Daredevil collected editions


The Marvel Comics character Daredevil first appeared in 1964 in Daredevil #1, written by Stan Lee and drawn by Bill Everett.
The character's various appearances have been collated into hundreds of trade paperback, hardcover and omnibus collections.

Collected editions by era

Marvel's first attempt at chronologically collecting the core title was in 1991, with the Marvel Masterworks premium hardcover line. The series reprinted 10-12 comics per book.
The next try was the Essential Marvel line, which reproduced comics in black and white. These books were released from 1996 to 2013, before being replaced by the full-color Epic Collections.
Other than those, many other issues have been republished in collected form.

Volume 1 (1964-1998)

The first volume of Daredevil is defined by the 30 issues worked on by Frank Miller. "It's not an exaggeration to say that Miller created a whole new mythos for Daredevil," writes Comic Book Resources. "Miller's run resulted in an unofficial edict for Daredevil writers that "Matt Murdock must suffer.""
After Miller, Ann Nocenti became the first woman to write the character, inventing the villain, Typhoid Mary, and redefining the role of Murdock's love interest, Karen Page. Described as "Daredevil’s Most Underrated Writer", Nocenti "reimagined Karen Page as a three-dimensional character who was just as heroic, if not more, than Daredevil himself". This was in contrast to Miller's depiction that made "Karen undesirable and a damsel in distress, incapable of helping herself or anyone else around her."
As well as the below, the full run of Volume One is being reproduced through Marvel's Epic Collection.

Volume 2 (1998-2009, Marvel Knights Era)

In 1998, Daredevil was cancelled and relaunched, with a new #1 - plus filmmaker Kevin Smith as writer and Joe Quesada as artist. This relaunch "set the tone for the entire Marvel Knights line, directly inspired subsequent depictions of the character in film and television and set the template for how to relaunch a Marvel character."
The rest of the volume was dominated by Brian Michael Bendis' 55 issues, then 33 from Ed Brubaker. Bendis said: "I plan for the biggest, most elaborate feast I can do and dive in and hope for the best. Also it's Daredevil. I've been thinking about it like since I could read and Daredevil's one of those books that a lot of my heroes didn't just work on, but they did their masterpiece on."
As well as the below, the full run of Volume Two is being reproduced through Marvel's Modern Era Epic Collection.

Volumes 3 & 4 (2011-2014, Mark Waid Era)

Mark Waid became the writer of Daredevil in 2011. The third and fourth volumes largely tell a continuing story, despite the #1.
On the transition, Waid said: "We were willing to take chances as storytellers and that would back us. We were making such a huge paradigm shift for the character and his world and his entire method of operation. We'd actually been given the chance to renumber last year, around the time of issue 22-23, but we said "no" then because it truly would have been an artificial break. This time, it makes sense.

Volume 5 (2015-2018, Charles Soule Era)

After Mark Waid's run on the title, Charles Soule took Daredevil past issue #600. His arc saw both Daredevil and his arch-nemesis, Kingpin, become Mayor of New York. On this, Soule said: "I love the 'city under siege' sub-genre, where people trapped in some untenable situation have to find a way to survive and escape. It’s a little tricky to pull something like that off in Marvel’s New York City, but I like how it came together here."

Volume 6 & 7 (2019-2023, Chip Zdarsky Era)

Canadian writer Chip Zdarsky replaced Soule in 2019. On his approach to the book, he said: "Things can't be business as usual no matter how badly Matt wants them to be. This series is going to be about big questions and finding answers in strange places. is trying to prove himself. That he can do the job."

Volume 8 (2023-2025, Saladin Ahmed Era)

American poet, Saladin Ahmed, had been working on Marvel's Miles Morales series when he swapped to work on Daredevil, from September 2023. "I felt like I had a new, unique take on Matt and on Hell's Kitchen," he said. "That's at the center of this… him and his world." Saladin's Daredevil ran for two years, ending in September 2025.
