Stephen's IQ is above 200.
As for Kid Flash, I don't know enough about him, I just mean I hate the Superboys and Batgirls and Supergirls and Spiderwomen, etc. They did a great job coming up with Wonder Woman and Catwoman all by themselves, why they can't create more unique female characters I don't know. I don't particularly like child characters anyway, just like I loathe child actors.
Except Haley Joel Osmont. That kid's got it.

Becasue He is human and he cannot break the human limit and To do this he has to have some kind of superpower?
Or you guys just ticted because he can do alot of things without the need for superpowers?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA you guys are killing me with laughter. But Please do go on.
batman's writers just exaggerate batman toooo much. let me give you a few examples:
1.) batman mastered what, about 50 forms of martial arts and he is only 30 or something? 1 martial art discipline could take almost a lifetime mastering, can you tell me how batman mastered all those martial arts while growing up and managing wayne enterprises? the only explanation i have for you is this: EXAGGERATION
2.) batman fights crime all night, finds time to work out, finds time to create new gizmos, finds time to manage wayne enterprises, hangs out with jla, flirts with girls, researches on criminals... well let me tell you, there are only 24 hrs in each day. when the hell does this man sleep?!! again, EXAGGERATION of his character. humanly impossible.
3.) batman is a billionare. what the hell is wayne enterprises suppose to be doing business with to earn that much money?
4.) asides from his sidekicks, batman has only got his butler as company in his house. who the hell helps him make all his gadgets like the batplane? don't tell me he's an engineer and carpenter too!
1) He's genius level, and probably master’s martial arts like Phoebe did when she cast a genius spell. A lot faster than you or I, although he probably wasn't a seventh Dan. He may have skipped several grades.
2) He catches several hours after three, when ladies rarely come out to get mugged, and delegates enough paper work to catch daylight hours of sleep.
3) I have a suspicion he's a benevolent form of that bloke in “Pretty Woman”, one who helps companies up, buys land and all that junk.
4) He is. Sorry to enlighten you.
im not a big batman fan, i dont really consider him human because nothing's really human about him, except he has pain when he gets hurt...which even wolverine has
as for him skipping levels in Aikido, im in aikido, my sensei is 49 and he's a fifth dan, been in it since he was 25 and went to his dojo and studied with his sensei every single day till he was 41 and his sensei died, which would make it impossible to accomplish what bruce wayne accomplished while also learning ninjutsu, muay thai, karatedo, and a number of other martial arts
lets just say its not called martial art for nothing

Didn't he have a mechanic? Yes, he did, but the name of Harold ... mute dwarf, used to work for the Penguin. Before he had Harold (and since he lost them, I suppose), he used Wayne Tech technology. None of this information is terribly obscure.
To Whom It May Concern: We have records of people composing symphanies at age three or something, but when someone shows a similiar degree of talent with martial arts, we scream that nobody could do that, because we couldn't, or because nobody we know could do that? Pff. Still, I think the "Batman has mastered every form of martial arts/fifty forms of martial art/whataver" thing may be a fanboyism; I've read hundreds of comics, and I haven't seen it stated anywhere. He may well have lifted techniques from that many styles, but that's not the same thing.
actually its in the comics, i cant believe you have read a batman comic and never read about that
sure i cant be a martial arts master, but with all the martial arts its just impossible for a human to become a master in 50 of them, and yes someone composed a famous symphony at three, but not a famous symphony for 50 other different types of music also
a martial art is something that has to come with discipline, time, and for some complete knowledge of ones self and the persuit of all kinds of religion
i dont know about bruce wayne mastering that many though
*comes in*
Hello! Lets set some facts straight! 😉
1) batman does not know ALL the martial arts, nor has he in anyway mastered more then 10 styles. The problem with Batman is that he has a nasty habbit of choosing which specific branch he trains in.
besides him beeing a master at Hapkido/KungFu/NinJutusu there really arnt that many you call mention, what? Like the great Batman is gonna brag about ****ing Judo? *laughs*
Then, did everyone forget he's a ninja! Ninja's are just, in general, very bad-ass, and batman just happend to be trained by one of the most bad-ass Ninja's in the Batman Universe, namely; Ra's. he isnt some kind of superninja or anything, he is most probably the best ninja in the world...But in no way is he some kind of super power T_T.
2) Intelligence...Batman is smart, but thats about it. Some call him a Genius, but those fammiliar with the Vrox Drill's out there alongside Reed will know that Batmans inteligence is above average, at best. He is just another guy who happens to be good at what he does. namely; Detective stuff....
3) Most of his stuff comes straight from the Wayne Enterprises, created by this nifty fellow called Lucius Fox, Batman just "enhanced" most of it, and even that was done by a mechanic and not ol bats himself. Seeing how the mech is dead, i dont know how batman keeps upgrading his stuff everynow and then...But i do rememeber Alfred f*cking around with some stuff, so its very likely Alfred knows his way around in the cave...
Batman is just serieusly over-rated, but thats about it...
well there we go, ponem basically just set it straight
of course even ninjutsu, hapkido, and kungfu being mastered is a task i think is a little exaggerated, mostly because ninjutsu is something i read the most books about, with the authors being the leading masters of the martial art.......but this is a comic book and thats what basically makes it fun, i still dont really consider batman a human being in the sense of you or me

Who the crap is Phoebe?
It still doesn't add up. For me, the "most realistic because he's human" hero is the least realistic because he's human.

He enrolled in martial arts classes since he was 8!!!he is 35 something now...NATURALLY he'll be an expert...what's so unbelievable about that?!And man!does he have flaws...
Even if there is a way to manage all Batman's activities, it hurts the concept of a normal man being a hero because he's not a normal man anymore. He's a multiple extremely gifted person with ungodly will and mental fortitude.
