Batman Vs. Spider-Man


it’s Gotham’s Caped Crusader versus New
York’s friendly neighborhood web slinger
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be pitting Batman vs spider-man to see
which is the greater superhero you don’t
really think he’ll win do you
things change round one origin let’s
begin with their origins both of which
have seen several retellings but remain
relatively consistent for Bruce Wayne
his life was defined by the murder of
his parents by a mugger when he was a
boy luckily he had a sweet inheritance
to back up his urge to fight crime and
make sure things like that would never
happen again as for Parker that orphan
was raised by his aunt and uncle after
his parents died in a plane crash after
being bestowed with incredible powers
from a radioactive spider bite his uncle
was killed by a burglar that Peter had
previously chosen not to stop Batman may
have originally helped create the tragic
superhero archetype but spider-man gave
the genre a unique spin by being
motivated by not just tragedy and
revenge but also by personal guilt round
two powers and accessories Batman
where’s the bat suit are regularly
modified and upgraded piece of armor
meant to strike fear into the hearts of
evildoers perhaps I should print
instructions first
with no real superpowers he instead
exploits martial arts forensics and
tools which include his Batarang
grappling gun cape smoke bombs and sweet
rides he also has a roomy Batcave
bustling with futuristic tech and cable
TV poor Spidey literally he has no money
could you pay me in advance you serious
thankfully he knows how to sew that’s
worth an a-plus in home AK Peter Parker
also uses his intellect to craft a more
modest set of devices such as his
patented web shooters and spiders racers
his powers include his spider sense
agility ability to climb walls and super
strength no lair though just an
apartment with a busted door despite
Spidey’s thrilling powers we’re going to
have to give this round to Batman the
bet oh man give me a break will you
round three alter-ego Batman is a stoic
hero who shares two
things in common with the joke slinging
spider-man both have been labeled a
vigilante Menace by the media and both
have made a stalwart pledge to never
kill in terms of their alter egos Bruce
Wayne is a resourceful billionaire that
pretends to be a notorious playboy as to
avoid arousing suspicion
while Peter Parker is a genius
high-school student who is shy geeky and
works as a freelance photographer for
the Daily Bugle I’m a photographer yes I
can see that we’re going to have to side
with the unassuming Peter on this one
because Bruce stands out as an obvious
Batman suspect he’s the richest man in
Gotham and owns an empire that produces
advanced technology and everyone can see
his chin you think that your client one
of the wealthiest most powerful men in
the world is secretly a vigilante who
spends his nights beating criminals to a
pulp with his bare hands and your plan
is to blackmail this person round for
foes and allies their mere existence has
spawned a new breed of criminal and both
have the best rogues gallery from DC and
Marvel so this will be a tough call
which will happily make anyway Spidey
has many countless memorable villains
that have always provided a solid fight
including Doc Ock the Green Goblin
Sandman venom the lizard and rhino these
animal themed Psychopaths have always
provided quite a lot of fun and
high-octane clashes which Spidey takes
on alone however
Batman’s villains have always seemed
much more iconic and deadly when
compared side-by-side we have to give
this point to the Dark Knight for having
to deal with such psychotics as the
Joker twoface the Riddler the penguin
Catwoman and Bane some men just want to
watch the world but Plus Batman has help
in the form of Commissioner Gordon his
trusty Butler Alfred teki Lucius Fox and
Robin we don’t hold as affinity for
young boys against him round five media
we’re not going to say which comic
series is better we love them both
instead we’re going to break the tie by
seeing which has done better off the
page
Batman has at a campy 60 series starring
Adam West – Tim Burton films – Joel
Schumacher nightmares and his own
award-winning animated series sure
Batman and Robin put the franchise on
ice for years but Christopher Nolan’s
epic trilogy redeemed it in terms of
video games
there’s the Arkham series nuff said
Spidey well his first two films by Sam
Raimi were fantastic then it got all emo
strawberries but he’s got his own
Broadway play several entertaining
cartoons and video games but you can see
where this is going by a score of three
to two
it seems that spider-man got squashed
under Batman’s boot at least Spidey
retains his lighter and more comedic
tone and doesn’t imitate Batman’s darker
and grittier oh never mind
agree with our judgment are you
infuriated by our sweeping
generalizations on you need a minute or
two alone boys be sure to comment
