Daredevil collected editions

Volume 1 (1964-1998)

The first volume of Daredevil is defined by the 30 issues worked on by Frank Miller. "It's not an exaggeration to say that Miller created a whole new mythos for Daredevil," writes Comic Book Resources. "Miller's run resulted in an unofficial edict for Daredevil writers that "Matt Murdock must suffer.""[5]

After Miller, Ann Nocenti became the first woman to write the character, inventing the villain, Typhoid Mary, and redefining the role of Murdock's love interest, Karen Page. Described as "Daredevil's Most Underrated Writer", Nocenti "reimagined Karen Page as a three-dimensional character who was just as heroic, if not more, than Daredevil himself". This was in contrast to Miller's depiction that made "Karen undesirable and a damsel in distress, incapable of helping herself or anyone else around her."[6]

As well as the below, the full run of Volume One was reproduced through Marvel's Epic Collection.

Volume 2 (1998-2009, Marvel Knights Era)

In 1998, Daredevil was cancelled and relaunched, with a new #1. Filmmaker Kevin Smith served as writer and Joe Quesada as artist. This relaunch "set the tone for the entire Marvel Knights line, directly inspired subsequent depictions of the character in film and television and set the template for how to relaunch a Marvel character."[7]

The rest of the volume was dominated by Brian Michael Bendis' 55 issues, then 33 from Ed Brubaker. Bendis said: "I plan for the biggest, most elaborate feast I can do and dive in and hope for the best. Also it's Daredevil. I've been thinking about it like since I could read and Daredevil's one of those books that a lot of my heroes didn't just work on, but they did their masterpiece on."[8]

As well as the below, the full run of Volume Two was reproduced through Marvel's Modern Era Epic Collection.

Volumes 3 & 4 (2011-2014, Mark Waid Era)

Mark Waid became the writer of Daredevil in 2011.[9] The third and fourth volumes largely tell a continuing story, despite the #1.

On the transition, Waid said: "We were willing to take chances as storytellers and that (Marvel) would back us. We were making such a huge paradigm shift for the character and his world and his entire method of operation. We'd actually been given the chance to renumber last year, around the time of issue 22-23, but we said "no" then because it truly would have been an artificial break. This time, it makes sense.[10]

Volume 5 (2015-2018, Charles Soule Era)

After Mark Waid's run on the title, Charles Soule took Daredevil past issue #600. His arc saw both Daredevil and his arch-nemesis, Kingpin, become Mayor of New York. On this, Soule said: "I love the 'city under siege' sub-genre, where people trapped in some untenable situation have to find a way to survive and escape. It's a little tricky to pull something like that off in Marvel's New York City, but I like how it came together here."[11]

Volume 6 & 7 (2019-2023, Chip Zdarsky Era)

Canadian writer Chip Zdarsky replaced Soule in 2019. On his approach to the book, he said: "Things can't be business as usual no matter how badly Matt wants them to be. This series is going to be about big questions and finding answers in strange places. (Matt) is trying to prove himself. That he can do the job."[12]

Volume 8 (2023-2025, Saladin Ahmed Era)

American poet, Saladin Ahmed, had been working on Marvel's Miles Morales series when he swapped to work on Daredevil, from September 2023. "I felt like I had a new, unique take on Matt and on Hell's Kitchen," he said. "That's at the center of this… him and his world."[13] Ahmed's Daredevil ran for two years, ending in September 2025.

In 2021, Marvel launched a new version of Masterworks books as "more affordable versions of this once high-priced line".[14] These were paperbacks, sized at 6-by-9in digest editions.

Marvel Gallery Edition Hardcovers

Marvel's Gallery Editions are large-format hardcovers that "emphasise the size of the pages printed rather than the amount of comics within. (This means) 13in/33cm in height, and 9.3in/24cm in width".[16]

Epic Collections

Marvel launched the Epic Collections line of collected comics in 2013. Marvel Senior Vice President of Sales David Gabriel said they were intended to be: "big, fat, color collections at the best price we can maintain."[17]

Though the books are often published out of order, Gabriel added: "When all is said and done, the Epic volumes will fit seamlessly next to one another on readers' bookshelves, presenting a complete and unbroken run of each title!"

The first Daredevil Epic released was Volume 18: Fall From Grace.

Modern Era Epic Collections

Daredevil's Modern Era begins among the earliest of Marvel superheroes. The first issue collected will be Daredevil (vol. 2) #1, from 1998. In comparison, for books like Spider-Man (2001) and Avengers (2004), the collections begin later.

Marvel Premier Collection

In late 2024, Marvel Comics announced plans for the Premier Collection, a new line of paperback digests "featuring Marvel's most celebrated and prestigious storylines and creators from its entire comic book legacy".

Daredevil: Born Again was released in February 2025, with a new afterword by writer, Frank Miller; and an foreword from actor Charlie Cox, who plays Matt Murdock in the Daredevil television series.

Marvel Platinum

The Marvel Platinum series was produced by Panini UK, focusing on a different Marvel superhero each month. Its aim was to reproduce a series of 'definitive' stories, largely aimed at new readers.
