description: Man without Fear is Daredevil: Year One. It makes many changes to Matt Murdock’s back-story and constitutes a revisionist history that may or may not be cannon. When Frank Miller took over Daredevil in the late 70s, he changed the character forever, and took the blood-red brawler from near-anonymity to comic book stardom. He also injected enough back-story to necessitate further explanation. The Man Without Fear story does just that.When Stan Lee first created DD in the 60s, he was a swashbuckling, devil-may-care lawyer who began fighting crime as a law school student. Miller’s retelling in Man Without Fear adapts Matt Murdock’s past to make the Miller years flow more smoothly.Daredevil is now the brooding, guilt-laden, intellectual Miller made his name writing about... Raised by a single father, an over-the-hill prizefighter with one last chance to make it good - a chance would cost him his life - Matt is taunted and tormented by other Hell's Kitchen children as he's promised his father he won't use his fists but his mind.Matt's life was irrevocably altered after being blinded by radioactive materials while saving the life of an old man. Though that same accident has given young Matt powers beyond sight, powers that he can use if he chooses to.Matt however doesn't choose wisely and must make amends, he follows his father's dream for him and goes to law school where he meets his best friend, and soon-to-be business partner, Foggy Nelson as well as the love of his life, Elektra Natchios.Matt Murdock must us his keen intelligence, super-senses and honed body to deal with the pain and disappointment life heaps upon him and if he's lucky the enigmatic Stick may help him be the champion his father never became.
