// Archive commentary
Daredevil #177 lands squarely in the middle of Frank Miller's celebrated tenure on the title, the run that redefined the character and cemented Hell's Kitchen as one of comics' most atmospheric settings. Written and drawn by Miller with inks by Klaus Janson, the issue continues Matt Murdock's tutelage under the blind sensei Stick, deepening the martial-arts mysticism and hard-edged crime storytelling that made this era a touchstone. It arrives amid the ongoing Elektra and Kingpin threads that would come to define the series, making it a connective chapter in a period collectors pursue as a complete narrative arc.
