New York, NY— January 9, 2026 — DAREDEVIL #1 by acclaimed writer Stephanie Phillips (Phoenix, Planet She-Hulk) and superstar artist Lee Garbett (Death of Doctor Strange, Uncanny Spider-Man), arrives on April 1. One of the most anticipated launches of the year, DAREDEVIL #1 will be the second Marvel comic to be available in TRUE BELIEVERS BLIND BAGS, following last month’s Ultimate Endgame #1. TRUE BELIEVERS BLIND BAGS give fans a chance to purchase the issue in special sealed bags that contain one of the issue’s covers, including rare variant covers exclusive to Blind Bags and ultra-rare, one-of-a-kind, hand-drawn sketch covers by surprise contributors. Today, fans can see all the issue’s regular covers, the reveal of more sketch covers, including ones by Bill Sienkiewicz, Dan Panosian, Mark Bagley and Alex Maleev, AND a never-before-seen lettered preview!
DAREDEVIL #1 covers include a main cover by series artist Lee Garbett and variant covers by Rose Besch, Alex Maleev, Gabriele Dell’Otto, Joe Quesada, Greg Land, Peach Momoko, and Dan Panosian. A special Bicentennial Calendar Hidden Gem Cover by Sal Buscema, a Marvel Television Variant Cover spotlighting Muse by Marvel Studios Visual Development artist Jackson Sze, and a Foil Variant Cover by Ryan Stegman are also available. Fans can also purchase a blank variant cover. Any of these covers can be found in a TRUE BELIEVERS BLIND BAG, which can also contain special exclusive covers including a Marvel Rivals Variant Cover by NetEase Games and surprise original sketch covers just like the ones fans have discovering this past week in Ultimate Endgame #1’s True Believers Blind Bags!

Following in the footsteps of legendary creative teams from the title’s esteemed history, Phillips and Garbett set out to redefine Daredevil for a new age! A fresh start that’s perfect for newcomers and longtime fans alike, the new run sees Matt Murdock confront unprecedented challenges—both in his personal life as Matt Murdock and on the dangerous streets of Hell’s Kitchen as Daredevil. Matt will go back to school, taking on a new role as a law professor just as a new supervillain named Omen emerges with a mysterious vendetta against his super hero alter ego.
YOU CAN BURY THE BODIES, BUT NEVER THE GHOSTS!
Hell’s Kitchen is full of secrets – but no secret stays buried for long! As a fearsome new super villain named OMEN has targeted MATT MURDOCK, it will be his alter-ego DAREDEVIL who takes the hits! BUT BEWARE! This mysterious new player isn’t all that they appear – a secret Daredevil will have to learn quickly as he scrambles to settle into a life and status-quo we’ve NEVER SEEN HIM IN BEFORE!
“Lee and I are longtime fans of the character, so you’re absolutely going to get familiar faces and elements of the character that made us fall in love with him,” Phillips told Marvel.com in a recent interview. “But we’re also setting up a new status quo, new characters, and a new entryway for readers to fall in love with Daredevil alongside us. We’re not ignoring any of the previous stories, but we get to start readers off fresh and really develop something that is uniquely ours.”
