When the internet's favorite shark, Jeff, lands in Hell's Kitchen, he gets schooled by the Man Without Fear himself. Kelly Thompson and Gurihiru blend cuteness with edge, offering Jeff's first printed season and a surprise Hulk showdown—all in the debut issue.

Marvel’s newest crossover lands with a splash: Jeff the Land Shark, the four‑legged internet star, joins forces with Daredevil in a debut that mixes adorable chaos with street‑level grit. It’s a fresh entry point for anyone who’s ever followed Jeff’s antics or admired Daredevil’s relentless resolve, and it lands just in time for the February release window.

In this opening chapter, Jeff’s luck takes a wild turn—he wins a lottery, gets a spa‑day at the groomer, and then finds himself paired with Matt Murdock for a crash course in real‑world courage. The iconic blind vigilante hands Jeff a lesson in fearlessness, and the two end up taking on a surprise cameo from the Hulk, turning a light‑hearted romp into a high‑stakes showdown.

What makes this issue a must‑pick isn’t just the premise. Kelly Thompson brings her trademark humor and sharp dialogue, keeping Jeff’s silliness grounded in a story that feels earned. Gurihiru’s art jumps between cute panel‑by‑panel expressions and kinetic action sequences, delivering a visual style that works for kids and seasoned Marvel fans alike. Plus, it marks the first time Jeff’s latest season appears in print, giving collectors a tangible piece of the shark’s ongoing saga.

If you’re hooked by Jeff’s printable debut, you’ll want to flip back to the ongoing It’s Jeff series, now available in hard copy, for more of the shark’s everyday mischief. The same creative team expands Jeff’s world beyond the digital realm, making the crossover feel like a natural extension of his larger story.

Grab a copy of It’s Jeff Meets Daredevil #1 and see how a tiny shark learns to stand tall next to a legendary defender of justice. It’s a quirky, heart‑warming adventure that promises more surprises down the line.
