DAREDEVIL 1.5 COVER. 2014.
Gouache, watercolor, and acrylic on bristol board, 13 × 19
″.

Daredevil 1.5 is out today! Along with my cover, there are a host of amazing variants that are available as well. You can see them in the preview at CBR. While I already detailed the process behind the cover previously, I didn't reveal the "wacky reference" that went into it. Obviously, I looked at (and unabashedly traced) a lot of Daredevil art as well.


Not sure why I felt obligated to straddle the tripod.

    1. It was the anniversary issue, so I figured I'd pull out all the stops. Also, I think all the graffiti would actually be tougher with an inked style.
