Only a few years prior to this, JR illustrated Daredevil: The Man Without Fear, a 5-issue series where Frank Miller explored DD’s earliest origins. It’s where the black suit he wore on…

Lost Years 1
Lost Years! Probably shoulda stayed lost! But this does continue John Romita, Jr.’s return to the fold, so that’s cool. And it’s the 90s, so it’s a shiny foil cover! Comics never…
