Stephanie Phillips and Lee Garbett Begin New ‘Daredevil’ Run in April 2026

Even if you don’t like the return of the blind bag, you have to admit that it makes the most sense for a new Daredevil comic.

Stephanie Phillips and Lee Garbett begin their new run and relaunch the Man Without Fear with a new first issue this winter.

The initial storyline sees Matt Murdock taking on a new role as a law professor as he also contends with a new super villain named Omen who is gunning for DD.

 “I’m taking on one of my favorite characters with one of my favorite artists, and together we’re exploring Daredevil’s noir sensibilities,” Phillips explained. “Lee Garbett brings so much style and emotion to every page, and I couldn’t ask for a better partner to bring this version of Daredevil to life.”

“I couldn’t be more excited to be working with Stephanie Phillips on Daredevil,” Garbett added. “We came into the project together, with a genuine love of the character and a clear vision for the book. Steph is an incredible writer and has absolutely nailed the tone and heart of Daredevil’s world. Every beat feels authentic and DD at its purest, but we’ve got fresh ideas and some big surprises in store!”

Daredevil #1 will be the second Marvel title sold in a blind bag after December’s Ultimate Endgame #1. Similar to Ultimate Endgame #1, Daredevil #1 will come in a special sealed bags that could contain any of the issue’s many covers (on sale on April 1), including rare variant covers exclusive to Blind Bags and hand-drawn, ultra-rare one-of-a-kind sketch covers by surprise contributors. For a complete list of covers, check out the official Marvel Comics News page.
