Stilt-Man, aka Wilbur Day, is a Marvel Comics supervillain, most commonly associated with Daredevil. Stilt-Man appeared in Daredevil #8 and was one of the earliest enemies of the blind hero. Day had engineered himself a pair of extremely long, telescopic metal legs, which allowed him to tower high over the ground. The character did not age well, as his powers were more a curiosity than a real threat. As of 2005, Stilt-Man is seen as a mere footnote and as an example of the arguably weird rogues' gallery Daredevil had in his early, pre-Frank Miller days — indeed, during Miller's Daredevil run, issue #186, Stilt-Man was portrayed as a miserable loser; he was cold-cocked and had the armor stolen by Turk, a small-time crook and an even greater loser than Day, who took on the Stilt-Man identity, contacted the Kingpin and offered to become his new assassin, only to be refused. ("It does not matter what armor or weapons you may have acquired, Turk. You are an idiot. I do not employ idiots.") Enraged by Turk's audacity, Day contacted Daredevil and informed him of a weakness in the armor. Thanks to Day's information, Daredevil easily disabled the auto-gyroscopes necessary for the armor to keep its balance and brought Turk down. Day later modified the armor to prevent Daredevil for using this newfound knowledge against him. Stilt-Man has continued to make sporadic appearances in various Marvel comics, wherein he has continued his criminal career and fought several superheroes, but without much success. In spite of his lackluster status, (or, perhaps because of it) Stilt-Man will appear in the upcoming Sinister expansion to WizKid's HeroClix collectible miniature game, alongside his nemesis Daredevil. It has also been recently revealed at Wizard World L.A. that Stilt-Man will appear in the upcoming Punisher: War Journal Vol. 2, due August 2006. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stilt-Man
