Batman is not a real superhero. He's just a rich man with expensive tools, amirite?

You could say the same about Iron Man. They're still super badass tho!

He's a hero. Just not a SUPERhero, per se.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

He's still super, because he's uber smart and has technology that no one else has access to.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yeah, but he has no powers. So he's really just an average hero.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yeah, but how many other "heroes" do you know that do the same thing as him?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

If by 'the same thing' you mean go around the city saving people and defeating villains, then basically all of them.

I've never seen an average hero take down two face, Joker, Lex Luthor, Penguin, Bain, Clay Face or figure out the Riddlers riddles.

Well obviously no two heroes are going to fight the exact same battles. That would just be weird.

I think that makes him more of a hero because he is just an average guy trying to help people... A better role model in a way

by Anonymous 13 years ago

He's using his money to help people in super ways. That makes him a super hero.

Iron man (costume), Green Lantern (ring), Lex Luthor (super villain), Green Arrow, Hawkeye and I'm sure many more.

I am not sure if Green Arrows sidekicks count. Isn't most of Green Lantern Inc. just superheroes just because of the emerald rings

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yes, I just didn't include sidekicks, but yeah Speedy doesn't have superpowers, Robin, Nightwing, Batgirl, Batwoman, oh and also Cat Woman and Black Cat. And yeah, they're all just aliens and they might be considered "super" here, but they wouldn't be in their home planets, which brings me to the Martian Manhunter, who has super powers on Earth, but is just an average Martian on Mars

Superman and Superboy are aliens too. Wonder Woman and Wonder Girl is an Amazon women but it is normal with her Amazon sisters. Aquaman and Aqualad are kind of normal to underwater cities like Atlantis.

Hmm, I thought Wonder Woman was the only one of her kind to have the powers she does? And Wonder Girl is just a younger Princess Diana (which is weird, because I thought she became Wonder Woman after she became a woman...) And you're right about Superman and Superboy. I can't tell you about Aquaman/lad, but I mean they are on the planet earth so I don't know if they count as aliens or what. But that would also mean Prince Namor the Submariner was normal. But I don't think all of the people of Atlantis have that power, I think they just have that power, because they're the leaders or something

Batman is sex. He can be whatever he wants to be. :D

God, it pisses me off when people say this. I'm pretty damn sure he would be dead by now(or...dead for real) if he was just some rich dude with fancy toys. Sure, his wealth has certainly helped him in his crimefighting(I won't even get started on how he wouldn't even be the same person if his father's family hadn't been rich), but wealth didn't buy him his knowledge and mastery of many different types of martial arts, did it? /mini-rant

With a cape, you forgot about the cape!

But most rich people don't help others... Really... If I see bill gates put on a mask and go kick ass I would call him a super hero as well.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

You say most rich people don't help others and then go on to name someone who's donated billions to charity.
