Hell, if you aren't generally familiar with the relative strengths/weakneses of Batman and Superman, you should probably be taken to Gitmo for a "few questions" before they shut things down.

Batman is:
- cooler.
- not afraid of green rocks.
- can go out in a red sun.
- isn't hated by Seth.
- beat Supes to within an inch of his life.
- has a better car, but could fly if he wanted to.
- has better villains.

Face it, f-d - your defense of Superman (like Supah 5) is misguided.


1. Batman IS cooler.
2. Batman is He isn't afraid of rocks, but his super power is "karate".
3. Didn't know red suns were a big issue in our solar system.
4. Wash.
5. Only in a comic book. In real life, Batman would be destroyed.
6. CANNOT fly. Horse shit.
7. Debatable. After the Joker, it gets pretty thin.

Just saying that is Batman and Superman fight, it's a bloodbath. One knows Karate and one can actually reverse time.

By day, Batman is a playboy billionaire.

By day Superman is a dork.

In real life, Batman wouldn't go toe-to-toe with ol' Supes; that's foolish. So he'd bring him down to his level (and really, it's as easy as repositioning some global satellites to filter out the yellow rays of the sun), wait until he's weak enough, and beat the mess out of him. See? Brilliance. And if that doesn't work, just poison his nads with a Kryptonite special and sit back and watch the fun.

Dealing with Supes is about as challenging as dealing with a bowling ball (and Supes is just as sharp).

Superman could take all his money if he ever felt like it. The only thing that stops Superman from slapping Bruce Wayne around and superpissing on Alfred is Superman.

I admit that if Superman went on vacation and Batman had a couple years to prepare for their battle with unlimited funds and technology, he might give him a run for his money.

By the way, one of the funniest scenes from Seinfeld is the argument about whether or not Superman has a Super sense of humor.

Now Superman was the man of steel,
But he aint no match for a Navy SEAL.
Now Chief and supe, they got in a fight:
Chief hit him in the head with some kryptonite.
Supe fell to his knees in pain--
Now chief's dating Lois Lane.

Well Chief and Batman had one too,
Chief hit him in the head with his shoe.
Hit him in the temple with his left heel,
Now Chief's driving the Batmobile.

I always liked Mr. Freeze and The Scarecrow.

Amazing how they screwed up Freeze in the movie version though. Big Arnie is hardly believable as a "doctor".

Here's the real Mr. Freeze

Um, there are about 582 violations in that movie, and you focus on that one? Clooney and Bat-Nipples are two huge ones.

Exactly. Sharp as a bowling ball.

And at least Batman has a much better dual identity. Superman thinking a pair of glasses would hide him is on par with his thinking ability. *hopes the entire world is near-sighted*

Since I was trying to help defend your position about Batman not having any cool enemies- yes, I focused on that one.

Damn, Bass. You are a whacko

Does Ghostrider count? I think that might be the worst movie I've ever seen period, though I have to admit I walked out of the Clooney Batman.

Ok,

here's the skinny-

you all are focusing on 'powers' and lets face it, superfag has him beat dead bang.
big
effin
deal.

thats the entire point behind my hatred, utter and complete hatred of that glamour boy, do goodie by the bookie, doesnt have to break a sweat or endure any real hardship or pain in battle (sans green rocks in the picture) etc etc etc.

where's the challenge?

in a straight up fight, supermo wins. (and why do i feel like also chiming in on: mary anne over ginger, mighty mouse over underdog and buggs over mickey mouse???)


what i think maybe FD aint considering is this:

if batman had a real reason to take on (down) supermo, then you have to realize that:

in his own mind/logic, even if its convoluted or a 'round the mulberry bush' stream of conciousness- he'd be convinced that he must, and if so, then nothing's outta play.

Batman makes up for his lack of powers, telepathy, flight, super strength etc with his mind, an almost to the pin point paranoia, planning and preparation. contingency plans for the contingency plans.

he has all he needs on ol' goggles, if he needs to, to get supermo to back off, or do what he wants, or ultimately take him down.

he knows his alias. fact.
he knows supermo doesnt want those he foolishly allowed to get close to him ("HOis Lame") in jeapardy. batman does the right thing,but by any means necessary.

he wouldnt be taking on supermo cos he doesnt like his tights- it would be due to some sorta perceived threat or compromise.

supes is done.

all the influence in the world, money, means and technology and again, armed with the kinda information on the toolbag to really back dude into a corner, and likely a healthy chunk of kryptonite (yes, my man is that prepared and willing to do that kinda thing if needed and thats 1 of the things that makes him so much better than a guy born with the silver spoon in his mouth- wake up, can fly, will travel- eff that)

if batman had to take supermo down, it'd get done.
it wouldnt be pretty, and it'd likely have batsy sittin there after the fact wondering if he had to go that hard, that heavy, if he did the right thing, perhaps putting others in jeapordy who are otherwise innocent in order to get his way, etc, but itd get done cos he believed that it had to be done and that would be that.

what type of resolve does clark kent show? where's his conflict? doesnt wanna slip up and take off his work shirt and reveal the red "S" if he agrees to play in the daily planet shirts and skins pick up game?

puhlease/



its not about puttin 2 guys in a ring FD, with all due. supermo wins that 10/10 times. agreed.

but by stacking them up with a 'tale of the tape' is missing the whole point behind batman to begin with.

never underestimate brains, steely resolve, determination, a good dose of stubborn, more than a little bit of an anger management prollem with a controlling, paranoid nature and a large spoonfull of distrust, with the means and resources to do anything necessary.

you can have 'flight'.
