Notes

• At the end of this story is a one page feature entitled "Daredevil's Billy Club". It provides information on the crimefighter's notorious weapon. For the first time, more emphasis is given on the ability of Daredevil to use his weapon as a projectile.
• "Leach's" name is mistakenly also spelled as "Leech". Regardless, the gentleman appears to drown in this issue.
