    Well not scientific but I googled "Spiderman" and got 21,000,000 results.
    Googled "Batman" and got 76,600,000 results.

    I think the answer is Batman!

    Yup...The Pow! Zap! Bam! (where'd you get Bop? ) sound effects are inescapable when it comes to the general public's interpretation of comic books. Thanks William Dozier....

    I'm thinking Batman...he's been around a lot longer, and so has decades of being merchandised, a good deal more than Spider-Man. And you cannot underestimate the impact worldwide of the Adam West TV series. Forty + years later and people still think comic books are pow! zap! bam! Quite a number of comic related news articles start off with that phrase in some form, including a few about the Spiderman movie. In fact, I bet somewhere today there was an article done referencing the Disney-Marvel deal that either started out with that phrase or Holy Merger, Batman! or such. no, never mind, a quick google showed me that MSNBC started their article with the word Pow!
    Anyway, I'm saying Batman.

    I think Batman is still more recognizable than Spidey....Spidey is more "current" but Batman has been around longer....he has Spidey beat by 23 years. Plus, he's been in the spotlight for most of the last 40+ years in various media other than comic books. Spidey's been a little more sporadic in the general public eye.

    Please...don't comment on Superman, Hulk, Wolverine, Wonder Woman, Micky Mouse, Bugs Bunny, Popeye...or any other fictional character...

    ...this argument is between Batman and Spider-Man ONLY.

    I also don't want to hear who wins in a fight...this thread is about who is more famous and recognizable between the two.

    What says the masses?

    Batman or Spider-Man?
