Description

The idea behind this one was to really show the sadness behind the birth of the Daredevil hero. It seems a very common theme in superheroes that they are born from tragedey. DD was certainly no exception.

A truly worthy tribute to this pivotal moment in DD's early career. Dave nailed it!

Wonderfully textured piece. Highly detailed and pucks an emotional punch

Thanks. This was actually my second try at this theme. I didn't get it the first time and thot that DD was supposed to have kicked the Fixer's ass. That didn't get past the pencil stage before Craig corrected me. I redrew pretty much the whole thing, just re-traced the background in pencil. I think the splatter adds to the grimy look of the subway platform.
