In the letters column of #63, a reader actually complained that an issue went by that didn't mention Daredevil's blindness.... and the guy was serious! He felt that a new reader might not appreciate the awesomeness of Daredevil if he didn't know DD was blind.<BR/><BR/>This blog writes itself sometimes....Adam Barnetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08573914395859734760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1445236716513895247.post-11705714469604117392008-06-05T09:00:00.000-05:002008-06-05T09:00:00.000-05:00Oh Foggy, your utter dimwittery is just so amusing...Oh Foggy, your utter dimwittery is just so amusing.

Not only did he assemble that billy club will all the gadgets in it, he seemingly knew his way around every problem imaginable. Another favorite of mine is when he identifies the vegetation on Skull Island as being of a kind "such as Earth has never seen for millions of years!" in issue #12. How would <I>he</I> know that?<BR/><BR/>Then there's his habit of reminding the reader (or himself, it could be some weird inferiority complex) of everything he can do "better than a sighted man." I wonder what prevented Stan from putting interior design and surgery on that list? :)<BR/><BR/>Oh, and that Gladiator scene with Foggy totally cracks me up. "Don't try any funny business!"
