My god, you’re unbelievable Never. This is getting boring, because you keep repeating yourself. You never gave me one (1) good reason why Batman actually could win a fight against Wolverine. Yeah sure, vague reasons a gogo (the old "he will outsmart Wolverine" trick again, "he will find something", “he is more a strategic genius”, “that is what he does…”), but you haven't still given me any solid proof. Solid proof, something a lawyer could use in a courtroom, not the “his brains”-blah blah again. Like tkitna pointed out, this only works when Batman possesses the files of Wolverine and has a week the time to produce some kind of trap/weapon against Wolverine. But in a direct fight, mano a mano, Batman will go down before Wolverine can say bub.
So, I still need solid proof.
Off course, I have to admit, I realize nobody can't really proof these things, because the outcome of such a battle depends on too much variables, such as inspiration and mood of the writer, popularity of the characters and perhaps the story. Therefore, the only way you can decide for your own who wins this fight, is to look at their statistics and abilities they possess on paper, and NOT to look at their past and say: “hey, this guy has beaten this other guy, so then he must be able…” That’s a very wrong way to decide an outcome of a fight. According to my point of view, looking at their abilities on paper it is the best and certainly the most honest way to compare them. Naturally, you may once in a while refer to some old battles, but than off course you have to realize that every hero has had his of her triumphs and defeats, so in the end, it means squat. Absolutely nothing. Each fight is different.
So, like I asked the last time very politely, don’t drag every hero into this while saying triumphantly : “See, see ! This weak villain has beaten Wolverine, so Batman can take him also”. You always, always refer to the Elektra vs Wolverine thing (it’s almost an obsession), but that has absolutely nothing to do with Batman against Wolverine. Newsflash, Never, Elektra isn’t Wolverine !! Like I said, stick to the subject please, being BATMAN vs WOLVERINE.
But I can play the same game naturally, and say that Bullseye, who is certainly not on the same level as Batman or Wolverine, once almost killed Elektra. It took him only a few minutes and yes, he was impressed by her fighting skills, but still, he humiliated her and almost killed her. And Bullseye is certainly not the great fighter as Wolverine or Batman is. But I assume you “forgot” this little detail. I can easily sum up other examples. But, then again, forget it, because like I said, it has nothing to do with a fight between Wolverine and Batman.
And obviously, you didn’t make a list of all the superpowered enemies that Wolverine has beaten like I requested, because you know very well that is too long a list to make and such a list will definitely weaken all your arguments !! You say it yourself, I quote : “You do it (making such a list). I am supporting Batman in this "debate" - what sense does it make for me to help you prove YOUR point?!).”
What sense does it make? Well, it’s called being OBJECTIVE (try it once), you know ! Only referring to comics which suit you, and ignoring all the other comics in absolutely every way possible isn’t very objective !!
So, back to the subject. On paper Wolverine is probably stronger, due to the fact that he has an adamantium skeleton and therefore is able to lift more weight. But I agree that Batman is almost as strong, so it really doesn't matter that much. The things that Wolverine has that Batman does not, are his great, sometimes animal fighting instinct, his berserker mode, his gigantic stamina (which is much greater than that of Batman), his unbreakable skeleton, his enhanced senses, his healing factor, the fact that he is waaay tougher than Batman and off course his loved claws. I think that both have about the same speed (roughly).
In a direct fight, this is a whole lot to handle for Batsie, he will have his hands full. Too full. He can throw anything he wants at Wolverine, he can use his 127 martial arts all at the same time, it won’t make a difference. Batman will probably go down after let’s say five minutes. But, if Batman gets to plan this fight for at least a week, than he has a fair chance. He could win, he could lose. Impossible to say…
So, I conclude:
1. Be objective, and don’t pick out the old battles that suit you and ignore all the many other battles which make Wolverine look almost like a semi fighting-god.
2. Give me any solid proof that Batman could win a direct fight against Wolverine, please without the retarded “ever analyzing and ever calculating mind”-thing. “He will find something… that is what he does” is just waaaay too vague. Than you can say that the Riddler actually might take on Thanos, because “the Riddler will find something…” Sigh.
3. Stick to the point please, it is Batman vs Wolverine, not uncle Ben vs Aunt May or whatever.
4. Believe it or not, but I actually like Batman more than Wolverine, but I can be honest and objective.
