MAIN STORY

The series premiered in 1941*. Stopped in 1956 after 134 issues.

The series - that has nothing to do with Marvel's Daredevil that started in 1982 - contains several heroic characters, one of which is Bart Hill AKA Daredevil. He has no superpowers but is very skilled with his boomerang, and he is usually accompanied by his friend Tonia Saunders.
As time went on, Daredevil was slowly phased out and another series, Little Wise Guys, took over, but the original title was maintained throughout the entire run.

* The character was first published in Silver Streak Comics #6 from 1940.
