"Daredevil is one of those characters that lends itself so beautifully to being able to use digital techniques. The way he perceives the world is so different from the rest of us. That to me is the exciting thing: the things that Pete and I will be able to play with in terms of seeing something through Daredevil's radar sense, and then not really understanding what he's looking at until you flip the page a couple of times, and maybe fade in to something that is more our point of view. Or just playing with the idea that Daredevil has a 360-degree range when it comes to how he perceives things with his radar sense, so you'd be able to play some interesting camera tricks. This is the kind of stuff that's harder to pull off in print -- that element of surprise that through Daredevil's eyes, you're not entirely sure what you're looking at until you turn the page.

The end goal is San Francisco, and there will be at least one of his supporting cast with him, although I can't say yet without spoiling anything. Originally all we talked about was a road trip, and it became our shorthand for it. As lovely of a comic as that would be, I question the dramatic imperative of, "This week, Matt sees a cornfield." I don't know if that's enough to draw you back. So we started building a "North by Northwest" angle to it -- a little bit of "North by Northwest," a little bit of "Planes, Trains and Automobiles," a little bit of Matt and Daredevil having to get across country, just thinking it's going to be a road trip, and then very quickly turning it into something with real espionage and danger and peril to it, while still desperately trying to get to San Francisco to beat the clock. Daredevil's options are somewhat limited. He can't rent a car for god's sakes, and he's miserable on planes. Pete, if you feel like drawing Daredevil on the back of a horse, then this is your lucky day!"


It sounds as if Mark Waid will indeed be penning the "All-New Marvel NOW!" Daredevil relaunch and that it will take the Man Without Fear away from Hell's Kitchen and into San Francisco instead! What leads him there exactly remains to be seen. What do you guys think?
