"Marvel Comics has clarified the decision to end ongoing series Daredevil later this year. When asked about the series&amp;#039;s cancellation, Vice President Executive Editor Tom Brevoort expressed surprised at the backlash that had followed the announcement. &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;ve been promoting &amp;quot;Who is the new Man Without Fear?&amp;quot; for three weeks now and yet everybody is surprised that Daredevil is ending,&amp;quot; Brevoort told Comic Book Resources. &amp;quot;I was sort of taken aback by the response.&amp;quot; He went on to explain that the new &amp;#039;Man Without Fear&amp;#039; was a natural continuation to follow the repercussions of current event Shadowland, in which Matt Murdock a.k.a Daredevil appears to become the Marvel Universe&amp;#039;s newest supervillain. &amp;quot;Taking a character like Daredevil off the canvas for a little while may make the heart grow fonder,&amp;quot; Brevoort continued, citing as an example the return of Thor in 2007 following a three year absence. Brevoort confirmed that Marvel always tries to have its major events result in significant changes, and teased that both Daredevil and the supporting players in his title would be severely impacted by the end of the Shadowland series. The current volume of Daredevil comes to an end in November with issue #512. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
