I love the Armored Daredevil Costume designed by Scott McDaniel back in the nineties and always thought it was such a great design.
When Marvel announced a new Daredevil Miniseries focusing on an era I was excited to revisit.
Before reading "Guardian Devil" my only exposure to Daredevil was the PSA comic “Daredevil vs. Vapora” which was given to elementary school students to make them aware of the dangers of gasoline vapors. It was not until 1998 that I was properly was introduced to Matt Murdock, Foggy Nelson, Karen Page and Matt Murdock’s horned alter ego, Daredevil, The Man Without Fear. Joe Quesada and Jimmy Palmiotti’s art and Kevin Smith’s words were the gateway to the character of Daredevil and their eight-issue arc “Guardian Devil” in my mind is a classic that define the Marvel Renaissance of the late 1990’s early 2000’s. They wrote it as a love letter to what it means to be a hero.
At the time I was probably too young to be watching Kevin Smith’s View Askew movies but alas, “Chasing Amy” was one of my favorite films. Through the comic magazine “Wizard” I learned that Kevin would be writing a relaunch of the Marvel character Daredevil. I remember being awestruck by the cover image to issue one they released to announce the start of the Marvel Knights Imprint. The cover, which featured a stunning shot of Daredevil leaping midair, throwing his billy club, the New York cityscape below is incredible. The issue was sold out by the time I was able to get to my comic shop but thankfully my best friend who was much wiser than me made sure it was added to his pull list and he let me read his copy and I loved it!!! This opened my world up to an amazing character this is when I went and started reading the past runs. This is where I discovered Frank Miller’s work on the character and this led to Brian Bendis and Alex Maleev’s run which is still my all-time favorite run in an onslaught of great runs by creative teams like Ed Brubaker and Michael Lark, Mark Waid and Paolo Rivera, Marcos Martin, and Chris Samnee up to the current run by Chip Zdarksy and Marco Checchetto.

This page is as great action beat of the Man Without Fear doing wha he does best. Penciler Netho Diaz is an exciting and up and coming talent and I was excited to get the inks for this page.
