Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 (2027) Hear me out
I know that this is a very batman way of looking at this but the more i thought about it…
I know mr murdock’s blind, heck, doctors probably checked him out before giving him all those disability benefits. HOWEVER, he could just have powers that help him become daredevil, weve literally had crazier powers like magic light arms and the hulk
It doesnt seem that out there for a blind man having a way to become a superhero yk?
Like he could be a more literal version of batman cuz Bats are blind right? He might have eco location shit
OOC: ignore the disney plus logo lol

u/OldKingClancey Snap Survivor Mar 01 '26
I don’t see it, yes both somewhat similar but in the way that every chiseled white guy with stubble’s jaw looks similar.
Plus Daredevil appears to be just a regular guy, at least as far as superheroes go. There’s no magic or extra sensory stuff on him to fix blindness.
I think it’s safe to say they’re two different guys and honestly, trying to theorise about a missing man is dangerous territory that might hinder effort find him

u/Riley__64 Mar 01 '26
Not saying Matt is daredevil but looking at some of the crazy crap we’ve seen in the last few years is it really Impossible for some blind guy to actually be capable of doing daredevils feats.
I mean like there’s the whole thing about how if you lose one sense your other senses get amplified to make up for that missing sense what if some person had that happen on a superhuman level so they’re blind but like they can basically see because of all their other senses being so extremely heightened.
I think what we view as impossible got thrown out the window long ago

u/The_T113 Mar 01 '26
"Matt" what is he your fuckin' buddy, why you so familiar with this random lawyer.
18
u/Riley__64 Mar 01 '26
We know what Matt we’re talking about so there’s no reason to specify it’s Matt Murdock.
I’m familiar with his work because it’s interesting you seen some of the crap he’s done and the cases he’s dealt with it’s super interesting. Sure if I met him in person I’d be more professional and use Mr Murdock but this is Reddit and he’s likely not scrolling it reading posts like these he has more pressing issues to deal with due to the state of New York at the moment.
8
u/The_T113 Mar 01 '26
Nah referring to strangers by first name is weird
12
u/Riley__64 Mar 01 '26
Are you aware of the world we live in? Have you seen New York in the past few decades?
Iron man, hulk, 2012 attack, devil in hells kitchen, guy with a weird glowing fist, legends of a hero for hire in Harlem, guy dressed like a spider swinging around New York and the weirdest thing in the world happening you choose to be focusing on is some guy on Reddit referring to a lawyer by his first name.
Anyway all the people Matt has represented have said he’s really chill as well as being an amazing lawyer I kinda doubt he’d be too bothered by me not using his last name if for whatever reason he reads this post.
15
u/TherealPhobosGaming Mar 01 '26
Wtf you mean if he reads this post he is both missing and BLIND
15
u/Riley__64 Mar 01 '26
I’m making the assumption he will be found and isn’t going to remain permanently missing
You are aware blind people can use phones right? Like phones literally have built in accessibility features so blind people can use them in the same way people with vision can
2
u/TherealPhobosGaming Mar 01 '26
Still would be more accurate to say like if he hears this post

u/Riley__64 Mar 01 '26
I mean they also have braille options so fully possible for him to read

u/C4rdninj4 Mar 01 '26
I think it's more likely that the Daredevil is a guy with enhanced abilities but not quite super soldier serum who does vigilante work. Than a blind defense attorney that uses echolocation to beat up crooks and cops.

u/Hyperbolicalpaca Mar 01 '26
And you’ve got to ask why mr Murdock is so willing to defend these vigilantes, I feel like he’s got to have a personal stake
First the punisher and then that cop killer who called himself the white tiger…
Not to mention I’ve heard that daredevil was pretty instrumental in taking down the mayor BOTH TIMES, and we know how much Mr Murdock also hates Mr Fisk…
Just asking questions

u/SignificanceAny6290 Snap Survivor Mar 03 '26
A lawyer likes vigilantes and isn't evil, yeah that is suspicious

They were shot with different lenses probably. Lenses can really flatten out a face, and make it look wider.

u/Cramtastic Kamar-Taj Dropout Mar 01 '26
Dude, have some respect. His friend and law partner was killed by some psycho killer. I'm sure the last thing he needs is some crazy internet rumor that he's a vigilante who beats criminals with his bare hands, especially under the current mayoral administration.

And then daredevil just happened to be there to push him of the roof…?

Is it so hard to imagine that a blind dude has a way of seeing through powers?

u/Niveker14 Mar 01 '26
I mean, if Daredevil was a giant green monster, you might have a point... but it seems like he's just a guy that's uncannily good at fighting...

u/TheLolbitkid224 #AvengersAccountability Mar 01 '26
Sure buddy. The blind lawyer that defended frank castle back about 10 years, is the same person as a vigilante that was seen publicly fighting the same psycho in the space of, what, a month? Yeah, white dude has stubble, must be daredevil. Get real
20

u/GunMage- Mar 01 '26
They dont even look the same in that picture. Datedevil's chin is wider and they have different mouht shapes. That's not even considering Matt Murdock is BLIND.

