Batman VS Spiderman poll

[Hector]

the reason why he could beat Supes is because of krypto and let's be honest anyone who could get it would win

THANK YOU!

I really get good laughs when people freely say Batman has defeated Superman in the past...but like you said...that's because of the usage of kryptonite...even a 12 year old child can defeat Superman using Kryptonite.

So every time they use that one...it's really a rolling up eyes moment for me...lol.

Batman is CHEATING, folks.

Without kryptonite...Superman farts...Batman dies...end of story...

If Batman can take out Superman

Oh boy...here we go again with the sci-fi stuff...

It always seemed to me when the DC/Marvel stories came out in rare form in the 80s. For some reason the DC characters alway found away to win.
I remember the Superman one where he was tricked into punching Spiderman and he caught himself halfway through the punch and he stopped and the force from that knocked Spidey through several buildings. Imagine what would have happened if that punch would have went through full force? They would have been scrapping Spidey off the moon.
Then the Hulk vs Batman one was classic. Batman gases the Hulk and the Hulk manages to hold his breath. So the Bats takes a one in a million martial arts shot and lands his foot into the mid sternum of the green goliath and he depletes his air and sucks in and there goes the gas up Hulk's snout and he drops unconscious.
Those big book issues were classics in my childhood daze. Yet, we never saw a Spidey vs. Batman. Maybe one day DC and Marvel will get to that.

Does anyone see Batman anywhere in this picture?

Even DC knew that Batman would get creamed

Nahh, Batman got the Hulk instead.

Of course, there would be the obligatory misunderstanding and ****ing match, but they would be working together by page 10.

And Frank Miller would have Bats calling Spidey "punk" at least 50 times before the last page.

This would be a great battle to me. The thing about Spidey and Batman both is that they generally take a licking before finally taking their tougher foes out. Neither would quit.

Despite Spidey's power advantage, I think Batman would ultimately win if the two ever feuded. He's more ruthless and has more resources. Spidey's also too good of a guy. He has the power to maim or kill Batman at any time, but he wouldn't do it.

While Batman is not a killer, he would go right up to the edge. Spidey's just not as mean.

But I really can't think of a scenario that would put them at odds for very long. Of course, there would be the obligatory misunderstanding and ****ing match, but they would be working together by page 10.

^^ Best, LOGICAL argument of the night.

(Adjusts his nerd/geek cap)

OK, two of my favorite characters going head to head. Let's see:

BATMAN: Pros - Master martial artist, cunning, stealthy and sneaky. Carries a Bat-ton of gadgets and weaponry. Expert strategist and planner. Can and will fight dirty if need be.
Cons - No super powers, normal human at peak physical condition. Regular human weaknesses (not buletproof, etc.).

SPIDER-MAN: Pros - Proportionate strength (can press at least 10 tons), speed, and reflexes of a spider. Wall crawling ability. Faster and more agile than a normal human (can dodge bullets). Spider-sense alerts him of danger, meshed with his fighting style making him difficult to hit.
Cons - It's been established he'll hold back from using his full power when fighting due to fear of crippling or killing an opponent. Carry-over guilt from his Uncle Ben's death.

Truth be known, this fight could go either way. Batman has an edge based on his years of experience (he's likely older than Spidey), which would cause him to research and plan for damn near any eventuality if he knew he was going to fight Spidey. This could involve traps of a physical or psychological nature (playing on Spidey's guilt feelings, or the fact that he knows Spidey holds back).

However, as good as Batman is, he's still human. He'll eventually tire in prolonged combat with Spidey. Plus, Spidey has the edge over Batman in speed and agility - in theory he could land a dozen blows on Batman before he knew what happened, and use his spidey-sense to dodge any blow or Batarang thrown at him. His spidey-sense is an integral part of his fighting style, as his is taunting and bad jokes - Spidey can get very annoying, which usually cheeses off his opponents so much they let anger take over and they make mistakes. Also, Spidey's webbing is a very effective distance weapon. Cover Batman with enough webbing, and before Batman can cut his way through, Spidey could plant a haymaker on him.

Another point to consider - Spidey did take out Captain America, Batman's analog when it comes to fighting in the Marvel Universe.

If I were a betting man, I gotta give this one to Spidey, especially if Batman isn't expecting a battle. If he is though, it'll be a much closer fight, but I'd give the edge to Spidey anyway just because of his powers.

Spiderman Whooped his *****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

^^ Maybe in your own comic book universe mind (just messing with you Anthony)

Yes, I know they were the flagship characters and it wasn't about strength. If it had been about strength, they would have put Hulk against Superman at the time.

At any rate...the captain at the top of the comic reads: "The Greatest Superhero Team-up of All Time"

I know you all have a thing for Batman, and I'm sorry he was left out, but it's simply a matter of "super"-heroes fighting each other, not gadget-heroes.

I've always maintained that Batman is not a super-hero. He has no powers at all except a ton of money, an extremely intelligent mind, and some very cool gadgets.

But if a super-hero fights a gadget-hero, there is NO contest. Spiderman wins. Period.

while Bats is the coolest of all time, I gotta agree, there's no way Spidey loses

Too easy. The big black bat dines the spider...

Batman. 'nuff said.

[The Toyroom]

^^ Of course I've read that book. That is not the point young padiwan.

My point is simply this: The people at DC put SUPERMAN up against Spider-man, not Batman when they were creating the story. Even they knew that Batman was no match for Spider-man - only Superman would make the story work.

Dude I'm a freakin' comic book Jedi Master

Anyway, the reason Superman and Spider-Man were chosen because at the time this was produced was because they were each company's respective flagship character and this was a potential one shot deal. Had nothing to do with who was stronger, etc.

Plus in the DC/Marvel universe Batman took on the Hulk in a subsequent team-up...If it was all about strength then the natural thing would have been to pair Superman with The Hulk and Spider-Man with Batman. Cause as everyone knows Hulk is the strongest one there is and even Spidey pales to Ol' Greenskin.

Here is the fight. On film. See it with your own eyes. And let this put it all to rest.
