The Story: "Tomorrow's Devil, Part 5"

...and your enemies closer! As the vicious attacks perpetrated by the monstrous and mysterious new figure Omen hit closer and closer to home, Matt Murdock, a.k.a. Daredevil, is more paranoid than ever — keeping his oldest friends just out of reach and getting up close and personal to finish what Omen started.

Why Collectors Want This Cover

This cover is part of a line-wide variant program tied to Alex Ross's upcoming Marvel Dimensions project, giving fans an early look at his painted take on Daredevil ahead of that book's release. As a virgin edition, it ships without any logo or text overlay, putting Ross's painted artwork fully on display — a strong pull for Ross collectors and anyone building out a Daredevil variant run.

Common Questions

Do I need to have read the earlier issues? This continues the "Tomorrow's Devil" arc — starting from Daredevil #1 gives the fullest picture of Omen's campaign against Matt Murdock, though this issue is written to escalate an ongoing conflict rather than start fresh.

What does "virgin" mean here? It means the cover prints without the logo, credits, or barcode overlay — just Ross's full painted artwork.
