Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) Daredevil season 1
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) To show the two different suits, which are described in the design section. The prose mainly focuses on the development of the costumes and cannot clearly 'paint a picture' of what the suits are, what they look like, how they differ, etc. The image is high quality, coming from promotional material, and so gives clear looks at both suits.The image only shows the head and shoulders/chest of Cox, but this allows focus on some of the more notable and significantly discussed aspects of the costumes, namely the mask for the black vigilante costume, and the cowl, profile, rivets, black sections, and overall significant change from the vigilante costume in the red classic suit. For something as visually oriented as costume design for a television series, having visual representation of aspects thoroughly discussed in prose allows for clarity and better understanding for readers unfamiliar with the topic, and helps differentiate things that the prose can only differentiate with basic descriptions (specifically, the vigilante and superhero costumes being signified by those terms, which may not be clear to casual readers, or just by black and red, respectively, which give little information).
Not replaceable with
free media because
(WP:NFCC#1)
No free alternative exists, as the only clear images of each costume available come from the series itself and promotional material. The promotional material is preferable as it can focus on the costumes, like this does, rather than focusing on the story and specific episodic direction, and this set is the best of said material as it was released specifically to give viewers a decent look at the costumes. Any image proposed to replace this one will therefore not adequately fulfil the desired purpose.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) It is just being used in the design section of the above article only, and will not be applicable in other articles given that it concerns this specific prose (even in future seasons of the series, as they will primarily use the superhero suit only, not the black vigilante one, and so will not require visual representations of both).
