Supreme sensory abilities and a brain like a brass trap, Daredevil is a beloved superhero. Tattoos of our idols can signify admiration for the creation, as well as feelings of kinship.
Daredevil of the Marvel Comics franchise is not your average superhero.
Devoid of the ability to fly or hurl balls of fire at his opponents, Daredevil’s normalcy is perhaps what makes him such a relatable character. Blinded at an early age, Daredevil (or Matt Murdock as he is commonly known) compensates for his loss of vision through keen development of his other four senses. His crime-fighting abilities stem from his heightened awareness of his surroundings, as well as his intelligence and intuition.
Fans of Marvel will naturally gravitate towards Daredevil tattoos, if for no other reason than to pay homage to their enjoyment of his character or the Marvel comics in general. In this case, Daredevil’s striking image stands well on it’s own, or with other featured characters and tokens.
Daredevil tattoos may also attract men wishing to display their similarities with the superhero. Faced with what many would consider to be an extreme physical deficit, Daredevil rises above this and develops his other senses. Additionally, Daredevil is one of the rare breeds of superhero who is still just “a man”. Daredevil will very likely appeal to a man who may lead a somewhat ordinary life, yet prides himself on his valor, righteousness, and belief in goodness.
