Set Description:
The slow build towards the end of 2023 now...
I think 883 issues in this set as of March 2022, when DD V7 starts, well more coming!
EVERY comic is White pages (or the best colored pages at the highest CGC graded copy) and the highest graded copy of that issue....with only a few exceptions which are noted in the issue description.
I see No reason to collect anything else!!
Also SIXTEEN copies at 9.9 out of about 75 9.9 graded Daredevil comic books covering 33 issues as of late 2019..
I haven't counted yet, but I think I have about 140 SS copies, many from Stan Lee, the balance from Jansen, Weeks, McDonald, Frank Miller now and a few others. even a Gene Colan!
The variants make it even harder, just hard to keep track of it all.
A few issues also have different publishing dates, making another few odd potential variants.
I have the Only copies of a number of DD issues, and one of only two of a number of issues.
Some of the later issues are actually hard to get in 9.8 grade, as the colors are exciting, mixed with dark shades that make or damage easily.
I also collect Stan Lee SS of any DD/ASM XO issues I can. This is a rartiy, as nobody has a Stan SS on issues 77 or 103. I also have Stan SS on the old school issues such as my favorite 156.
Within DD issues # 1 to 82, Doug (Captain Tripp) had many of the ONLY 9.8 graded copies, so 9.6 is as good as it gets for the rest of us!! Kenny has taken over the lead, but their obviously a silent non-CGC DD guy out there too.
More DD's coming!! V6 is tough!

A 9.4 OWW SS Apparent (SP) Copy.
Restored using a small cover trim (not me) and then I had it signed by Stan Lee!!
Beautiful copy, easy to claim it is a 9.6 but I am sure the restore brought it down a spot.
For those into the SS issues, ONE Copy at 9.6 I think OWW SS copy, ONE copy at 9.6 (SP) also signed by Stan, and then this copy at 9.4, the only SS copy at 9.4. I also know there is ONE CSBS 9.6 comic SS by Stan. That's it for the top graded copies, only 4 at 9.4 or above.
CENSUS: 2 in 9.8, 34 in 9.6, 44 in 9.4, 67 in 9.2 110 in 9.0 out of 5994 graded copies.
541 SS copies, 1 in 9.6, the highest grade, 4 more at 9.2 as of April 2023.
ey Comments. Origin and 1st appearance of Daredevil, (Matt Murdock). 1st appearance of, Karen Page and Foggy Nelson.
Art Comments Stan Lee story, Bill Everett art, Bill Everett and Jack Kirby cover.
Published in April 1964.
The only 9.8 copy seen sold went for $250,000USD in 2021
Expect to pay $100k for a 9.6 copy now! A WP copy went for $150k in 2021.
Still looking for a 9.8 or 9.6WP copy...
