03/22 - Daredevil: Cold Day In Hell Interview

The Daredevil: Cold Day In Hell mini is coming April 2, and Newsarama had a chance to speak with creators Charles Soule and Steve McNiven about the story. They also have several lettered preview pages from the first issue!

Some snippets...

Charles Soule:

"I'd had the basic premise for this story in my mind for a while, as something I was considering doing toward the end of my run on the main Daredevil title. When that wrapped up, the idea that became Cold Day In Hell stuck in my mind, and at some point I discussed it with Steve as something we could do together. Fortunately, he was interested, and Marvel was willing to let us both take the time we needed to do it right. Of course, that idea – and yes, this would have been back in 2018 or 2019 – was just the seed of what the book eventually became. We've both poured a lot of thought and sweat into this one to make it what it is. I think it's some of our best work."

Steve McNiven:

"Some of the earliest designs that I made were done before we had solidified the overall story. I had Matt much larger and bulkier initially but we decided that a leaner sinewy look worked much better. The Daredevil costume that Matt puts on in this story is all stitched up from having been torn up in a battle long ago. That design didn't take shape until issue two but looked so good that I went back and added it into previous drawings."

Daredevil: Cold Day In Hell starts April 2.
