Just like if I had a gun with Kryptonite bullets Superman would have long since been dead....read Drole's explanation and add to it...that is the point of comics....is that you have ordinary people do the extraordinary.

Which is why if you think about it...no one would really do these things for real...hence the movie Kick Ass

Of course they wouldn't, it's just that it doesn't take much to get rid of Batman. That's all I'm saying. Kick Ass is what Batman would be like IRL. lol

That's not accurate at all...Kick Ass and Batman are nowhere near alike.

You cannot put those two in the same ballpark

Kick Ass is just an average joe with no resources at all

Batman doesn't get hit when you shoot at him. Neither does Spiderman. That's the point. Batman would have already known you were there, set up a decoy and taken you out from behind. Spidey would have felt the danger and swung away while webbing you. You can't use "Earth" logic when in the comic-book world. Doesn't work.

Not my fault you didn't love superheros as a kid and have an active imagination.

I, on the other hand, was alternately Robin/Batgirl/ an X-man/ etc.

What are the terms? Whip vs. blaster? No ship I assume.

Batman only has money and he's a martial arts expert. Bill Gates has a ton of money, too, and if he was a martial arts expert, I'd like to see how long he would survive in Detroit. Daemon, all I'm is, is that Batman, even as a fictional character is not realistic. I mean, no superhero is, it's just that the ones who have super-human strength are more believable as fictional characters. I know that doesn't make much sense, but I don't know how to really explain it.

I disagree, and I think you're probably in the minority on this one. Especially since Batman is one of the most well-developed characters, worlds and probably one of the least ret-conned ones too.

But as Drole said, you can't think of these folks on a real world term...and actually if you wanted to pit Batman with someone on an equal level, put him against Black Panther....king of Wakanda. ;)

I made a mistake the other day and said Christie Hyne instead of Carrie Fischer and my coworkers won't let me get away with it. This goes to show that A. I need to not think about other things than what I'm saying and B. they think I'm serious when I say "Hans Solo."

:(
