In Timeslip, a hot artist of today is taken back to 1962 to get handed an assignment by Stan Lee. So what happens when Tim Sale, who's quite used to drawing the past (year 1 stories for Batman, Superman, Spider-Man and Daredevil) and the future for that matter (Heroes) is taken back to replace Bill Everett by his new friend Hiro?
He gets handed this assignment:
And he comes up with...
At this point in the experiment, artists aren't asked to work on the concept per se, so it's really just a costume change, but this Daredevil probably trades more on fear than fists. Hell's Kitchen really does become a sort of hell, and I wonder how much pitchforking the comics code would really have allowed (send Hiro to stop Wertham from writing Seduction of the Innocent immediately!).
What do you think of this interpretation? Cool Batmanizing of the character? Spawn of Spawn? Better than the yellow costume, but not as good as the red? leave your comments at the pentacle.

Did the X-Men prevent the creation of Cyberforce? Did Wolverine prevent Shadowhawk? Did the Hulk prevent Pitt? Did anyone prevent Rob Liefeld?
Early Image doesn't care about your puny copyright laws!
I wonder about the D logo on the forehead though....I mean, is the artist trying to say: "Yeah I definatly would of come up with that if it wasn't already done."
"devil" part of "Daredevil". Why not focus on the dare? Two words: assless chaps.
