With Daredevil's big 30th anniversary right around the corner, Marvel Age #127 unveiled the new miniseries Daredevil: The Man without Fear. Written by Frank Miller with art by John Romita Jr. and Al Williamson, the story explored DD's early days as he trained with Stick to master his new, ultra-sensitive senses. 

Also in this issue, a Marvel Movie Update talks up a possible Doctor Strange movie to be directed by Wes Craven, as well as an equally theoretical Black Panther movie to star Wesley Snipes. The article mentions a Blade movie but says it could star L.L. Cool. J. The article goes on to mention the new Marvel Films, with Avi Arad as President and CEO. 

And the continuing merry-go-round of articles about Marvel licensed projects lands this month on X-Men anniversary holograms.
