* ''THE TOP TEN REASONS WHY NO ONE IS SENDING LETTERS TO DAREDEVIL'' according to one Jim Krueger (that's issue #317):
** 10: Current readers are too scared to write letters. Since there's only one man without fear and this book's about him, you're expecting too much of us.
** 9: Readers bought off by pinhead competition.
** 8: Misbelief that letters must be written in braille.
** 7: New "ink rationing" movement is currently sweeping the country.
** 6: 1-900-psychic-hotlines are making writing obsolete.
** 5: Concerted effort of the "NO KAREN PAGE--NO LETTERS PAGE!" society (due to the recent break-up of Matt and Karen's relationship).
** 4: The "SAVE THE TREES" campaign is working.
** 3: Recent hoarding of new "ELVIS" stamps. [[note]]He had just died.[[/note]]
** 2: Unfinished letters mistaken for homework by hungry domestic animals.
** And the number one reason why no one is sending letters to DAREDEVIL (drum roll, please!)… because no one really believes their letters will appear in letters page when space is always filled with my top ten lists!

* In the back-up story of the first issue of MarkWaid's run, Matt is disturbed by a loud "CRONCH" sound. He discovers that it's Foggy eating snack-food very, very loudly. The sound effect is even colored orange like the food. The subsequent "Foggy losing weight" subplot is also very funny.
