"The idea is that [Daredevil] left super hero life behind many years ago. Not just him, either - in the world of Cold Day In Hell, super heroes are long gone, at least in comparison to the way they operate in the present-day Marvel Universe. The reason for Matt leaving Daredevil behind is actually pretty simple, if you're using super hero logic. As we all know, Matt got his powers by being accidentally dosed with radioactive goop. Radioactivity fades with time, and in this story, the idea is that over time Matt's powers faded away too. He's still got all his combat training, but he hasn't used it for a very long time. He is, to put it pretty plainly, an ordinary older man with an extraordinary past that he's worked quite hard to move beyond. At least, that's our status quo as we begin.” -- Charles Soule
"I would say that at its heart this project has been my unabashed love letter to Frank Miller. Frank to me is a pure visual genius and his work has inspired me all the way through this project. I’m having so much fun exploring his storytelling and line work techniques he has employed, as well as Lynn Varley’s colour work, especially within the Elektra Lives Again graphic novel. I love to learn new things and I think it’s important to learn these lessons from the best of the best." -- Steve McNiven
