While doing the publicity rounds for Avengers: Age of Ultron – out now in UK cinemas – Whedon said “I fought for Daredevil to be a film instead of a TV show. Then under the auspices of Drew Goddard and Steve DeKnight… I’m dying to see the show but they released it just as I started the press tour!”
“I like him because he’s basically Marvel’s Batman, thanks to Frank Miller basically. So for me I didn’t think they’d be able to sustain that sort of mood on TV but TV has changed so much. It’s come up so much that I think it might just be the right place.”
Why Joss Whedon fought Marvel to make ‘Daredevil’ a movie

I’m so freaking glad Daredevil got TV instead of a Movie. And Weadon needs to chill with the Marvel’s Batman bullshit. It gets so tiresome
-
Lol. Its not a bad thing though. Batman is kickass. Daredevil is kickass.
-
Also don’t let trolls get to you bro they are all tiresome and that negativity shouldn’t bring you down.

I wish it had of been a movie but the show is great anyway. Hopefully Cox will pop up in the flicks. Daredevil is a great character and I think why some liken it to Batman is because of the mood of their comics. Though in character and setting etc they are totally different.
Like someone said below both characters are kickass and nobody should get offended if they are likened to each other because really it is probably a compelment to both characters.
I love Batman and am a life long fan, what makes Marvel’s comics accessible to me is the character Daredevil because of the mood of the characters comics.-
I’m not really offended by the comparison, I just think of them as to very different characters. I enchounter a lot people who call DD a Batman ripoff/copy/wannabe etc. and it just irritates the heck out of me. I love both characters so much and have been reading them both for a long time. That’s the only reason I get offended.

Yeah thats what I mean dude fuck all that negative shit. I follow this and Batman news comments and by far your one of the most kickass marvel fans I know. I actually encounter a lot of DC/Batman hate but I say fuck all that noise. Ps:Excuse the language its just passionate cursing lol.

Thanks man! Appreciate the kin words! You’re awesome!

Thanks and no problem!

Totally get that, there are so many idiots on the net who just like to stir and argue with people. One thing that drives me nuts is when some say DC characters are totally not relatable which is ridiculous because I myself find DC characters more relatable the Marvels in particular Batman. Though I adore Marvels characters in particular Daredevil and some of Hulks comics.
Though I find altogether this whole DC vs Marvel thing ridiculous, both are great in there own way. I say like whatever you want to like, sure you can have your own opinions but this childish DC vs Marvel thing is just ridiculous to me.
Anyways after that long ass rant I can understand why you get annoyed, hope you have a good day.-
Also want to add I agree with the below poster you are a kickass Marvel/Daredevil fan I’ve seen you heaps around here

Thanks! You guys are really awesome!!!! I swear I’ve been having a really great day today and both your kind words only make it even better! I really appreciate it!
Yup I can relate man. DC definitely has relatable characters without a doubt. It doesn’t matter what kind of powers they have, what matters is the core of their characters! Their personality basically is what we as readers find relatable/inspiring.
I remember Daredevil actually helping me through depression when my best friend took his own life. The sheer determination, willpower and most of all, watching Matthew Murdock triumph over his own depression helped me escape my own abyss. The guy has faced so much darkness and tragedy, and he still retains his humanity. Daredevil is the ultimate underdog! He’s a beast like no other! I love the way he treats women too (same way I am). Very warm, tender and loving. I’m the same way.
Such a powerful character, that amazes me and inspires me to this day!
