!  Thank you for (re)sharing!

Spectacular page!

Awesome!

Incredible! Love how this page opens with the thug falling and follows through with him smashing into the car, firing his weapon and the ensuing explosion! Wonderful storytelling!

What a first page to buy! Thanks for resharing. :)

Such a fantastic page to say the least. Thanks for sharing again!

That was a fine choice back in 2009. Many envy you for that (me too, of course) and would love to get into a time machine.

Really nice Born Again page. Love that last panel! Embodies DD!

I could stare at this all day. So glad you get to! Huge congrats!

I'd buy that for a dollar!

That's some Mazzucchelli Gold ~ Congrats!

Time for another comment, but, honestly, I don't think anything can beat the first three words you'll read when you look at the page: "Crazy - It's crazy --"...  Each time I swing past to visit this, there's something new that captivates me.  This time it's panel 3, with Nuke smoldering on the roof of the police car, with the white paint and brutal, thick black-ringed explosion of the rocket upwards, cutting through the hand-lettered SFX and thick forest of zipatone... and then the reversed-out image of DD in the last panel as perfect, eye-pleasing compositional counterpoint.  Chef's kiss yummy, Yo.  Beautiful.
