i guess it just depends on if you prefer watching intelligent/tact over power, similarly if you prefer watching jeopardy over fearfactor.

i just think it's more interesting to watch something amazing, unbelievable, magical even, over watching some dude figure out some puzzle to beat his opponent...just doesn't make for very entertaining media i don't think

and i think a white skull is def more dignified and frankly cooler than a suite with pointly ears made to look like bat ears...

Yes as a matter of fact it is interesting to watch people with superpowers, because as you said it is almost magical. But with these magical feats we already know the magic and how it is going to be used. It is as if you have seen the ending of the match before it even begins. Because the superhero with his or her power will always win because they just discovered that they had other abilities.

But with a match with someone without superpowers the posibility for victory is less than none. Because one slip up and you are dead. There are no powers to protect the first time around. It is even more magical, No... interesting to see how this person is going to get out of this situation alive. Because this person will have to go through different tactics while trying to stay alive. Attacks have to planned tratigically or else (you see in his world death is a constant)

And yes the white skull is dignified but there is no way it is cooler than the bat suit. Its like saying war machine's suit is crap compared to craven the hunter.

ok but superheros such as Superman don't just fight normal humans....the creators of the comics create supervillans that are a challenge to him...same for other heros....you've got spiderman and then you've got doc ock, or mysterio, or venom, etc...you've got the x-men and then you've got apocalypse, sabortooth, magneto, etc....anyway the point is that you can't use the villans the hero's face as an argument cause the creators specifically make villans a challenge for each hero...so batman has his villans and superman has his, green lantern has his, etc...so the stories in the comics never get old because the powers or being are always equally matched....

my originally point was that it's more fun to watch someone with superhuman abilities fight against someone else with superhuman abilities because it brings things to a whole new level, a new playin field that we might not have imagined if it weren't for the creators of the comics...

batman is just an extremely good detective...like a sherlock holmes but with some cool gadgets and a suite...if i wanted to watch detective work i'd put on 'CSI' or 'Law and Order'....or better yet if i wanted to watch a normal human fight a normal human i'd watch boxing or real wrestling where you have to use just as much tact and skill as you use strength, speed and stamina
