Mister Fear

Born in the fertile imagination of Stan Lee and Wally Wood, Mister Fear has been unsettling the streets of Marvel's New York since his Silver Age debut in Daredevil #6 back in 1965 — a villain with staying power, still haunting comics six decades on. His corner of the Marvel universe is a distinguished one, sharing pages with the likes of Daredevil, Spider-Man, and Thor, which speaks to the kind of threat that demands serious attention. Most at home in the gritty world of Daredevil, he's the sort of classic antagonist who embodies everything that made Marvel's street-level storytelling so compelling — a sinister presence that has endured from the go-go Silver Age all the way through Ed Brubaker and Michael Lark's celebrated modern run. For fans who love villains with genuine comic book pedigree, Mister Fear is exactly the kind of character worth tracking down.
