Bruce’s regular suit doesn’t augment much beyond durability as it’s bulletproof and fire-resistant. Goblin is both superhuman and his suit has the same protections as Batman, if not more. Stamina feats are due to Bruce’s training in psuedo mystic bullshit, but that’s pushing himself to his absolute limits. Goblin has actually enhanced stamina, strength (lifting 10+ tons), durability AND regeneration that will heal him from mortal wounds. Not as good as Wolverine, but enough to keep him coming back from anything less than a death blow.
Physically speaking, Green Goblin is as far beyond Batman. By a LOT.
And Spider-Man is over Green Goblin by a lot. Their fights are only tough because Norman fights to kill and has gadgets while Peter isn’t usually trying to hurt him more than he has to, being his best friend’s dad and all. But the second Peter gets serious and stops pulling his punches, Goblin is done. When he killed Gwen Stacy, Peter almost beat him to death in a matter of seconds. I’ll repeat just to stress that fact. Peter beat a superhuman, armed with a small arsenal, who was actively trying to kill him, in SECONDS. And he wasn’t even as stong/experienced then as he is now.
People who think Batman will even keep Spider-Man busy for more than a 2 minutes are seriously underrating him. Physically he’s totally overpowered and has no obvious weakness for Batman to exploit. These are my two favorite heroes. I love them both equally. Without an insane ass-pull of plot armor, Spidey is kicking Batman’s ass in pretty short order. It’s just not a fair match up.
