This month we get to the first of many comics from this period we’ll see with a 9/11 memorial box on the cover. For a company and really an industry almost exclusively…

UMTU 07
Cool cover. Let’s learn about Ultimate Daredevil. We’re really reducing Ultimate DD to a pre-1990s-style blurb for a backstory? This issue begins with a cop starting a fight in a bar because…
DD V2 8
