Who is the more interesting character: Batman or Daredevil?

In regards to their personality, beliefs, upbringing, personal code, motivation, personal interactions, weaknesses, supporting cast, rogues gallery, and the tragedy that inspired them to become a crimefighter. I'm not talking about who would win in a fight, because I already know what the popular answer would be. I'm talking about the more complex character.

Batman.

Daredevil. He actually has a personality

Batman is more complex

Batman has had the best comic book stories out of all the superheroes only Superman, X-Men & Spiderman come close so yeah Batman. With that being said much respect to Daredevil, he's really interesting.

Six in one hand. A half dozen in the other.

I prefer Matt.

uhh from what ive seen batman is sooo boring

maybe because dc has a problem with shoving him in everything, so he just gets annoying

maybe media is lying to me, but if thats true,, i would go as far to say batman sucks as a character

@spider-manwins: snyders court of owls was good, batman eternals wasn't so bad either, for some it might seem repetitive, but it's not as bad as.....

-avengers arena

-avengers initiative

-avengers

-new avengers

-avengers world

-there's more but I forgot what else they had on the title, basically you get the point

Also I say bats, I've been liking his books and him as a character, daredevil isn't so far behind though

@redatom1234: his solo titles might be better

but from what ive seen, every major dc event has him doing pretty much everything, which to me is annoying

I like daredevil a lot but batman all the way

Batman.

@spider-manwins: I guess it's within his character now, I mean since the JLU cartoon(maybe before) batman has been at the centre of almost everything, but it's indirectly, I think part of his character is being the one you can rely on at ALL times, unlike superman who can be kryptonite poisoned and he's out of the game. Also not everything, he wasn't the main guy in forever evil, cyborg was. Also he hardly shows up in some events, when he does, because of his character, he holds a huge presence. Making it seem like the others are outshone. This might explain what you mean.

Batman for life...

I like Batman more, but Dardevil is easily more interesting. Bats is essentially a Gary-Stu. If you gave his characteristics to any other character, they'd be hated as being too perfect.

Daredevil . Batman is boring

Depends on the writer

Batman. No contest. I mean that.

@redatom1234: i hate characters that are shoved into everything

like if space aliens were invading another planet, spidey wouldnt even appear in that story,

in dc, however, they somehow shove batman in there

@spider-manwins: Because people would b!tch just like how people b!tched about Goku not bein the savior of the planet.

Change title to..

"Whos more interesting? Morrison or Bendis?"

Batman by a country mile.

I like how some writers explore the possibility that Batman is just as crazy as the villains he pursues. I can't really comment on Daredevil as I haven't read a great deal if his books. Apart from The Man Without Fear story line most of my exposure to DD has been through his frequent run ins with The Punisher. I didn't like him since he fought with my guy, Frank Castle, but I still liked him well enough outside of those encounters. That's not enough for me to say anymore than I have in the past and continue to find The Batman fascinating.

I don't think either of them are boring. I just find DD a little more interesting.

Batman. Just about everything about him is more interesting.

Yeah, but then think about it.

Pretty much everyone from the original League gets trapped in the Firestorm Matrix...except, the one human. Even without being the main guy in Forever Evil, he was still given a lot more to do than his peers.

@scouterv: yes, thank you. those are great examples. marvel doesnt overuse their icon, but dc definitely gives batman waaay too much stuff to do.

to the point where its annoying.

batman narrowly

Matt Murdock is the more interesting character to me.

Who has overall better stories in comic? Batman by infinite Mile

Daredevil.

Daredevil. I feel like some people are just saying Batman or DD based on favorites but their asking about their complexity and DD is just more interesting. Batman is still an interesting character just not as interesting as Matt, i mean cmon he's fricking blind.

Daredevil

Batman duh, only haters disagree

The hell are you talking about? you dont even read Batman or DC comics for that matter and yet every single post you make ends up bashing those characters. I dont like playing the Marvel/DC fanboy card but you definitely have something against DC characters which you cleverly disguise as opposing Batman wankery. What about Spider-Man? or Spider-God as you love to call him,he's had just as many mainstream media appearances in the last 15 years as Batman,I dont see you complaining about that.

And Batman doesn't? Batman's had more shifts in tone and personality than any other character,he can be written as any character, happy,brooding,violent,psychopathic etc and still work, he can be written with 2 completely separate personalities as Bruce and Batman, there's a documentary about him, research has been conducted on Batman. You can prefer Daredevil by light years,you can believe he has a vastly superior character but dont go around posting non sense,stick to facts.

@scouterv: um....yeah, I sort of forgot about that. But then instead of seeing this as one of the list of things bats shouldn't be able to do(kick spectre, almost take down the league-twice, being able to do ANYTHING to darkseid) we might as well reinvent his character as someone who is relevant to everything. I swear this guys power level fluctuates more than the hulk. PIS is a superpower when used right. Also batman does have the biggest presence in all of comics barring supes and spidey. Shoving him into a book may sound bat but....actually I ran out of ways to defend it. Let's just leave it at that.

@spider-manwins: I wouldn't call it shoving, he's only in about a couple of titles and almost all of the pre 52 story arcs. I guess not adding him in would make you wonder where he is, and let's face it, most of the time batman does his own thing to save the day, without him. We'd still have to worry about the threats, I think that's what his key skill is based on, analysis and action, instead of just...action.

Don't get me wrong, It' not like I don't get it. He's the GD Batman. To 99% of the general populace and comic book fans, there's nobody cooler. At times it's like he can do pretty much anything. He's the money maker at DC.

Thankfully, unless you're actively reading Batbooks, you don't get forced to read about him save for event books, so if you don't really want Batman, you typically don't have to have him.

@scouterv: yeah, u summed it up perfectly

Batman

Batman and Daredevil are my two favorite superheroes, but I think Batman is a more complex character. A lot of it has to do with how crazy he is and how his villains reflect the different facets of his personality. Although, I think Daredevil's been more interesting than Batman for the past 15 years. That Bendis run was better than anything Batman related since the 80s, I think. Batman is my favorite superhero, but I really don't care for the recent interpretations of him. I find Scott Snyder's Batman to be boring.

Daredevil by far.

Daredevil

The World's Greatest Detective.

That said, Daredevil is pretty cool too.

I don't get the point of these threads at times...

Terry McGinnis

I dont care for Batman. Daredevil grabs me more.
