The tension-torn adventures of comics’ most put-upon super hero, the Amazing Spider-Man, continue in another round of Marvel Masterworks classics!

And when that bestial baddy teams up with the vengeful Kraven the Hunter—well, it’s enough excitement to give a hero an ulcer—and it does!

Born to a past-his-prime prizefighter, Matt Murdock’s luck always ran a step behind his good intentions. When a daring act to save a man’s life results in an accident that blinds young Murdock, he finds that the same accident has enhanced his remaining sense to super-human levels. After his father’s murder those powers make him Daredevil, the protector of the New York’s mean streets. Launched in 1964, Stan Lee and Bill Everett’s Daredevil debut was as gritty as they came, a tale of murder and sacrifice tempered with the desire to protect the downtrodden. Matt Murdock was someone different, and you’ll see just why in his inaugural Marvel Masterworks! Featuring the first appearances of core characters like Foggy Nelson and Karen Page, as well as classic villains like the Owl, the Purple Man, Stilt-Man and Electro, and guest-appearances by the Fantastic Four and the Sub-Mariner, they’re classics as only Stan Lee made them!

The Hulk is gone, transformed back to mild-mannered Bruce Banner — seemingly forever. But Banner knows the Hulk well enough to realize he never stays buried long. And while the rest of the world breathes a sigh of relief, Banner knows he must prepare — for the day when the monster returns. Traveling to a deserted corner of America, he finds the Hulk’s half-alien son Skaar waiting to take revenge on his father. The boy is young, angry…and powerful. But he’s not nearly a match for the Hulk. Not yet, at least. So now it’s up to Bruce Banner to train the boy. The lessons will be hard and will see Skaar stand against the greatest fighters in the Marvel Universe: Juggernaut, Wolverine, Daken and more. But there’s no room to pull punches because Norman Osborn has decided it’s time to bring back the Hulk. Has Banner trained Skaar enough to play David to Hulk’s Goliath and kill him once and for all?
