Get ready to dive into the gritty underbelly of the Marvel Universe with Kingpin #1 (Running With The Devil)—launched in 2017 like a crime boss crashing a party! Written by the slick Matthew Rosenberg and penciled by the sharp Ben Torres, this issue kicks off a fresh series that puts Wilson Fisk, the Kingpin himself, front and center. Forget capes and tights—this is Spidey’s beefiest baddie stepping out of the shadows, trading punches for power plays. Here, Fisk’s spinning a new yarn as a “reformed” man, charming the public while Daredevil’s sniffing around, ready to call BS. It’s a devilish dance of deception, with a cameo from the Man Without Fear to keep things spicy!
Highlights:
-
Fisk’s Facade: Wilson’s playing the saint, winning hearts and minds— but we all know this guy’s got more skeletons in his closet than a haunted mansion.
-
Daredevil’s Doubts: Matt Murdock’s not buying the PR stunt, setting the stage for a street-level showdown that’s all brains, no brawn (yet).
-
New Spin, Old Sin: Kicks off the Running With The Devil storyline, tying into Marvel’s 2017 street-hero hype—think Bullseye and Elektra crashing the party later.
Current Value:
This bad boy’s sitting pretty at $3-$5 in near-mint condition (VF/NM 9.4)—a cheap thrill for a modern Kingpin classic! Graded copies, like a CGC 9.8, can muscle up to $20-$30, especially with that sleek Jeff Dekal cover turning heads.
Expected Value Trends & Upcoming Events:
Hold tight—Fisk’s stock could rise! With Vincent D’Onofrio’s Kingpin flexing in the MCU (Daredevil: Born Again dropped in 2025!), this 2017 gem ties into his renewed hype. The Running With The Devil event’s street-level vibe could get a nostalgia bump if Marvel leans into more grounded tales. Ungraded copies might climb to $8-$12 in a few years, with slabs potentially hitting $40-$50 if Fisk’s TV reign keeps fans buzzing. Snag it now before the Kingpin’s empire inflates the price!
Why You Need It:
This ain’t your typical superhero slugfest—it’s a slow-burn crime thriller with Fisk playing chess while Spidey and Daredevil scramble. That shiny cover’s a ‘90s-throwback flex, and the story’s a fresh take on Marvel’s baldest badass. Grab it before Fisk’s MCU glow-up makes it a hot commodity, and tell your crew you’ve got the issue where the Kingpin proves he’s the devil you don’t wanna dance with. Buy it quick, or you’ll be begging for a deal tougher than one of Fisk’s handshake scams!
