Marvel Comics has sent Major Spoilers a sneak peek of Daredevil Noir #1, that arrives April 8, 2009.

DAREDEVIL NOIR #1 (of 4) CALERO VARIANT (FEB092482)

Variant Cover by DENNIS CALERO
Things are about to get ugly in Hell’s Kitchen as a gangster Orville Halloran arrives on the scene as a rather unwelcome guest in Kingpin’s territory – it’s called Hell’s Kitchen for a reason, right? Matt Murdock is about to find out the hard way that half-truths are lies, and lies will get you into trouble – a lot of trouble!
I haven’t read any of the other Marvel Noir issues, but the Daredevil Noir #1, might just get me to drop $3.99.

Ooh gosh…the “Noir” line: Marvel’s straight-out, hit-the-nail-into-the-lid confirmation that the majority of comics should be grim and gritty. Partly added to by the fact that it’s released in the same year as “Dark Reign”, where everything gets…even darker.
By 2011, entire arcs of Marvel Comics will consist speech bubbles on pages covered in black ink, and will require the use of a flashlight to tell which character is which.
