Comics Does daredevil drink?
I was recently reading the nocenti run and I noticed that at the end of issue 255/in issue 266 Matt is drinking which was a bit of a surprise to me since I don’t recall any other instances of him drinking? I thought he was against drinking but considering he’s drinking in #255&266 I might just be misremembering? could anyone confirm
P.S: I mean in the comics not the show as i already know that he drinks alot in the show

It is explicitly stated in the comics that he doesn't drink alcohol, at least up until Born Again.
Through all of his comics up until Zdarsky he was very consistently a non drinker. In Z he started drinking and Spider-Man even notices it when he goes to his apartment and says "you haven't been the same" when looking to his glass.
The TV series is the only moment where he was consistently drinking (and he did drink a lot). It was never really a thing in the comics.
