Persuasive Speech

Batman is human, not some superhero with special abilities. He simply has cool gadgets. He doesn't know anything about Spiderman, so how could he possibly figure out his insecurities? Not one punch or kick from Batman would even harm Spidey in the least. If Batman got hit with a spool of web, which he would, this contest is over before it started.

Titus, Bats is a detective. It is his life to learn the secrets of his enemies. Example: at one point Batman was expelled from the Justice League because he spent weeks researching the backgrounds and secrets of the other JLA members. He formed an airtight plan with which he could cripple any of the JLA members should they go rogue. That means Batman, a normal guy with no superpowers, is and was capable of taking down Superman (who is basically immortal), Wonder Woman (same), Green Lantern (who can split atoms with his power ring), Aquaman (the sole ruler of all of Atlantis), Martian Manhunter (10 times the badass that Spiderman is) and the Flash (who can move so fast he can travel through time). Batman was intellectually capable of learning the worst fears and secrets of the most powerful characters in the DC universe. Cracking the Peter Parker egg would take minutes for a guy like him.

Batman wins. No contest.

Good argument.

Want some advice on stepping it up? Take Aquaman out of that list. We know he's supposed to be in there... Yes, he's a member of the Justice League, but... well, he's Aquaman.

But he's the sole ruler of Atlantis!!!!

Bob, I, like every other comic nerd in the world, understand completely that Aquaman is a fucking joke. That's beside the point, however.

The guy can command sharks and whales to kick your ass. Sharks and whales. Batman can beat sharks and whales. Spiderman can't beat a Great White!

I guess I'm out of the loop with Comic books, and thank God. If they actually had the tenacity to have Batman defeat Superman, and all those others, a sad day has come over the comic book world. That is just ludicrous, and if you don't agree with that.. I don't know.

You can be the smartest guy in the world. If you are a human getting a single punch from a super-strong super hero, you will die instantly. Clear as day. Your ribs will calapse into your heart. Your head will be smashed in two. I just don't understand how the speed and strength of Superman was defeated? Granted Spidey is no Superman, but he is certainly 100 times stronger than Batman.

Comic books now suck in my mind. I have an itch to go a burn all 1000+ comic books I own. Or sell them.

well....i am kind of going for batman now, ok you see titus in the justice league show on cartoon network, i saw this episode where he was fighting this guy that could smash WONDER WOMAN, which she also has super strength.... and i saw him HIT batman and batman still got back up.... so if i go by the show, i would now say batman would win, besides in that show he does very smart things like how wonder woman is attractive to him and wants to date him but batman declines even though he likes her too because they would just capture wonder woman batman would go after her

1 word for you titus: Kryptonite.

What a hero! He can pick up tanks, fly, and all this other spiffy stuff, but throw a certain rock at him and he's fucked. Pft.

Heh, I guess you have to give him some sort of downfall. So, what is Spidey's kryptonite?

Mary Jane maybe?

Heh, that motivates him if anything.

Heh, I guess you have to give him some sort of downfall. So, what is Spidey's kryptonite?

I already told you: his post-teenage insecurities.

Titus, Batman doesn't win his fights by simply beating the hell out of his opponents. He does it by outsmarting them. In fact, his greatest victories have been accomplished with no violence at all, just a keen intellect and the villainous knowledge of how to use his opponent's emotional weaknesses against them.

Not all battles are fought with fists. Batman fights with his mind, and with that brain he has crippled his enemies in legions.

1 word for you titus: Kryptonite.

And red-colored ultrviolet light...and he can't see through lead.

Plus, Spiderman does not really have any destructive powers with the exception of his amazing strength... Which is no match for the Batmobile...

Spiderman: "Let's see how you stand up to my spidey-punch!!!"

Batman: *Laugh as he presses the red button to launch the rocket into Spiderman's face*

Example please.

And c'mon now. Is that the best you can do? Poison Spidey to win? Let me hear how he would cripple Spidey without throwing a fist or any combatitive move.

Gladiator would pwn Batman any day.
