Daredevil and Spider-Man have long been inextricably linked, and for good reason. Each is a street-level hero who’s laid claim to an iconic New York neighborhood, so their paths cross often. They’re also governed by a similar moral compass, committing to defend the innocent and never purposely take a human life. For these and other reasons, the two heroes always seem to play well together: Spider-Man makes occasional appearances in Daredevil comics, and vice versa for the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen.
Their rapport is even beginning to take shape in Marvel’s Cinematic Universe. Charlie Cox — who’s played Daredevil in live-action for the past decade — has cameoed in Spidey stories like Spider-Man: No Way Home and the alt-universe cartoon Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man. Tom Holland’s Peter Parker hasn’t yet returned the favor, but with Daredevil getting his own MCU series, Born Again, there may be room for a different wallcrawler to make an appearance sooner or later.
