Hell’s Kitchen is About to Get Hotter in Daredevil Noir #1
The Man Without Fear has been a thorn in the side of organized crime—but hell’s about to get hotter! Acclaimed writer Alexander Irvine and fan favorite artist Tomm Coker present the next offering from the critically-acclaimed Marvel Noir line—Daredevil Noir #1! Things are about to get ugly in Hell’s Kitchen as a gangster Orville Halloran arrives on the scene as a rather unwelcome guest in Kingpin’s territory – it’s called Hell’s Kitchen for a reason, right? Matt Murdock is about to find out the hard way that half-truths are lies, and lies will get you into trouble – a lot of trouble!
Critics and fans alike are raving about Marvel’s Noir line!
