don't u think Daredevil would fit the role of Batman better?

in a scenario in which Marvel beat Detective comics to the character of Batman, don't u think Matt Murdock would fit the role better?

think about it:-

1- he is blind (one of the characteristics of the bat) and a critical point in the conversation.

2- he depends on sonic waves (radar like) to feel his surroundings (hint at a bat? maybe)

2- he also lost his beloved ones, like Bruce lost his parents.

3- he also works in the night and in one of the darkest crime neighborhoods - hell's kitchen.

4- he is a lawyer, which makes the fact that he fights crime as a knight of justice, have more sense to it.

4- his character is as dark as Bruce, if not more.

5- he is far more agile than Batman, which gives him a point to me, and brings him closer to the simulation of a flight of a bat.

in my opinion Daredevil woul've been the perfect Batman, just give his suit to Matt Murdock, and we're set.

everyone is entitled to their opinion, but just to clarify things. i said that if Marvel created Batman but as Matt Murdock. they may make him the same as Bruce. it's their creation. u get what i'm saying? i just think Matt Murdock would be better than Bruce Wayne. and nothing stops Marvel from giving Matt Murdock riches and technology, right?

This is true I do see what your saying now. And I am sorry for being a bit of a fanboy earlier lol.

it's OKay, ur reply makes sense and is better than what i was waiting for. on another forum, people are arguing over meaningless things and basically are driving me crazy, lol

@funckygarcon: DD isn't dark anymore

@funckygarcon: Yes..Matt is more "Bat like"..and Bruce, it can be argued with his gadgets, explosives, and modes of transportation is more of a Daredevil. They could easily trade places.

hell yeah, that's my point and they will even be better if they switch places !! Matt Murdock as blind as a bat suits him, and the crazy modes of transportations of Batman suit a Daredevil.

Marvel already beat someone to the punch when they created Daredevil. The original Daredevil character was public domain so Stan Lee was free to create a character that was almost an exact copy accept he's blind and has a different origin. Daredevil does have more traits that make him comparable to Bats but DC never intended to really make him have anything in common with Bats, his original idea was loosely based on characters like Zorro & The Shadow or at the very least he has very similar traits to them.

yes, i understand your point. i just imagine this scenario where Daredevil lands the role of Batman before Detective Comics think about it

it's not the main characteristic here. everything else just screams Batman

i think Stan Lee could've easily made the connection between Daredevil and a bat, and maybe consider it. if not for DC already owning him, right?

Batman wasn't dark when he was first created, he grew into that. So did Daredevil. Current creative teams are going back to how it was when Stan was in charge. DD is still bad ass, the comic is just a little more light-hearted. He's trying to deviate from what a whole host of other writers just did with the character.

i agree

I dont like the light hearted take on the character, it makes it seem like just another generic superhero book

i fully agree, i hate Superheroes that are like Superman, so generic, so vanilla.

No, Because Batman was created from Bruce Wayne.

if he was created as Matt Murdock, would u complain about it? i think it makes sense

If he was created as Matt Murdock he'd be Daredevil.

But the OP is suggesting that there is no Batman and Marvel beat DC to the punch in making Batman...and that Batman is Matt Murdock.He's not taking Batman's already established role. (quote of Vance Astro)

just to clarify things

I understand. Alot of people liked the more darker Daredevil but any way you cut it, Daredevil's book is going to be similar to that of another character.

u gotta admit that generic and vanilla superheroes are boring, right?

Daredevil isn't generic no matter how you approach the character.Dark or Light-hearted, both are a stencil for character styles.

I can't stand it

Really?!? Would Ron Jeremy fit the role of Superman better? No. Not at all. I hear you, but completely disagree with your logic.

No. Batman is an extension of Bruce Wayne. For Daredevil to be Batman he must be Bruce Wayne

I would just liek to add that bats are not blind, they just have really bad eye sight.

I could definitely see Matt Murdock as The Batman given their similarities.
I could also see Dick Grayson in the role of a sighted Daredevil.

PS. OP, Bats really aren't blind.

No. Because he's disabled, and nobody wants a disabled person as part of their flagship trinity.

Sad but true.
