#anyways his social class/wealth is absolutely integral to his character

[elflikesfrogs]

irks me when people say daredevil is the batman of marvel because there's one fundamental difference between them, and it's that daredevil is dirt poor and batman is a billionaire. their wealth gaps are absolutely integral to each of their characters. daredevil would not be who he is if he was a rich man and i will die on this hill

#daredevil #i know this at LEAST applies to netflix daredevil #but it may also apply to comic daredevil #from what ive read so far it doesnt really go in depth what his financial status is? #like from the scenes with his father its implied that he grew up in some semblance of poverty #also his interactions with foggy in annual 1 #(him basically automatically calling foggy a rich snob) #imply that he was poor as well #anyways his social class/wealth is absolutely integral to his character #he is not batman because he is not rich #and thats a major fundamental difference #idk much about batman canon so i cant speak to that #but daredevil is absolutely influenced by his poverty #especially in the show #where they do a ton of work pro bono because they know the people need help and cant afford it #(the difference is that foggy is also poor in the show. so theres that) #elf rants
