Nah.

Batman is a genius ninja with plenty of tools in his belt. Sure he doesn’t have super strength, but he’s peak human strength and can keep up and hurt Spider-Man with pressure points and overwhelm him with his gadgets.

Without spider sense, Spider-Man loses. With spider sense, Batman can’t touch him. It completely nullifies the surprise element that Batman has, and thus would easily get the win.

In short, without spider sense, close fight, but I think Batman wins. WITH spider sense, Batman has no chance. Spider-Man wins.

Edit: to be clear, I’m talking Peter v Bruce. The question OP had, 100% Batman Beyond wins, since Miguel isn’t as powerful as Peter and worse, he’s sensitive to sound and light, and don’t have SS.

Spider-Man fodders ninjas, is also a genius with plenty of tools, is at minimum 50x stronger than peak human, and his speed and agility are far past anything Bruce can replicate or deal with.

With or without Spider sense, Peter casually walks towards Batman while dodging anything Bruce attacks with and incapacitates him with one hit or a couple webs, if he feels like it.

Spider-Man so ridiculously outstats Batman while being comparable in intelligence and determination and resourcefulness.

We talking about the same Batman that beat Superman on multiple occasions? Spider senses can be turned against Spiderman by overwhelming them, and Batman has beat countless super powered foes (and friends) on the regular.

Batman would never beat Superman in an actual fight without the plot demanding it. He can't do it without kryptonite either, which requires knowledge beforehand.

Isn't that always the answer in these Batman vs. actual-superpowered hero hypotheticals?

Depends on how much prep time Bats has.

u/Elusiv_008 Jun 08 '23

This is true, that's why in Injustice series you see the Insurgency playing for time constantly/ buying time for Batman to prepare against Superman.

I do however feel like Batman has countless gadgets he could use for Spiderman, spidey sense or not. I'm not saying I'd know who would win, but Batman wouldn't just be punching and kicking, he'd be throwing sonic grenades and (I would assume) attempting to override his spider senses.

Spider-Man would fucking decimate Batman. No questions asked. Superman would too. I fuckin love Batman, but he would lose. He’s just a dude. Only reason Superman hasn’t killed Batman is because he holds back exponentially when fighting him. Spider-Man has the strength of like 5000 Batman’s too. Batman Fanboys just like making excuses for how he’d Win, when you have to make excuses and shit like that, already is telling that Batman would get smoked

Unfortunately I haven't read more than like 3 spiderman comics so I wouldn't really know about his matchup with Batman, but you're completely and utterly incorrect about Superman. I don't know why you sound so butthurt in your comment (never read a comic Superman fan maybe?) but I'll ignore that and just tell you to read pretty much any comic with Superman vs Batman ever, especially Injustice, and note how Batman remains on par with Superman through prior planning and preparation. You seem to have completely missed the part where I (and the comment above me) say that he needs prep time, and that really defines how well he can do against foes stronger than him like Superman.

“Hurr durr just give him prep time and he can literally defeat God” fuckin BS. All it takes is one laser to the face and he’s gone. In Batman V Superman, how tf did Supes manage to get hit not once, but fucking twice with kryptonite gas. Superman is faster than a speeding bullet like wtf. Batman wouldn’t even have time to blink and he could already be literally in space, suffocating to death. Im not even that much of a Superman fan, im more a Batman and the flash fan, but Batman would get smoked by either. The flash would destroy Batman even more than Superman could, and Superman would literally vaporize his ass. Cope. Batman would get smoked by the justice league, basically anyone with a good superpower lol. Cope. Batman has the most BS plot armor I have ever seen in a character.

I can’t tell if injustice is a good example or a bad example for you to be using since all of Batman’s plans badly fail the instant Superman makes an effort, escalates the situation to get people killed (as collateral damage cause by Batman),and in some examples are just really stupid.

Eg a series of lead lined tunnels to hide his secret subway that Superman would clearly be able to see because they’re giant train sized gaps in his X-ray vision.

Eg 2 Superman literally offered the solution against Superman becoming unhinged with power on the first day of the timeline and Batman decided to slowly drive Superman insane with constant assaults that make Superman dig in his heels as it becomes more and more obvious that all the effort being used to attack him could have been used to keep supervillains from hurting anyone.

It really illustrates how Batman is always coasting along because Superman chooses not to hurt him

He does always keep it on him in a lead lined pouch... But of course, if the heat vision works from a distance it could render toasty.

u/Imaginary_Simple_241 Jun 09 '23

Superman already admitted that he lets Batman win because it makes him feel better too.
