If I were to make an educated guess having only basic information on both, I'd say the Punisher would be stronger by quite a bit... but since these things are decided by whose feats are greater, then Batman is the stronger of the two.

why would you believe the smaller, less biult older man,would be in better shape then the MA fighter who constantly trains and has the ebst of everything to work with, and is also larger biuld and young then frank........

gotta say that does not sound very educated to me........

What if Frank had broken unbreakable chains?

you mean garenteed unbreakable chains? he have a strength feat that almost no street leveler could make in that area, however it alsp could be easily argued as pis.

Yeah, I know. I didn't say Frank wins. I just disagree that it'd be easy. *shrug*

batman wins

bruce gets so pumped up after watching over the top with Sylvester stallone he accidentally rips franks arm off

Smaller and less-built? The Punisher has consistently been drawn as a heavily-built guy, and written as a guy who puts a great deal of emphasis on strength training and weightlifting.

Batman is big but has a more athletic build than anything, which makes sense considering he does acrobatics and needs that flexibility and speed to suit his fighting style.

I think Batman is probably the near the same height as Castle, but not nearly as big-framed as him. Batman still has better strength feats, but if I didn't know much about either except for some background info and physical stats, I'd think Castle would be that much stronger.

Castle's like 6'1'' and 200 lbs. Batman's 6'2'' and 240.

Bingo. Batman wins as easily as Cap would beat Frank.

Yeah, I know all about the weight stats, but I don't give them too much merit, especially on the Marvel side. They've been making Frank bigger over the years, and he started off a pretty big guy himself. Wolverine is said to weigh 300lbs with the adamantium skeleton, and he's also been drawn bigger than in the past. Juggernaut is said to weigh 900lbs, nevermind the fact that he just barely fits on panel. Same with Hulk. Colossus who is stated to weigh in about about 500lb in his armored form....

It's like the creators gathered around and decided that a 6ft 200lb man seemed overwhelming, and proceeded to throw around numbers that seemed extremely heavy. I'm 5'8" and weigh 230lb. I'm muscular but no way do I look like Castle, who looks more like a 300lb pro wrestler than a guy just barely hitting the 200lb mark.

You think Punisher would have any sucess against Cap in armwrestling? That's about as much sucess that he'll have against Batman.

No, because Cap is chemically and radioactively enhanced. Batman and Punisher are two normal humans who train almost nonstop when they're not kicking the crap out of people. In comics, Batman would be stronger, after comparing their best on-panel strength feats.

On a real life perspective, I'd put my money on Castle to win any contest of strength. Whereas Batman puts more emphasis on honing fighting skills and keeping in top overall shape, Castle puts most of his emphasis on strength training.... which is why I'm saying if I knew nothing about either character other than some basic knowledge and photos, I would easily assume Castle would be the stronger of the two.

Punisher.

He'd cheat.

Batman has been shown lifting just as much as Cap. He's lifted 1,100 pounds before as well, held up debris of a fallin building, and I'm sure he around Cap's ballpark if not equal in strength.

Surprisingly enough you don't have to be big to be strong. You guys ever see when bruce lee was working out. He had arms out working out his shoulders holding like well over 100lbs and he is like a stick.

Anyway Bruce is gonan win imo.

No, you don't have to be big to be strong. Bruce Lee was hardly a stick, though. He was smaller than a lot of other guys, but he was also leaner and in better shape. He was strong , but he wasn't puny.

I dont get hot people can assume Frank is stronger then batman even with out looking at feats

Batman taller, broader, has good 40 pounds a Punisher constantly training in h2h combat and utilizing it. He also is extremely reach giving him the best of everything to work with.

Punisher older, he spend majority of his training in guns, he constantly on the run and on his vendetta leaving far less time for physical training then Batman. He also does not have the money or resources that Batman posses, and on top of that has been injure numerous times, and has received no where near the medical treatment some one like Batman could easily have accesses to.

Even with out feats this is a no brainer.

Sounds more like bias to me then anything for people to assume Punisher is stronger, though maybe I am the one being bias. I am not trying to take a shot at anyone, but from the logical stand point I see, there simply no way punisher should be stronger, even with out viewing feats

K maybe not a stick but the point I was getting was that he was alot alot stronger than I would have guessed if I didn't know who he was. One day I wanna be that ripped!

Anyway The bat wins.

Batman is probably just as old. Besides, speed and endurance diminish a lot quicker as you age than power. Some of the most recognizable names in weightlifting and bodybuilding are over or pushing 50, and still competing well enough.

As far as training, both are out on their vendettas against crime around the clock, so I don't believe that Batman would have that much more time to train than Castle. Wealth is rather irrelevant considering free weights are better for building strength and maintaining flexibility than weight machines, and it doesn't look like Castle has a problem getting enough to eat either. Those injuries you mentioned haven't slowed Castle down much, if at all. Looks like he didn't need that cutting edge medical treatment after all.

Batman, for the most part, has appeared lean and muscular. It wasn't until fairly recent in his history that he's been drawn with more muscle mass. The Punisher, in contrast, has always been a heavily-built guy, and he's even bigger now. Just by looking at drawings throughout the years, it's pretty easy to assume Castle would be stronger.

putting aside the two guys medical records which would leave both guys pretty screwed and unlikely to walk and make it to the table i would have assumed the same thing about frank being naturally stronger then bats. but, these are comic book characters and neither are consistent as to how big and strong they should be having said that both would cheat to try to get the win but bats would use a hand pressure point and screw pun out of the win when his hand goes numb.

I'm not sure if they've ever been drawn by the same artist for a lengthy run, but I don't think I could be bothered to research it too much.

I know Jim Lee has done some awesome work on Batman recently. I found a page full of Punisher sketches he did in the early 90s, but his look varies between sketches.
