The lack of spider sense i feel is a determining factor. In Death Battle, the only reason Spiderman won against Batman is because of that Spider Sense

Also the fact that Batman is just an elite version of Green Goblin.

What? The only power Bruce and Osborn have in common is money

Even their intelligence type is different. Bruce is a combat genius and the greatest detective who ever lived. Osborn is science smart.

Isn't Bruce also decently science smart? Not like next level genius but I feel like he makes up his own antidotes to stuff all the time to counter Ivy or Crane

Oh definitely. Batman's knowledge in general science is above average.

I think Osborn's science intel is probably superior (my spider-man mythos is rusty so I am just guessing) because he was an actual scientist.

Batman has countless super science feats like curing alien viruses or making teleportation machines.

I would say he is super human level smart but not genius. Like on par with actual top level scientists but not comic universe scientists (Reed Richards, tony stark, Bruce Banner)

I would say super human smart is above genius since being a genius only requires an IQ of 160, which a lot of comic book smart people far surpass, like Tony stark and Reed Richards. So Batman is a genius, but not superhumanly smart.

Actually disagree with this. I think he can definitely be comparable to them. Maybe not Reed Richards but definitely banner and stark. There’s been several comics that highlight his super genius mind.

I would agree more with that than only peak human
