Batman is stripped off all of his gear and is given a bowie knife. Can he kill.....

A Lion
A tiger
A bear (Oh my)

(A ten minute rest)

An elk
A hippo
A pack of wolves

and finally , a silver-back gorilla.

Jabba the Hutt
Probably, but I would really love to see a lion eating batman.

Pffftt. laughing out loud

Hey , hippo's kill more people in africa then lions ......

The only one I can see him taking is the elk. I honestly doubt Batman, in his never ending struggle against the forces of evil, has devoted a great deal of time to human-animal combat.

This is true...

Batman has a better chance of trapping these animals than he does fighting them, if he goes for a h2h kill, he is going to be ko'd and eaten

even by the elk

RESPECT elk lol

True. I've seen a hippo once in this game reserve at night .....we had to be escorted with armed guards from our bungalows to the main dining hall.
Those things are death on legs ......they are fast (hippopotamus means River Horse in Greek), they have very good senses, and Bull males are armed with huge tusks (that are razor sharp, and are in a mouth that can open to almost 180 degrees). During our first night we were shown a tusk (actually enlongated canines for fighting) from a hippo, and that thing was huge. Longer than my forearm.
Apparently they re known to bite people in 3 when they attack.

Anyways, I can see Batman taking care of all the animals here (including the Gorilla) ....all but the hippo.
A bowie knife is simply not long enough to penetrate far enough to seriously jeopardize the health of any adult hippo (the skin alone is an inch thick, and then there is the deep layer of muscle .....what looks like fat is actually mostly muscle, but there is a respectable outer layer of fat ....and then there is the bone). A bowie knife simply will not do.

Although being Batman he will probably just use the bowie knife to make wooden throwing spikes (like the wooden knives Alfred made for him in Batman:BloodStorm for him to use against Dracula), and just throw them at the Hippo's eyes (and with his throwing abilities he would probably blind the beast).

Or he could have a pit lined with sharpened wooden stakes ....that have several-day-old human feces smeared on their tips to act as a crude but EXTREMELY effective poison if any of the bacteria swarming over them get into the bloodstream ....someone say septimacea ....and obviously Batman would provide the crud to smear on the spikes he would have fashioned with the bowie knife.

That is a way he can take care of the Hippo ....although by far it would be the most dangerous beast he would face (he has already faced off against the wild cats .....in one case against an enclosure of several of them without his belt .....and as for the Gorilla he has faced off against an intelligent gorilla (Mallah) and a psychic gorilla (Grodd), thus a normal gorilla shouldn't be much of a problem.
If Catman could take care of Mallah by stabbing it (in Villain's United) then Batman can certainly do the same to a 'normal' gorilla of the wild.

Meh. I've seen Hal Jordan solo multiple polar bears when he lost his ring. Bats would probably walk through all but the hippo.

Batman kills pretty much all of them. Together.

Let's see, he's already choked out one big cat, and snapped the neck of another, as far as I know. He's KOed a hallway full of physically enhanced, intelligent gorillas using pressure points. PETA does not support Batman...

Hippos are apparently absolute monsters, but cmon people... He's freaking Batman. The dude was kicking trees in half as a teenager. Scarebeast catching him unawares and unarmed in Wayne Manor can pose a problem. But a hippo? I see him backflipping over the hippo's gaping mouth, landing on its back, and kicking the top of its head off, before the hippo has time to close its jaw. Not because its physically possible, but because he's Batman. Respect.

Man he won't get past bear. I have a shitload of sweet comics where Bear totally rips into the Hulk and the Hulks all "WOAH YOU NEARLY KILL HULK GOOD THING TIGER THERE TO STOP YOU! RAR!"


Bear would totally kill Batman. But as long as Bear gets time to prepare.

Probably, but I've been wanting to use those scans for ages, so it works out either way.

Batman could totally beat the crap out of PETA. Or at the very least, they can't catch the Batmobile. Nothing is faster than the Batmobile.

That's probably the greatest thing ever. And people say Thanos can't fly...

Seriously though. Seriously. Not faster than the Batmobile. Close, maybe, but... NOTHING is faster than the Batmobile.

WTF? Dude the 80's (I asume) weren't good to Thanos.

DraconaInVolata
I think every Marvel character had a really bad moment. Here's Electro's. Possibly the most embarassing defeat ever. http://electrowned.ytmnd.com/

and people wonder why my fiancee didn't want Electro in SM3.

wow. Some villian Electro is...

Hippo's eat batman , although the feces smeared stake-pit is a pretty damn good idea.

A grizzly bear would kill Batman with one smack. And hippo's have too much blubber to be harmed by little daggers.

Superherovandal
i doubt it. Seeing as he's held his own pretty good with Killer Croc on numerous occasions who I'm sure is stronger and faster than a grizzly bear.

yeah, thats when he had his kevlar bat suit. we're talking about bruce with nothing apart from a small dagger- which would only accomplish pissing the bear off. and they may seem lazy but they are actually faster that humans. and bears are pretty ****ing strong and intimidating..standing at around 8 feet. grizzlies can weigh as much as 1500 lbs, and i know Bruce doesnt lift that much. Once the bear lands on him, its game over. it would proceed to devour his face. plus one clean hit would break his neck. Bear 9/10.