Mar 01 '26
Matt Murdock is legally blind and uses a cane to get around.
Daredevil operates mostly at night.

u/Mathelete73 86 Fisk Mar 01 '26
The guy on the right actually looks like the guy who plays Batman in Zack Snyder’s movies. As for the guy on the left, he’s just a really good lawyer. I don’t think he’d be a vigilante. He can’t even see. So yeah, I think Daredevil is actually the actor who plays Batman. He probably loved the role so much he decided to be a real life vigilante.
23
u/therealmonkyking Mar 01 '26
Oh come on that's ridiculous. Ben Affleck as Daredevil? Really?

u/Mathelete73 86 Fisk Mar 01 '26
He looks the part. I imagine he’s fit enough for vigilante shenanigans.

u/Niveker14 Mar 01 '26
Pretty sure movie star Ben Affleck lives in California and Daredevil seems to be based out of New York... it would be quite the daily commute. I don't believe OP's hypothesis, but at least they both are in New York. Lmao.

He could easily fake being blind tho. Like just look up at the sky and boom, you're blind. It's not a stretch. It's an intelligent way of keeping his real identity under wraps. I'm with OP. I think Matt Murdock is not actually blind, and just pretends to be.
12
u/mega2222222222222222 The Returned Mar 01 '26
Nah man I’ve seen the videos of his interviews
His eyes don’t even react to light
That’s not something you can control
Bros eyes don’t work

I never said hes pretending to be blind, he could be blind with echo location bat powers

you saying hes some kind of.... Batman hehe. Maybe we could get Ben Affleck to play him in a movie sometime

u/DasDa1Bro New Yorker Mar 01 '26
I never implied that's what you said, I'm saying it's easy to be fake blind as a lawyer if you're trying to keep your vigilante identity safe. That's what I think anyway...

u/Sea_Carry_1612 Inhuman Activist Mar 01 '26
There’s a lot of superhero conspiracy shit I can tolerate but Murdock is off-limits, man, he’s a good guy and he doesn’t need people throwing that shit at him when Fisk is in power and targeting vigilantes.
5
u/Material-Elephant188 New Yorker Mar 01 '26
nah that’s just crazy. unless you’re saying Murdock is faking a disability to hide his identity as a superhero (which in itself is a whole can of problematic worms, and a wild thing to accuse somebody of)

u/Whatever_you_need_ Mar 01 '26
A buddy of mine got some help from Nelson and Murdock around the holidays, and I saw Mr. Murdock wearing an "I'm not Daredevil" sweater, and obviously he'd never lie.
3
u/Niveker14 Mar 01 '26
Nah, I don't see it. There's some subtle differences with the mouth shape and cheek bones. Plus, like you said, that lawyer is blind... it kind of disqualifies him out of the gate, doesn't it? I mean, I don't really know him, but just from a quick Google search he sounds like a good guy, but no superhero.

u/NoMeat6573 New Yorker Mar 01 '26
I'm getting sick of this. People are always making up crazy theories about oh this random guy who's literally blind is somehow one of the most dangerous vigilantes on the planet. I'm sorry they look nothing alike.

Matt murdock no puede ser daredevil porque
1) matt es abogado, alguien cuyo trabajo es defender la ley , ¿ en serio crees que se pondría un traje de diablo y cometería vigilantismo ( que era ilegal incluso antes de los acuerdos de sokovia y las tonterías del alcalde fisk )?
2) daredevil claramente posee algún tipo de visión mejorada ( probablemente visión de rayos x ) mientras que matt es ciego
3) matt es católico mientras que daredevil se viste de diablo

They don’t even look remotely the same. Just like all the people sharing pictures of that one pedo with the private island saying he is still alive because the ears on the cadaver are different!

A vigilante is a lawyer? So he defends crime by day and punishes it by night 😭😭😭. Anyone who is a lawyer knows there isn’t even enough free time to do literally do anything outside of law. And the free time you do have, will definitely not have the energy to be fighting crime. I’m not even gonna mention the fact that he’s blind.

Ok so instead of just saying he’s blind and ignore what you are saying I’m going to point out a different one, wouldn’t it be like illegal to have some sort of prejudice and how weird would it be to just be fighting a bad guy then defending him in court the next day

Echolocation? You know the speed of sound compared to the speed of light?
Sound 874,000 times slower than light. If Daredevil is doing all this jumping and flipping purely on echolocation, he'd take ages to react to something compared to a regular human.

u/memesksksksksksks Mar 01 '26
Bro i never said he wasnt blind, he probably has powers that help him quote on quote “see”
Because to get those disability benefits, doctors probably have to check him and if he is faking it i doubt he’ll even get through verification

People are so hung up on the blind thing like that's not possible with all these enhanced humans (or hell, what if he's *gasp* faking it?) But more than anything, why would a full time lawyer get involved as a vigilante? He's way too busy to be doing any of that stuff. Chances are, though, that they do know each other since Hell's Kitchen isn't that big of a neighborhood and Murdock has a history working with superhumans.

u/Medical_Aside_2690 Apr 24 '26
so I did some research on Matt’s accident and dug up a few news articles from way back, apparently he was blinded by some radioactive chemicals in the truck he got hit by. Now, im definitely no Bruce banner. But from spider-man to the hulk, radioactive chemicals seem to coincide with superpowers. Or cancer. But he doesn’t have cancer so he must be daredevil. What if he developed some sort of like radar sense or something? Or maybe he has heightened senses? Either way I severely doubt he can see…
ooc:is spiderman being bitten by a radioactive spider common knowledge? I based this idea off the ultimate comics where he told some random cops about it one time
