The scene is a dusty and isolated town, locked away in the inhospitality of the desert. Matthew Murdock has his tail between his legs and his red pajamas are nowhere to be seen. Will this emotionally lost hero step up to the challenge of saving this mysterious town from itself? Take a seat at the bar, pour yourself an icy Sarsaparilla and take the jump, partner!

Who is the mysterious new Power Man? Why has he taken Luke Cage’s old code-name? And why do his arms glow like that? It’s a slobberknocker on the streets of New York, as Daredevil’s machinations take on sinister new angles and a new hero rises to protect the innocent. If nothing else, he got the chain belt right.
The new Power Man enters the Shadowland arena, and he just may be able to defeat both Luke Cage and Iron Fist. Marvel sent Major Spoilers a sneak peek of Shadowland: Power Man #2 for you to check out.

Perhaps it will be Kraven. Or zombie Kraven. Or maybe it is the spirit of Kraven. Or maybe the question isn’t who will be the new Man Without Fear, but rather who with be the New Man Without Fear? Maybe I need to pick up an issue or two to find out what the hell is going on…
With Marvel’s newest mini-series Shadowland underway, writer Andy Diggle has taken New York’s resident extrasensory superhero, Daredevil, and given him leadership of The Hand clan of ninja. Formerly bitter enemies, The Hand approach Matt Murdock’s red-clad alter-ego to take control of an organization that seems to be the very antithesis of heroic.
Daredevil has a tough task ahead of him as he tries to change the clan into something a little more upstanding: with Matt’s moral choices shifting between good and evil, Shadowland has been referred to as a fight for Daredevil’s soul.
But what of Hell’s Kitchen, the hero’s stomping grounds? While Murdock is being morally ambiguous, who would take care of it in his stead? Who could replace the Man Without Fear? Marvel Comics posed this question through a series of teaser images, each featuring a hero that would presumably take Daredevil’s place as a hero based in one of New York’s roughest areas.
At the time of this post’s publishing, the four heroes who have been revealed in teaser images are Captain America’s former partner, The Falcon, mutant and X-Man Gambit, Wakandan royalty Black Panther and Nova, the hero of the Annihilation storyline and former New Warrior. Each teaser image begs the question: “Will (hero) be the new Man Without Fear?”
My bet is on none of them. They don’t have the guts.
Here’s another teaser to promote all the changes that will occur in Marvel’s Shadowland series.
