Daredevil vs Spider-Man

Daredevil. His radar sense does more than spider sense.

I love both characters but this is a no contest. Spidey all the way.

Spider-Man!!! it's not even close. DD is great and skilled... but come on.

We're currently talking about a blind Spider-Man going up against DD with only his Spider-Sense. Daredevil's radar sense has been depicted as being way more resourceful over the years allowing DD to see major shapes of objects like buildings, ect.

This issue was actually covered a long, long time ago in Peter Parker the Spectacular Spider-Man #25-28. A villain called the Masked Marauder temporarily blinded Spidey and he was practically worthless. DD had to teach him how to use his other senses to survive.

That's not a fair assumption... DD had years of training and being blind... In those issues, Spidey gets blinded and freaks out... Which is fair and normal given the situation...

Already covered....lol

Well it's the one and only time it was a story...

I retract the question.

 

[The Endless]

If Spidey was blind, and was used to being blind, wouldn't his spider sense work in the same way as Daredevils?

 

[KevanG]

Not really. It detects threats to him so unless the area was on fire he couldn't find a way out of a room. It would stop him from banging his shins at night though.

I don't think it would. It's always warned him of danger and little things like choosing which door hides a secret passage or which wire to cut when defusing a bomb (not that those things have actually happened, just for instance). Daredevil's radar sense has been drawn over the years as an actual second sight like this:

Like I said earlier, during that story DD helped Spidey hone his other senses to adapt. If he did this for years and learned how to utilize his Spidey sense better he could probably figure how to use it to get around. But the story only covered a span of 24-48 hours. But I can't see Spider-Sense doing what DD's radar sense does above.
