The Daredevils

The Daredevils was a short-lived monthly comic book title published from January to November 1983. The eleven issues featured reprints of Daredevil comics and original Captain Britain comics written by Alan Moore, with art by Alan Davis. Issues 1 through 4 reprinted Spider-Man comics, which were replaced in issues 5 through 7 by Doctor Who Magazine reprints. Merlin the Wise who first appeared in The Neutron Knights made a cameo appearance in the Captain Britain story A Rag, a Bone, a Hank of Hair... in issue 1 as a face of Merlyn.

The three reprinted comics were Moore's Star Death, 4-D War and Black Sun Rising, coinciding with the introduction of Special Executive to the Captain Britain comic. There were also articles, original Night Raven prose stories and short comics, mostly written by Alan Moore. Alan Davis created a Special Executive pin-up for issue 5 and the issue 7 pin-up, which featured Captain Britain, Daredevil, Night Raven, and Special Executive. The re-introduction of the Special Executive in issue 5 was accompanied by the article about: the special executive!.

In 1995, the Captain Britain stories were colourised and reprinted in X-Men Archives Featuring Captain Britain #2-5.
