I personally think Spawn should have beaten captain Marvel, and storm should have beaten Jean Grey

what are your thought on the bracket and the ending outcome?

    This ? is ? up from the gate with Supes beating the Silver Surfer.

    Cap over Wonder Woman??? Spider Man over the Hulk??? Batman over Iron Man??? GTFOH

    There HAS to all kinds of variables and ? that gave these results the victor in some of these match-ups.

    It's greatest, not strongest, and it's pretty much right except the last one is up for debate.

    Here's the reason batman always wins because he's just a human fighting crime when he doesn't have to . Every body

    else has super powers and all this other ? but he is still a man fighting crime every time he goes out to fight crime

    he can die even with all his gadgets and all that ? he is still just a man . If all the superheroes lost they powers

    would they still be superheroes would they still be risking their lives probably not

    Competition was rigged.

    These pop up all the time and unless you dictate terms the answers are subjective. This one looks like a popularity contest more than an actually who would win in an all out knockdown brawl.

    You also have to think about prep time. Batman with enough prep time can, 9 times out of 10 handle pretty much anyone on the list.

    you know what i cant stand about "prep time" ? act like batman going up against a static opponent, like ? cant change up their method or have methods of their own, tangent plans and ? .

    Perfect example is during the Bulls 90s run ? prepped for Jordan all the time. ? still took home six rings.
    Some people no matter what prep are just that much superior that they cannot be countered by human effort.

    Turning batman into bat ? "if he has prep" is some ? because it ignores that fact that people and situations constantly change and it makes thngs boring as ? .

    that's basketball ..... not fictional stories written with a predetermined outcome, now I explained how he always beats meta humans and why he always wins polls either except or write your own fan fiction where he loses to a ? that can lift 20 tons and is invulnerable who wasn't doing ? before he got his powers .

    Yes but the quality of fiction has to increase to keep pace with the general knowledge of the public.
    If you notice writers have to work harder to suspend the belief of the reader. Golden Age stories wouldn't
    work nowadays.

    Batman a human taking on metahumans of varying skills and strengths, and he does it without having to
    resort to fatal measures, but the joker still gives this ? problems, and/or a random assortment of goon squads
    who arent weighed down by a no ? policy

    Joker gives him trouble , you mean the dude that wants get caught on purpose . What criminal in the real word wants to be caught or does crimes so everybody knows who did it . Its a comic book ? doesn't make sense most of the powers don't make sense, some of motivations of heroes and villains don't make sense. They don't write stories so they will make sense they write stories to make dollars .

    I dont know why this keeps getting ignored.


    Batman is my fave comic book character. But I have a tremendous problem with his no ? policy. He could have saved THOUSANDs of lives by offing the Joker a long ass time ago.
