A Klaus Janson issue. Look at those shades and inks. He changes the entire look of the book. I like Gil Kane. I love this.
Story-wise, DD busts his girlfriend Heather’s dad, who (unbeknownst to Daredevil) wasn’t a bad guy but was a victim of The Purple Man. This means that in later issues Matt Murdock works to defend the guy who Daredevil put in jail. I think this was the first time he did this, but Frank Miller played with this idea quite a bit–the vigilante gets the suspect arrested, but the lawyer makes sure the system treats him fair.
Purple Man is pretty psychedelisized in this story. He also wears a cape, which is kind of lame.
But also fits his character.
It’s cool watching DD morph into one of Marvel’s most complex characters.
