Personally I love both, all their movies are great, but I believe that superman would win in a fight between the two. Superman is stronger and faster than batman, and can counter any of batman's gadgets with one of his powers or a gadget up in the fortress of solitude. A big reason batman fanboys believe he can win is kryptonite. Superman has proven on numerous occasions that he can overcome the effects of kryptonite with a radiation suit, or by flying through the sun. Even if he doesn't have one of these, he has still proven that kryptonite isn't an instant win. What is an instant win against batman is one good punch from superman. Imagine if what superman did to zod in the video above happened to batman? He would have been ko'd after the first punch superman threw. I'm sorry batfans, but superman would win in this fight. Let me lay out the rules for this fight: 1)Both know that they are fighting each other. I think this is fair because Superman could just as easily start a fight without Batman knowing as Batman could to Superman 2)No outside help- It's not a Superman-Batman fight if each calls in all of their super-allies 3)Only use facts that are mentioned in the comic books! I know, Superman would be able to turn back time if we include the movies, but that isn't who the superheroes are, so we will stick to what they have done in the comics. 4)Batman can't win "because he's batman" (the same goes to superman, but this seems to be more of a problem with the bat-fans) 5)Running away isn't allowed. By doing this, you effectively forfeit the fight 6)If you bring up certain comic books where the two fight, be sure there aren't any outside factors involving the fight. Two big ones for batfans are TDKR and Hush, both of which were certainly not solely superman and batman going at it.

  • Batman For any of my reasons to make sense, you must accept only one fact: Batman is smarter than Superman, especially in the tactical/combat sense. If you cannot accept this, then you are to stubborn to see reason, and there is little hope for you First of all, Batman and Superman never had a one on one fight with no outside help or modifiers in a comic book. However, that doesn't mean we can't have this argument. Some people (Gojira) just say that superman would just go and beat the -blam!- out of Batman, Because he is physically superior in every way. He is. And a fight is just a measure of physical capability, right? Wrong Who would win in a fight, Batman or a Tiger? Obviously Batman Superman or Doomsday? Superman, duh, it happened Batman vs. Solomon Grundy Batman. Detecting a pattern? The Batman is weaker than a tiger or solomon grundy, and Superman is weaker than Doomsday. But the reason they win is because they are smarter than their enemies. The smarter man wins is shown in many stories, like David and Goliath and even the Tortoise and the Hare. Not only does this appear in stories, but in real life. Sun Tzu, perhaps the most well known tactician ever, has many great quotes. Go to this [url=http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/s/sun_tzu.html]link[/url] and you will see many things that almost perfectly describe Batman. My favorite is "Be extremely subtle, even to the point of formlessness. Be extremely mysterious, even to the point of soundlessness. Thereby you can be the director of the opponent's fate." Who else describes that? To be fair, I need to put in a real life quote for Superman too:"The most effective way to do it is to do it." Seems to describe Superman fairly well, right. Well guess whose quote that was. It was Amelia Earhart's. So it doesn't work out that great in real life. The smarter man always wins is even prevalent in superman comics. Why do you think Superman doesn't fight Lex Luthor as much anymore? Because the writers realize how ridiculous the plots would have to be for Superman to beat him. THE SMARTER MAN WILL WIN. which is when people say "Batman wins because he's Batman" they are stating that Batman is smarter than his opponent, always. That is such a part of Batman that he isn't the same without it.
