Big & Small Screen Heroes – Equally Important!

Daredevil is the first among the four superheroes that are announced to get their own standalone series on Netflix. Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist are the other three. In the interview, Joe Quesada termed these superheroes of TV as ‘the smaller, darker part of the Marvel Universe’. However, he went on to claim that they are equally important as the Avengers. Here’s what he said:

“The Avengers are about saving the world. Daredevil, Jessica Jones and all those other characters, they’re about saving a neighborhood, they’re about saving a block, they’re about saving an apartment complex. So it’s smaller, but the stakes still feel the same because they’re just as important. To the people living in Hell’s Kitchen, saving their neighborhood is as important to the people in Manhattan when aliens start coming out of a portal in the sky and the Avengers came to save them.”

He further added that they are able to ‘explore a much darker sensibility, a more adult sensibility’ through the Netflix platform. He claimed that the choreography, fights and action in Marvel’s Netflix series is ‘heads and shoulders above’ any other show on television. It definitely seems factual for Daredevil, but I think it’s too early to comment on that since we still haven’t watched Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist yet.
