About This Series:

    This is a follow-up to the Marvel publication, "Daredevil/Shi- Blind Faith".  It is simply a crossover comic featuring the sexy Japanese heroine Shi, from the Crusade publisher, and the blind martial artist Daredevil, from Marvel Comics.  This "first issue" is really just a continuation of a story started in another comic, the #1 factor used to appeal to collectors.

    This was a pretty good superhero comic.  I'm not a great fan of the Shi comics, although I like the character.  She's kinky enough, and a capable heroine, but usually not so interesting in comics.  Marvel's Daredevil was a great character to put her with.  He, too, is a martial artist.  They start out at odds, but ultimately end as allies.

Issues:

Issue #1January 1997.  Shi is, at first, brainwashed to fight Daredevil by the Makoto Clan, a renegade sect of Daredevil's enemies, the evil group of ninjas known as "The Hand".  Once that's all cleared up, Shi and Daredevil team up to take down the Makoto Clan.  The artwork is great and I enjoyed the story.  Shi is definitely a sexy, likable character.  The whole thing between Shi and Daredevil, though, is very similar to the relationship between Daredevil and Elektra in Marvel Comics' titles.  I just really enjoyed this appearance of Shi!  It's a great comic for Daredevil fans, too!
